Interlinked ODS Phase-out Activities Handbook: Improved Effectiveness of ODS Phase-out Activities in the Refrigeration Servicing Sector

The Interlinked ODS Phase-out Activities Handbook provides guidance for government officers to reduce the demand for ozone-depleting refrigerants in the servicing sector through coordinated stakeholder activities.

• The handbook aims to assist government officers in enhancing the effectiveness of national plans to reduce the remaining demand for ozone-depleting refrigerants within the refrigeration servicing sector, emphasizing that interlinked activities and stakeholder cooperation are required to lower emissions.
• Modifying practices in the refrigeration servicing sector provides benefits beyond the phase-out of ozone-depleting substances, including reduced energy consumption and an increased lifespan for expensive equipment, which benefits equipment owners, servicing companies, and the community.
• While focused on the Montreal Protocol on Substances that deplete the Ozone Layer, the handbook's approach to market-driven transitions and coordinated activities may be applicable to officers working with other multilateral environmental agreements, such as those managing fluorinated gases under the Kyoto Protocol.
