European Industry View on Awareness<br />
Levels, Products & Plans<br />
Close to 700 European industry experts have voiced their<br />
concern about low awareness levels among customers<br />
and the HVAC&R industry as a whole about CO 2<br />
, NH 3<br />
and HCs as refrigerants – a major stumbling block to<br />
their rapid market adoption. Which products & services<br />
involving HFC-free solutions are used today, and which<br />
natural refrigerants will dominate in future innovations?<br />
The answers on ….<br />
A SWOT Analysis for Natural<br />
Refrigerants in Europe<br />
Natural refrigerants have their strengths and weaknesses,<br />
as does every refrigerant option. But besides substantially<br />
reducing direct emissions from high potential global<br />
warming gases, they can also save costs and “futureproof”<br />
the industry from upcoming legislation, says<br />
the industry. See how the current European policy &<br />
business climate impacts on natural working fluids, and<br />
why training & know-how remains a hurdle, on…<br />
The Future of CO 2<br />
, NH 3<br />
and HCs – Market<br />
Forecasts 2012-2020<br />
Prospects for natural working fluids are heterogeneous,<br />
strongly depending on the HVAC&R sub-sector and<br />
its capacity to absorb technologies based on nonfluorinated<br />
gases. From promising figures for the<br />
commercial and industrial refrigeration sectors to a<br />
currently stagnating market for mobile air conditioning -<br />
see how Europe’s natural refrigerant industry has looked<br />
into the future, on…<br />
