Best practice • Collaborative join venture in the development of National Guidelines for Refrigeration and Airconditioning Sector & The National Cooling Strategy
The National Guidelines for Good Refrigeration Practices has been developed by the National ozone Unit (NOU) Environmental Policy and Planning Division, Ministry of Planning and Development, and supports the regulatory framework for the total phase out of Ozone Depleting Substances (ODS) in Trinidad and Tobago by recommending technological options and best practices to reduce the demand for ODSs. These National guidelines are designed to: 1. Define minimum standards of good practices for servicing refrigeration and air conditioning systems, 2. act as a resource document in technicians training and the development of training materials, 3. help to initiate communication between relevant stakeholders, including service companies from the informal sector, 4. Reduce ODS consumption in a cost effective manner, 5. help ensure a smooth transition from ODS to non-ODS refrigeration technology by allowing existing refrigeration systems to run until the end of their useful life, thereby avoiding premature replacement, and 6. Improve safety quality. It is intended that the Guidelines be used as a reference resource for the reduction of refrigerant hydrochlorofluorocarbons (HCFC) and hydrofluorocarbons (HFC) emissions into the atmosphere. It applies to the industrial/commercial, residential domestic appliances, marine refrigeration and air conditioning, mobile refrigeration and mobile air conditioning sectors. National Cooling Strategy The drafting of the NCSTT was guided using a multisectoral consultative approach which spanned a period of over eighteen (18) months. Several key stakeholders involved in the cooling industry, and well as other sectors, in particular as it relates to energy efficiency and alternative refrigerants were consulted across Trinidad and Tobago. These stakeholders included, all Government Ministries, the Environmental Management Authority; the Trinidad and Tobago Bureau of Standards; the National Training Agency; training institutions in the RAC Sector such as the Metal Industries Limited, the National Energy Skills Centre, and the School of Refrigeration and Air Conditioning; research entities such as the University of the West Indies; and Non-Governmental Organizations such as the Air Conditioning and Refrigeration Industry Association and the Refrigerant Recovery and Recycling Association. The NCSTT was circulated to all professionally certified RAC technicians. Comments received were used to finalize the document, under the guidance of the Cabinet Appointed National Coordinating Committee to Guide the Implementation of the Montreal Protocol. The development of the NCSTT was facilitated through funding provided by the Kigali Cooling Efficiency Programme administered through the United Nations Development Programme. …

Best practice Blue Seal Air Curtains
Brightec’s BlueSeal air curtains are perfected for temperature controlled road transport, developed to maintain the temperature inside the vehicle. During loading and unloading BlueSeal is activated automatically. Outside air is sucked in by BlueSeal and converted into a vertical air curtain that separates the temperature inside the trailer from the ambient temperature outside the vehicle. The use of a BlueSeal air curtain has been proven to reduce infiltration loads by approximately 30-45%, resulting in a significant reduction in overall thermal load, which in turn reduces the carbon footprint and fuel costs of transport refrigeration systems (independent research project by the Centre for Sustainable Energy Use in Food Chains of Brunel University). BlueSeal effectively maintains temperature zones and ensures product integrity. Besides, it is driver-friendly, easy to install and provides an effective and silent air barrier. …
Best practice Case Study: Storing Food and Medicine in Rural Areas in the Northeast of Morocco
In Morocco, the rural population still remains important today. A significant proportion of households lives in isolated villages, making rural electrification by connection to the national grid technically more complex and financially more expensive. This is the case for the isolated villages in the northeast of Morocco. It is therefore necessary to consider alternative solutions that would lead to the sustainability of rural electrification. Gepco Solar has installed more than 3000 off-grid solar home systems for isolated homes in rural areas of Morocco. The project improves the lives of more than 15,000 people with no access to electricity. For food preservation, Gepco has developed two refrigerators. Secop supplied its well-proven BD compressors which are equipped with an electronic unit with built-in protection against shortages, operation outside temperature limits and destructive battery discharge.

Best practice Collaborative establishment of the Refrigeration and Air-conditioning Professional Certification Program
Subsequent to a request from the Air Conditioning and Refrigeration Industry Association (ARIA) for the certification of technicians in order to have better regulation of the Refrigeration and Air Conditioning Sector, the National Ozone Unit (NOU) approached the National Training Agency (NTA) on possible collaboration in establishing such a system based on the National Guidelines Document developed by the NOU. The NTA indicated that it would include this Professional Certification in its work programme, and a team was established between NTA, the NOU and key stakeholders in the sector, including the School of Refrigeration and Air Conditioning (SORAC), Metal Industries Company Limited (MIC), National Energy Skills Center (NESC), and the Youth Training and Employment Partnership Programme (YTEPP), to develop this Professional Certification. Consultations were held in Trinidad and Tobago and the proposal revised accordingly. The System was been finalized based on input from all stakeholders and is now being administered by MIC. The Certification System is also a component of this country's Hydrochlorofluorocarbon (HCFC) Phase out Management Plan, implementation of which is conducted by the National Ozone Unit and facilitated by the United Nations Development Programme …
Best practice Commercial refrigeration system using CO2 refrigerant with Full Transcritical Efficiency (FTE) and Extreme Temperature Efficiency (ETE) technology
The system based on FTE and ETE technology uses CO2 as a refrigerant fluid and provides a substantial energy saving (at least 10%) compared to traditional CO2 technology at all temperatures (also >>40°C). The carbon footprint of the system is reduced over the entire value chain based on a Life-Cycle climateå performance (LCCP) approach. …
