Who knows what the Federal “AIM” Act has to do with the future of refrigerants? • California is setting the standard for Climate Change oriented regulations • Other states are following as part of the U.S. Climate Alliance • Get plugged into the regulations, they will affect all of us, everyone will need help working through the transition, better to lead, not follow • Regulations are difficult to understand, there are many, some key connections within local, State and Federal agencies may be required to navigate this properly • Cali is mandated to lower emissions utilizing many techniques by 2040, it is the law, refrigerants are one of the main targets • New Regs require that any systems over 50# charge use refrigerants under 150 GWP (R448A = 1293, CO2 = 1) • Retail already has had to comply with this, cold storage is 1-1-22 .
