EU F-gas Regulation handbook 2024
The use of climate-damaging hydrofluorocarbons (HFCs) and other fluorinated gases (F-gases) in the EU is coming to an end, with the world’s first total HFC phase-out scheduled for 2050.
The revised EU F-gas Regulation will support decarbonisation goals and drive innovation and green investment across a wide range of sectors, including heat pumps, the cold chain, healthcare and more.
The EEB, together with the Environmental Investigation Agency (EIA), calls on manufacturers, technicians, end-users, enforcement authorities and policy-makers to prioritise measures which support the effective implementation of the EU F-gas Regulation. We list all the needed steps in this handbook.
