Nous sommes une association representant tous les acteurs du froid et de la climatisation en Algerie, afin de promouvoir le froid et le développement durable dans le pays. Nous sommes favorables pour la technologie alternative utilisant les fluides frigorigenes naturels tels que le CO2, le NH3 et le R290 dans les installations frigorifiques dans le domaine du froid et de la climatisation. …
10/2022 Publication - Technical PublicationCan refrigerants with a GWP below 150 be used for Heat Pumps in Europe?
In the forthcoming report, the viability of applying alternative refrigerants with a GWP < 150 to domestic heat pumps (DHPs) with nominal heating capacities up to 50 kW will be considered. The assessment will reflect the proposed revision to the European F-gas regulation. DHPs currently use a variety of refrigerants, primarily R410A, but also R32, R407C, R404A, R417A, R454B, R454C, R452B, R448A, R449A, amongst others, all of which are medium or high GWP. A number of models already use R290, whilst other alternative refrigerants with GWP < 150 under consideration are R1270, R1234yf and R152a; all of which are flammable. These low GWP alternatives will be assessed, relative to R410A as baseline and R32 as leading medium GWP refrigerant.

MembreTogo - Direction de l’Environnement
Ministry of Environment The mission of the Ministry of Environment and Forest Resources (MERF) is to: enforce the state’s policies on the management of environmental and forest resources; elaborate rules on the protection of the environment, prevent pollution, natural hazards and disasters; monitor the implementation and compliance with international environmental conventions, as well as the provisions of the framework law on the environment, the forest code and the law on preventing risks from biotechnology; monitor the integration of environmental concerns into the various sectoral policies and national development strategies; develop means of support and supervision of populations and other stakeholders in the context of reforestation and forest management; inform transboundary police on the movements of chemical and dangerous substances. Bureau national ozone/National Ozone Unit The main objective of the project is to develop expertise and increase the technical capacity of national institutions to reduce and/or phase out the consumption of controlled substances, including ozone-depleting substances and greenhouse gases targeted by the Montreal Protocol on Substances that Deplete the Ozone Layer. Concretely, the National Office will work for the elimination of HCFCs within the framework of the implementation of the Hydrochlorofluorocarbons Phase out Management Plan /Plans de Gestion et d’Elimination des Hydrochlorofluorocarbones/ (HPMP/PGEH) put in place by Togo; Honor the country's obligations in order to meet the deadline for the total elimination of HCFCs by 2030; Take the necessary measures for the implementation of the Kigali Amendment (KIP) etc. (Contact: Vidémé Amèh DJOSSOU, Coordinator) …

11/08/2022 Actualité Kenya launches the Green Cooling Initiative III
On May 11 the Kick Off workshop of the GCI III was held in Kenya. This session served to discuss with stakeholders the objectives of the new phase of the project, which aims to put Kenya at the forefront of green cooling technologies in East and Central Africa.
Meilleures pratiques• Collaborative join venture in the development of National Guidelines for Refrigeration and Airconditioning Sector & The National Cooling Strategy
The National Guidelines for Good Refrigeration Practices has been developed by the National ozone Unit (NOU) Environmental Policy and Planning Division, Ministry of Planning and Development, and supports the regulatory framework for the total phase out of Ozone Depleting Substances (ODS) in Trinidad and Tobago by recommending technological options and best practices to reduce the demand for ODSs. These National guidelines are designed to: 1. Define minimum standards of good practices for servicing refrigeration and air conditioning systems, 2. act as a resource document in technicians training and the development of training materials, 3. help to initiate communication between relevant stakeholders, including service companies from the informal sector, 4. Reduce ODS consumption in a cost effective manner, 5. help ensure a smooth transition from ODS to non-ODS refrigeration technology by allowing existing refrigeration systems to run until the end of their useful life, thereby avoiding premature replacement, and 6. Improve safety quality. It is intended that the Guidelines be used as a reference resource for the reduction of refrigerant hydrochlorofluorocarbons (HCFC) and hydrofluorocarbons (HFC) emissions into the atmosphere. It applies to the industrial/commercial, residential domestic appliances, marine refrigeration and air conditioning, mobile refrigeration and mobile air conditioning sectors. National Cooling Strategy The drafting of the NCSTT was guided using a multisectoral consultative approach which spanned a period of over eighteen (18) months. Several key stakeholders involved in the cooling industry, and well as other sectors, in particular as it relates to energy efficiency and alternative refrigerants were consulted across Trinidad and Tobago. These stakeholders included, all Government Ministries, the Environmental Management Authority; the Trinidad and Tobago Bureau of Standards; the National Training Agency; training institutions in the RAC Sector such as the Metal Industries Limited, the National Energy Skills Centre, and the School of Refrigeration and Air Conditioning; research entities such as the University of the West Indies; and Non-Governmental Organizations such as the Air Conditioning and Refrigeration Industry Association and the Refrigerant Recovery and Recycling Association. The NCSTT was circulated to all professionally certified RAC technicians. Comments received were used to finalize the document, under the guidance of the Cabinet Appointed National Coordinating Committee to Guide the Implementation of the Montreal Protocol. The development of the NCSTT was facilitated through funding provided by the Kigali Cooling Efficiency Programme administered through the United Nations Development Programme. …
Meilleures pratiquesCollaborative establishment of the Refrigeration and Air-conditioning Professional Certification Program
Subsequent to a request from the Air Conditioning and Refrigeration Industry Association (ARIA) for the certification of technicians in order to have better regulation of the Refrigeration and Air Conditioning Sector, the National Ozone Unit (NOU) approached the National Training Agency (NTA) on possible collaboration in establishing such a system based on the National Guidelines Document developed by the NOU. The NTA indicated that it would include this Professional Certification in its work programme, and a team was established between NTA, the NOU and key stakeholders in the sector, including the School of Refrigeration and Air Conditioning (SORAC), Metal Industries Company Limited (MIC), National Energy Skills Center (NESC), and the Youth Training and Employment Partnership Programme (YTEPP), to develop this Professional Certification. Consultations were held in Trinidad and Tobago and the proposal revised accordingly. The System was been finalized based on input from all stakeholders and is now being administered by MIC. The Certification System is also a component of this country's Hydrochlorofluorocarbon (HCFC) Phase out Management Plan, implementation of which is conducted by the National Ozone Unit and facilitated by the United Nations Development Programme …
