  1. HCFC management and strategy in Hungary and Europe Róbert Tóth Ministry of Environment and Water Budapest, Hungary

  2. Article 5(1) Parties consumption: Base level: 2015 Freeze: January 1, 2016 100% reduction: January 1, 2040 Provisions in Montreal Protocol to phase-out HCFCs

  3. Non-Article 5(1) Parties consumption: Base level: 1989 HCFC cons. + 2.8% Hungary of 1989 CFC cons.2160 t/y Freeze: 19962160 t/y 35% reduction: January 1, 20041440 t/y 65% reduction: January 1, 2010720 t/y 90% reduction: January 1, 2015216 t/y 99.5% reduction: January 1, 202011t/y 100% reduction: January 1, 20300 t/y Provisions in Montreal Protocol to phase-out HCFCs

  4. Consumption of HCFCs in Hungary in t

  5. Foaming: HCFC-22/142b → CO2/water HCFC-141b → HFC, butane, cyclopentane R&AC: HCFC-22 → HFCs, Isobutane Fire protection: NAFSIII, Halotron I → inert gases, CO2, HFCs (227ea, 125, FS49C2: 3-4-9C2), Novec, powdered aerosols, water mist Shifting from HCFCs in Hungary

  6. EU Policy to Avoid Ozone Depletion HCFC controls in Regulation (EC) No 2037/2000

  7. 2000 to 2007: Production equal or less than 1997 production in the EC 2008 to 2014: ... 35% of 1997 production 2015 to 2020 : … 20% of 1997 production 2016 to 2025 : … 15% of 1997 production No HCFC production after end 2025 HCFC Production Controls

  8. 2001 Cap at 2% of CFCs placed on market in 1989 + 1989 placing on the market of HCFCs (6678 ODP-tonnes) 2002 85% of 2000 level (5676 ODP-tonnes) 2003 45% of 2000 level (3005 ODP-tonnes) 2004 to 2007 30% of 2000 level (2003<2209<2250 ODP-tonnes) 2008 to 2009 25% of 2000 level (1669<1840<1874 ODP-tonnes) 2010 onwards – No placing on the market Consumption Controls on HCFCs (ODP tonnes)

  9. HCFC Phase-out dates -Refrigeration/AC/Heat Pumps • Refrigeration, AC and Heat pumps in general – HCFCs can be used until 1 Jan 2001 • Fixed AC < 100kW …. 1 July 2002 • Reversible AC/Heat Pumps …. 1 Jan 2004 • Existing systems – virgin HCFCs …. 1 Jan 2010 • Existing systems – all HCFCs … 1 Jan 2015 • Review of HCFCs in refrigeration … before end 2008

  10. 1 Oct 2000 – banned HCFCs for integral skin foams for use in safety applications and rigid insulation 1 Jan 2003 – banned HCFCs for polyurethane in appliances and polyurethane laminates and panels, except for transport 1 Jan 2004 – banned HCFCs for all foams, including polyurethane spray and block foams HCFC Phase-out dates - Foams

  11. Exports of products containing HCFC • Permitted after 1 January, 2004 under Article 5(5) • HCFCs come from within the quota – manufacturer can decide between refrigeration, mobile A/C, solvent, fire fighting and exportuse(if permitted in the country of import)

  12. HCFCs for fire fighting • HCFCs can be used to replace halons listed in Annex VII of Regulation (EC) No 2037/2000 • 70% of the costs of halon removal and destruction must be paid by the HCFC installer • Limited time period – 2010? • Report amounts annually to the Commission • So far only known in Italy and Spain • Not recommended as HCFCs are a short term replacement and they deplete ozone
