Meilleures pratiquesSuccess story: The Fridge Factory conversion project
With the support of GIZ Proklima, in 2008 the Fridge Factory was the first refrigeration manufacturer in the sub-Saharan region to convert its production line to natural refrigerant-based technologies. During the 3-year project, the Fridge Factory converted its entire domestic and commercial production line to operate with hydrocarbon refrigerants, with an annual production of approx. 60,000 appliances. Every sold unit replaces the use of fluorinated refrigerants, hereby avoiding an equivalent of 250 kg of CO2 of direct emissions during the lifetime of a unit. Moreover, the new appliances save more than 20% energy consumption compared to conventional units, hereby reducing electricity costs. The conversion to modern technologies strengthens the Fridge Factory’s market position against environmentally-damaging imports. Moreover, qualifying the engineering and technical staff to work with the new technology helps secure and maintain around 500 jobs. …
Meilleures pratiquesSuccess story: Solar-powered cooling in the German Jordanian University
Amman, October 2016: After 4 years of careful planning and developing, GIZ and the Jordanian Ministry of Environment (MoEnv) have successfully completed the solar cooling project at the German Jordanian University. The university in Amman now relies on a solar-powered cooling system that operates with a high reliability and environmental effectiveness, reducing electricity consumption for cooling by 15%. The project demonstrates the feasibility of environmentally-friendly technologies in Jordan, hereby promoting the reduction of CO2 emissions in line with the new Renewable Energy & Energy Efficiency Law, the phasing out of hydrochlorofluorocarbons (HCFCs), and Jordan’s scoping study on Green Economy. With several stakeholders from Germany and Jordan, the project promotes the cooperation between its different partners such as technology providers, German and Jordanian research institutions and Jordanian chiller manufacturers. …
Meilleures pratiquesPolicymaking: The Natural Voice- A global call to reduce greenhouse gases by natural refrigerants
Introduced by Shecco in 2009, the Natural Voice is a global statement open to industry, associations, non-profit organizations and individuals supporting the potential of natural refrigerants in replacing potent greenhouse gases. At present, the Natural Voice has 109 signatories from a range of sectors and industries. The statement will be presented to national governments and international climate negotiators in the near future to build the basis for developing natural refrigerant initiatives around the world. The Natural Voice demands national governments to remove (inter)national trade barriers and to revise safety standards, codes and legislation that restrict the use of natural refrigerants without merit. Furthermore, it calls upon national governments to provide (non-) financial support for the research and promotion of natural refrigerants, and to facilitate the technology transfer from developed to developing countries. …
Meilleures pratiquesTraining and Education
Promoting the use of hydrocarbons through training and education. The SIT leads an on-going project that offers rebates for households replacing their old CFC-12 and R134a refrigerators, with new, more energy efficient hydrocarbon refrigerators. The regular training of technicians from industry and private owned businesses is also part of the SIT's responsibility. The emphasis during the trainings is on good practices in refrigeration and air conditioning, including the safe use and application of natural refrigerants, as well as proper refrigerant recovery and retrofitting. …

Meilleures pratiquesSABROE SABlight air-cooled chiller
Johnson Control’s SABROE SABlight air-cooled chiller uses propane as a refrigerant, providing an environmentally friendly and economic alternative to air-cooled chillers using synthetic refrigerants. Six standard models for use in the low capacity market exist. When comparing efficiencies, the SABlight exceeds hydrofluorocarbon chillers. The frequency-controlled standard compressor ensures a very high coefficient of performance (COP). Moreover, the wide control range makes it a highly flexible chiller that will operate efficiently even at low loads. The SABROE SABlight air-cooled chiller is tailored for outdoor installation with a very low-noise operation. The particularly compact design uses V-coil condensers to significantly reduce the total carbon footprint. With a height of only 2.9 m and a width of only 1.3 m, SABlight units are extremely manageable. …

ICOOL Ningbo is a manufacturer and global supplier of refrigerants and HVAC-R materials. ICOOL has in recent years focused more and more on the manufacturing and supply of natural refrigerants for the application in RAC systems. Their approach is to inform the market and their customers about hydrocarbon and other natural refrigerants and their high energy efficiency potential. ICOOL believes and clearly communicates to their customers that natural refrigerants are safe and easy enough to handle, after a few additional safety instructions. These are provided through professional channels and organisations and teach safe handling for all involved in handling the refrigerant, before- during- and after installation. …
Meilleures pratiquesProduct: China’s first exporter of natural refrigerants
ICOOL, within the Ninhua Group, is the first local company to export natural refrigerants in entire China. In 2012, almost 30000 tons of refrigerants were exported. ICOOL specializes on a range of natural refrigerants including propane (R290), isobutane (R600a) and carbon-dioxide (R744). These are non-ozone depleting, non-corrosive, non-toxic and non-global warming potential alternatives to synthetic refrigerants. Natural refrigerants can be used for a range of applications in both commerical and industrial markets. ICOOL instructs their customers on the correct use and application of natural refrigerants, particularly hydrocarbons. They deliver the clear message that hydrocarbon refrigerants are already in use in many places and that the application of them is not as dangerous as generally believed. …
MembreInvenSor GmbH
InvenSor GmbH develops and produces adsorption chillers driven by heat at its site in Berlin. The chillers cool using waste heat, e.g. from CHP units, solar installations and industrial production processes. The refrigerant is the most eco-friendly in the world: pure water. InvenSor chillers save up to 70% in electrical power consumption compared to conventional systems and, thereby, help reduce operating costs significantly. No matter which type of waste heat is used to power them, the machines always operate with utmost efficiency and ease of use. Cooling is no longer a concern. There are no actively moved components inside the cooling chamber. As there is no need to open it for inspection or maintainance purposes it is welded tightly. Thanks to the InvenSor ActiVac® technology, the cooling chamber is maintainance-free. Make use of the waste heat generated by your combined heat and power station or solar plant. Put your plant’s process waste heat to good use. Regardless of where you produce your excess heat, InvenSor chillers can convert this heat into usable cooling. …
