11/2025 Publication - Event DocumentationGreen Cooling Webinar #5: Green Heating and Cooling
Natural refrigerants have powered cooling and heating systems for decades — from food and beverage production, cold storage, and pharmaceuticals to industrial processing, commercial HVAC, and beyond. Their performance in Europe and elsewhere proves they can deliver high energy efficiency with zero ozone-depleting potential and no global warming potential (GWP). As global energy systems decarbonize, natural refrigerants such as ammonia, CO₂, and hydrocarbons are emerging as the future-proof backbone of sustainable heating and cooling.
