U.S. Split Market to Take up Carbon Neutral Challenge

With a view to the realization of carbon neutrality in 2050, specific efforts are underway in various countries around the world.

The air conditioning industry is accelerating the shift to low global warming potential (GWP) refrigerants.
In the United States, due to stricter local safety standards and building codes, it seems that the shift to next-generation refrigerants is lagging behind that underway in other parts of the world. However, as CO2 emissions reduction targets become stricter worldwide, steps towards a shift to low-GWP refrigerants have emerged in the United States recently.
