U.S. NCCTI Report October 12, 2001
In the Executive Summary of
Technologies to Reduce Emissions of Non-CO2 Greenhouse Gases and Black Carbon National Climate Change Technology Initiative the following graph covers the emissions of HFC-134a
22

U.S. NCCTI Report October 12, 2001
EPA Inventory of U.S. Greenhouse Gas Emissions and Sinks 1999 and 2000 indicated emission levels for HFC-134a in 1992.
HFC-134a systems first production MY1992 and full production MY1995
Refrigerant R&R was mandatory
New HFC-134a systems required minimal refrigerant for service in 1993 –1998
In 1998, an unexplained HFC-134a emissions, accountable to MAC service industry, of an additional 14,000 equivalent metric tonnes of carbon dioxide or 31 million pounds of HFC-134a
HFC-134a was used to service the CFC-12 fleet

Future Challenges
Contamination potential for MAC systems and service equipment
Only recovery-recycle equipment will be available for HFC-134a and HFO-1234yf refrigerants
No certified R&R equipment designs exist for the other listed SNAP refrigerants
No information on MAC system cooling performance or material compatibility for other SNAP listed refrigerants if used in HFC-134a or HFO-1234yf system

Lessons Learned
The Future
The MAC change from CFC-12 to HFC-134a was expensive for the consumer and industry
The laissez-faire use and atmospheric loading of HFC-134a has resulted in the current World action to eliminated its future use
Normal MAC HFC-134a direct refrigerant emissions is less than 5% over the MAC system lifetime
Vehicle tail pipe emissions for MAC energy use
[cooling] results in greater lifetime emissions
