F-Gas regulation

Regulation (EU) No. 517/2014, also known as the F-gas regulation, deals with fluorinated greenhouse gas substances. The main objective of this regulation is to control and reduce emissions of these gases, which contribute to the greenhouse effect and climate change. These gases, including fluorinated greenhouse gases, are known for their high capacity to absorb infrared radiation, which leads to an increase in the temperature of the atmosphere and affects climate change.

F-gas regulation includes various aspects:

The regulation sets a limit on the amount of F-gases that can be put on the market. It limits the production and availability of these substances, with the aim of reducing emissions.

The regulation sets strict standards for areas where fluorinated greenhouse gases can be used, such as refrigeration, air conditioning and insulation. It also introduces training and certification requirements for personnel handling these systems.

The regulation imposes an obligation to monitor F-gas emissions and report the results to national authorities and the European Commission. This allows for strict control of emissions and the application of countermeasures if limits are exceeded.

The regulation prohibits the use of certain fluorinated greenhouse gases in specific applications, such as new low-emission refrigeration equipment.

One of the aims of the regulation is also to promote alternative technologies and substances that have less impact on the environment and climate change.

The introduction of F-gas regulation is essential for the future of the planet, as it reduces greenhouse gas emissions, which can help curb climate change and protect the environment. The long-term goal is to reduce their impact on the environment and climate, which is important in the context of global warming and climate change.

Types of quotas

A quota for importing gas in bulk

Given once a year by the European Commission to both incumbent and new entrants 

This quota can be used to import bulk gas, transferred to another company to import gas, or authorize a company to imprort HFC pre-charged equipment.

Authorizations

They can be used to import HFC pre-charged equipment or delegated to another company also to import HFC pre-charged equipment. 

Delegations

They can be used to import HFC pre-charged equipment.


They cannot be transferred. Must be used by the beneficiary.

FAQ

GWP stands for "Global Warming Potential." It is a measure used to assess and compare the potential impact of various greenhouse gases on global warming over a specific time frame, typically 100 years. GWP is expressed as a numerical value relative to carbon dioxide (CO2), which has a GWP of 1 by definition.

A ton of CO2 equivalent (tCO2e) is a measure used to assess the global warming impact of fluorinated gases (f-gases) compared to carbon dioxide (CO2) emissions. F-gases, such as fluorinated hydrocarbons (e.g., Freons), have a much higher greenhouse potential than CO2, meaning they can cause a stronger greenhouse effect per unit mass of gas emitted.The ton of CO2 equivalent is used as a unit of measurement that aggregates different greenhouse gases into a common measure, as if they were CO2 emissions. This allows for easier comparison of the global warming impact of different f-gases, since the conversion of their emissions to CO2 equivalent reflects their respective greenhouse potential.

According to Article 15, paragraph 2, if the amount of CO2 equivalent does not exceed 100 tons, you do not need a quota to import.

One of the most popular refrigerants used in air conditioning, refrigeration and heat pump systems is R-410A. It is a fluorocarbon, which is a mixture of two components - pentafluoroethane (HFC-125) and difluoromethane (HFC-32). R-410A is widely used as a replacement for older refrigerants with high ozone depletion potential (ODP) and greenhouse gas potential (GWP), such as R-22.

Another popular refrigerant that is gaining popularity as an alternative to R-410A is R-32, or difluoromethane (HFC-32). R-32 is a single-component refrigerant, meaning it consists of only one chemical, making it more environmentally friendly than multi-component mixtures such as R-410A.

According to the EU Parliament and Council Regulation No. 517/2014, you need to have a quota to import gas or equipment pre-charged with R290. However, it is worth remembering that R290 has a very low GWP=3 and if the amount of 100 t eq. CO2 quota is not required (see question 3).
