Removing barriers to the use of flammable refrigerants
IEA HPT Annex 64
New chemical bans and the revision of the so-called F-Gas Regulation present new challenges for the heat pump and refrigeration industry. This project aims to generate new knowledge regarding the safe future use of flammable refrigerants in heat pump and refrigeration systems up to 50 kW for space heating and domestic hot water production, and to make this knowledge available to the relevant target groups.
The overarching goal of the IEA HPT Annex 64 project is to contribute to the widespread and safe use of flammable refrigerants in heat pump and refrigeration systems up to 50 kW for space heating and domestic hot water production in Austria. Specifically, the project aims to remove existing barriers to the use of flammable refrigerants by developing new knowledge regarding the associated risks as well as technical solutions for safe use, and disseminating this information to relevant target groups.
