This side event will show the significance of the cooling sector for mitigation and adaptation and present the available Green Cooling technologies.
The refrigeration and air conditioning sector is responsible for up to 10% of all global emissions. This is due to its huge energy consumption and the high global warming potential of many common refrigerants. At the same time the demand for cooling is rising steadily. The good news: the emissions can be reduced significantly by using Green Cooling technologies. Green Cooling is based on natural refrigerants and energy efficiency.
This side event will show the significance of the cooling sector for mitigation and adaptation and present the available Green Cooling technologies.
