Welcome & Congratulations 2008 MAC Summit

1. Welcome & Congratulations 2008 MAC Summit Stephen O. Andersen Mobile Air Conditioning Climate Protection Partnership

2. Full Community Agreement • 50% and more avoidable refrigerant emissions in system manufacture, operation, service and disposal • 30% and more achievable energy efficiency • Choice of environmentally superior refrigerants with GWP=1, 4, or 140 • compared to HFC-134a at GWP=1400+ • Car buyers would SAVE MONEY with new technology and professional service!

3. Good MAC News • Extraordinary engineering cooperation! • Unprecedented SAE leadership & innovation! • Clear EC refrigerant regulation! • Comprehensive CARB MAC regulation! • Blockbuster Minnesota emissions disclosure! • Choice of CO2, HFC-152a, and HFC-1234yf! • LCCP globally endorsed for refrigerant choice! • Refrigerant barriers nearly removed in USA! • Mobile AC Society upgrading training!

4. Best Case Scenarios • MAC community chooses one global refrigerant and cooperates on world-wide introduction as fast as the transition from CFC-12 to HFC-134a • Regulators worldwide harmonize stringent regulations to prevent cross-contamination, unnecessary emissions and to require energy efficiency • Transitional HFC-134a systems reduce refrigerant emissions as scored by SAE-2727, are serviced professionally with SAE-2788 equipment, and with refrigerant recovery at End-of-Life

5. Best Case Global Refrigerant • One refrigerant worldwide • Competitively produced and priced • Absent trade barriers and excessive profits • Achieving highest energy efficiency • Supported with standards and regulations • Serviced professionally and without emissions • In all new cars globally by 2015 • Protecting the climate • Saving money in fuel and repair

6. Why Resist Secondary Loop? • Mitigates toxicity, flammability, refrigerant cost • Helps keep flammable oil from engine ignition • Empowers idle stop, regenerative cooling, and fuel-miser compressor operation • Allows choice, during the global transition, of HFC-134a, HFC-1234yf, or HFC-152a with similar components and oils and keeps open the option of new green chemistry for next-generation electric, plug-in hybrid, fuel cell, and other environmentally superior vehicles

8. Summit Headlines • EPA: “LCCP, cooperation, quickly, worldwide” • CEQ: “Voluntary leadership rewarded” • EC: “No way out of f-gas regulation” • CA: “You aint seen nothing yet” • MN: “As Minnesota goes so goes the world” • NGOs: “Clean, green, driving machine” • SAE: “Get on board, or get out of the way” • MACS:“No gas & go; no small cans, no worries” • OEMs:“Reliable, affordable, global refrigerant”

9. Summit Consensus • The Mobile Air Conditioning Climate Protection Partnership will organize a meeting-of-the-minds in fall 2008 • To confirm the choice of one energy-efficient global refrigerant • To plan removal of the final barriers • To pursue the essential global standards • To build the training and service infrastructure, and • To communicate the benefits to policy makers and the public
