HFC - 23 is a so - called super greenhouse gas which has a global warming potential some 14,800 times higher than CO2 and the Environmental Investigation Agency (EIA) is calling for new laws to destroy the gas which is produced as a by product from producing the refrigerant HCFC - 22.

In their current state, many standards severely restrict the use of hydrocarbons, which are among the most energy efficient low - global warming potential (GWP) refrigerants.

There was growing consensus in the lead up to the Kigali Amendment of the Montreal Protocol last year that updating industry standards to allow for uptake of low global warming potential (GWP) refrigerants is paramount to successfully phasing down HFCs and unlocking energy efficiency benefits.

Whilst the emission of greenhouse gases generally is the main contributor to global warming, synthetic refrigerants like HFCs have the highest Global Warming Potential warming, synthetic refrigerants like HFCs have the highest Global Warming Potential Warming Potential of all.
