POLICY TRENDS

“By and large, equipment
manufacturers move quickly to
alternatives because the last
thing they want is to sell
technology that will be difficult
to service in future. We are using
a gradual phase-down for
HFCs because it is a tried-and-
tested method that worked well
with the HCFC phase-out. It is
an approach that works.”
- Patrick McInerney, Australian
Government Department of the
Environment

“I believe one of the largest challenges
at this time is creating market
demand. We are here because we
either believe, want to know more
about, or see the opportunity for natural
refrigerants.”
“Expanding the audience via education
knowledge sharing and technology is
an ongoing and important trend moving
forward.”

“What is important here is the massive
technology transition that will be triggered
by the HFC phase-down.”
“In the future, most of the refrigerants will be
flammable. We will need to create some
awareness.”
“We need to have much more awareness
across the board — end users, industry —
otherwise the industry can’t identify its own
need.”

A question from the audience: “How
do you manage to convince that all
these systems should be integrated
HVAC&R and heat recovery?”
Nielsen: “Its a challenge but it
amounts to educating the end
customer to realise that they can
save a lot of costs by combining all
the elements into one system.”

“By adding parallel compression with
an optional ejector, Heatcraft’s racks
are ‘warm climate-ready’.”
“Investment in training is a must.
Contractor application training is
critical, but training end-users on
selling the benefits of using the
technology is just as critical."
