4. HFC Tax Postponed in France
French refrigeration and air conditioning federations met in June 2020 to discuss the tax on HFC refrigerants envisaged by the French government, initially scheduled to enter into force on January 1, 2021. The HVAC&R sector considered that the future tax had become unnecessary and should not be implemented. Moreover, the French Court of Auditors and the Inspectorate-General of Finance have recommended that taxes generating low revenues for the government should not be applied, and the draft HFC tax falls into this category. This factor, along with negative reactions from the HVAC&R industry, led to the postponement of the HFC tax prior to its application.
