  33. Technology Perspectives

  34. Technology Perspective • Air Conditioning – Auto ACs • Standardized on HFC-134a worldwide since 1994 • EU MAC directive – no Refrigerant > 150 GWP new models 1/1/11 • Existing model HFC-134a ban 1/1/17 • HFO 1234yf being promoted with limited commercial supply, but 3 world scale plants announced • Mercedes rejected – “too flammable” • Toyota rejected – “customer concerns” • Returned to HFC-134a • France banned new Mercedes models in July • Working on Transcritical Carbon Dioxide 041703-139

  35. Technology Perspective • Auto Air Conditioning - continued • Counter trend is increasing energy efficiency, fuel cells • Reduced waste energy • HFC-134a inefficient in heat pumps • US EPA granting mileage “credits” for using lower GWP a/c fluids

  36. Technology Perspective • Commercial Air Conditioning • Chillers historically HCFC-123 large proportion in North America • Less in ROW • The rest is HFC-134a • Now some movement toward HFO-1233ze, HFO-1233-zd • Other Commercial - < 50 Tons • US clear direction to R-410A scroll’s • HFC-32 in VFR systems

  37. Technology Perspective • Residential A/C & Heat Pumps • Europe/Japan – slow but gradual acceptance R-410A, moving from R-407C • North America 15-20% R-410A – but growing • Some European/Developing Countries – hydrocarbons in small charge systems • Middle East has major problem – high pressure with R-410A at 55o C ambient • Installed base mostly HCFC-22 • Companies beginning to promote HFO/HFC blends

  38. Technology Perspective • Domestic Refrigeration • Market is fragmenting • Appliance – Europe & International moving to HC’s (37% of Int’l total, 2010) • North America/Japan using HFCs 134a, 245fa, HCs in Mexico and Japan • EPA has approved GE Monogram line with HCs – not being marketed as yet • Developing Countries increasingly moving to HCs 4/11/03-137

  39. Technology Perspective • Commercial Refrigeration(vending, rack, ice machines) • North America/Japan using HFC-134a, R-404A (ice), R-507 (mostly HCFC-22 in use) • Europe –HFC-134a dominant, some HCs/ammonia indirect • mostly HCFC-22 in use • Government promoted CO2 cascade systems in supermarkets, including US • Multinational Corporations Coca Cola, et.al. slowing moving toward CO2 • Cartridge systems in vending machines 041703-138
