2023 Refrigerant Rulemaking and Safety Standards Update

Date: Tuesday, April 18
Time: 2 p.m. EDT/11 a.m. PDT

The global hydrofluorocarbon (HFC) refrigerant phasedown is progressing rapidly in U.S. commercial refrigeration and air conditioning sectors. Federal regulations, state building codes and safety standards are evolving to support the emergence of lower-global warming potential (GWP) alternatives. If you are like many stakeholders, you have many questions about the path forward, compliance timing and refrigerant safety.

So far in 2023, we’ve seen significant shifts in the regulatory landscape — including the Technology Transitions proposal from the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) — with more activity expected throughout the year. In our next E360 Webinar, 2023 Refrigerant Rulemaking and Safety Standards Update, our regulatory experts will present an overview of new developments and provide answers for those evaluating their next-generation equipment strategies.

Attendees will learn:

  • Details, timing and proposed GWP limits in the EPA Technology Transitions proposal
  • Expectations for EPA SNAP approval of new refrigerant alternatives and EPA HFC management rulemaking
  • Overview of safety standards governing flammable refrigerants
  • Progress of building and model codes needed enable flammable refrigerants at the state level
  • Resources for preparing for the next generation of alternative refrigerants
