Abstract
These “Model Regulation Guidelines (Guidelines) for Energy-Efficient and Climate-Friendly Commercial Refrigeration Equipment” complement United for Efficiency’s (U4E’s) “Model Regulation Guidelines for Refrigerating Appliances” and other supporting resources. This is voluntary guidance for developing and emerging economy governments that are considering a regulatory or legislative framework requiring new refrigeration equipment to be energy efficient and use refrigerants that have lower global warming potential (GWP) compared with typical legacy refrigerants. It covers types of refrigeration equipment commonly used in commercial applications. An accompanying supporting information document includes the underlying rationale and methods.
