"It was an honor and privilege to have had Senator Lara set the tone
for the rest of our conference . We greatly value his enthusiasm,
dedication to the environment and good character!"
- Marc Chasserot, Group CEO, shecco

POLICY TRENDS
01

“Super pollutants are much more harmful to the environment and to the detriment
of our health. We are linking climate legislation to our health. Reducing the use of
HFCs is part of our efforts to reduce super pollutants emissions.”
“Our cooling act allows us to use our market signals and our cap and trade system
to create an incentive program to switch into low GWP technology for refrigeration,
and move away from HFCs.”
“If you are interested in supporting the legislation we can help you draft a letter of
support. It makes a world of a difference, especially with our more moderate and
Republican representatives. We would greatly appreciate your letters of support.”
“We want to help you out in your transition to low GWP solutions.”
- Ricardo Lara, California State Senator
POLICY TRENDS

“As part of our commitment to
the environment, we had to do
something about short-lived
climate pollutants. HFCs are the
fastest growing source of
greenhouse gas emissions in
California.”
“Early next fall we’ll continue our
rule-making to make sure we
comply with the targets Senator
Lara has set.”
- Bart Croes, California Air
Resources Board
POLICY TRENDS

Climate Pollutants. Bart Croes, Chief - Research Division

“The current standard for commercial refrigeration
is a problem since we have clear limitations with
cooling capacity with a 150gr charge limit for A3
refrigerants [hydrocarbons].”
“After 4 years of work of the working group
revising the standard [IEC 603335–2–89], we’ll
know this fall if the review to raise the limit to
500gr for A3 refrigerants goes through.”
“The review of this standard is key to implement
Kigali. So I ask all of you to express your support
via each national committee.”
- Marek Zgliczynski, Embraco (on behalf of the
International Electrotechnical Commission, IEC)
POLICY TRENDS

Standards Evolution. Marek Zgliczynski, IEC SC61C Chair

“It is our responsibility that
safety standards are revised
according to the best
knowledge we have to use
refrigerants safely. Make sure
you are talking to your
government to incentives a
transition to low GWP
available.”
- Avipsa Mahapatra, EIA

Challenges for Private Sector. Avipsa Mahapatra, Climate Campaign Lead, EIA

MARKET TRENDS
02

“Ammonia charge should be reduced, and
the industry has made a very strong start.”
“Ammonia is an excellent refrigerant for
chillers, and the industry should focus more
on HVAC.”
“The market for HVAC is huge, compared to
industrial refrigeration, and growing at 5–
10% per year.”
“In 2017 there was a $400 million market
for air cooled chillers in the US.”
- Pega Hrnjak, CTS & University of Illinois at
Urbana-Champaign

“There’s a lot of interest for low charge ammonia, we
almost can’t handle the requests — it’s really exciting the
market interest.”
- Scott Martin, Hillphoenix
MARKET TRENDS

Development and Industry Relations, Hillphoenix

“We have 6 large CO2
TC systems in the US
already, some of them
already existing, some in
progress. One of our
biggest sector for us is
data centers.”
- Marc-André
Lesmerises, Carnot
Refrigeration
MARKET TRENDS

André Lesmerises, Carnot Refrigeration

“The digital shoppers are
changing the market.
Convenience is all about
making it fast and making
it easy. End users also
expect us to invest, as it’s
also a lot of investment
on their side. We need to
invest in better systems.”
- André Patenaude,
Emerson

“You can see that R290
are still best in
performance, compared
to the other A2L
refrigerants… [Charge
limits] With most
applications on smaller
formats we’re covered,
but larger applications
are a bit tougher.”
- John Prall, Embraco
MARKET TRENDS

“If you guys are looking for a silver
bullet out there, keep looking.”

“We obtain better
results in the actual
operation of the R290
waterloop units than
expected compared to
R404A air-cooled units.
Instead of an expected
COP improvement of
up to 20%, the actual
result showed a 35%
improvement.”
- Douglas Schmidt,
Rivacold

“We reduced energy consumption by 55%. Sound power was
reduced by 14dB, totalling now 45dB, which makes it comparable
with technology not using a compressor.”
- John Prall, Embraco
TECHNOLOGY TRENDS

refrigerators. John Prall, Embraco North America, Chengzhi Tang, Helmer Scientific

“If we added parallel
compression or adiabatic
we could have matched
or surpassed the efficiency
of the R290 units. We
kept it basic to have a
valid benchmark.”
- André Patenaude,
Emerson

“Modulating ejectors allow CO2 to be a
viable solution for small and medium sized
formats, including the small condensing
unit format.”
“We can take all this experience now and
get a head-start to develop further. We’re
not using the US as a testing ground to
introduce new technology.”
- Brandon Marshall, CAREL

“Our compressors are US SNAP approved,
which makes it suitable as a global solution. We
have a million units running with R290 in
Europe, offering up to 30% energy savings.”

“We have been focussing on ammonia
charge reduction for almost 10 years.”
“We want a refrigeration system that can
be scaled for the future expansion of our
business.”
“We had never installed a CO2 system
before, but we hadn’t done a lot of things
before the first time we tried them.”
