Although the fluorolobby is fighting back hard, there is sound evidence that CO2 can be used very efficiently in new systems compared with current HFC-134a systems. The toxic by products of thermal decomposition remain a significant obstacle to R1234yf, not to mention it's cost. Whatever the outcome of the debate about the next generation refrigerant for new systems, hydrocarbon refrigerants are well established in the Australia and the US (in spite of not having regulatory approval), Japan and many other countries, over many years, and without incident. Particularly in view of the performance and efficiency advantages of hydrocarbons, and the urgent need to embrace practical solutions to reduce HFC emissions, it is high time for the US to pursue the opportunity to use hydrocarbons much more widely in the automotive service market, and in new systems in other sectors. As part of joining the community of environmentally concerned nations, America needs to embrace the natural refrigerants transition that is still in an early stage. Providing recognition of the existing extent and future potential of hydrocarbon refrigerants would be a fine start.
