(b) To submit to the Open-ended Working Group at its thirty-ninth meeting a report on safety standards relevant for low-GWP alternatives, including on the following: Progress in the revision of international safety standards by the IEC, the International Organization for Standardization (ISO) and other international standards bodies; Information concerning tests and/or risk assessments and their results relevant to safety standards; Assessment of the implications of international standards for the implementation of the decisions of the Meeting of the Parties to the Montreal Protocol on the accelerated phase-out of HCFCs and HFC control measures, and recommendations to the parties; It also requested the Ozone Secretariat to organize a workshop on safety standards relevant to the safe use of low-GWP alternatives back to back with the 39th meeting of the Open-ended Working Group, within existing resources (this workshop was held in Bangkok, preceding the OEWG-39 meeting). A report of the workshop is given in UNEP/OzL.Pro.WG.1/39/5 (meeting report of the OEWG-39, 27 July 2017). A TEAP Task Force was composed of 15 RTOC members (including the two RTOC co-chairs) and 9 outside experts, the beginning of 2017. This Task Force reported to the parties at OEWG- 39 via its XXVIII/4 Task Force report (TEAP, 2017). As one of the results, parties requested the Ozone Secretariat to provide them with a tabular overview of relevant standards which should be regularly updated; this tabular overview was first provided to OEWG-40 in 2018. Decision XXVIII/2 (para 22) taken in Kigali, mentioned: “To request the Executive Committee to develop cost guidance associated with maintaining and/or enhancing the energy efficiency of low-GWP or zero-GWP replacement technologies and equipment, when phasing down hydrofluorocarbons, while taking note of the role of other institutions addressing energy efficiency, when appropriate”. It is for that reason that, at MOP-29, parties took Decision XIX/10 (Issues related to energy efficiency while phasing down hydrofluorocarbons). They requested: The Technology and Economic Assessment Panel in relation to maintaining and/or enhancing energy efficiency in the refrigeration, air-conditioning and heat-pump sectors, including in high-ambient-temperature conditions, while phasing down hydrofluorocarbons under the Kigali Amendment to the Montreal Protocol in parties operating under paragraph 1 of Article 5, to assess the following items: Technology options and requirements including: Challenges to their uptake; Their long-term sustainable performance and viability; Their environmental benefits in terms of carbon dioxide equivalents; Capacity-building and servicing sector requirements in the RACHP sectors; Related costs including capital and operating costs; The Technology and Economic Assessment Panel to provide an overview of the activities and funding provided by other relevant institutions, as well as definitions, criteria and methodologies used in addressing energy efficiency in the refrigeration, air-conditioning and heat-pump sectors in relation to maintaining and/or enhancing energy efficiency in the refrigeration, air-conditioning and heat-pump sectors while phasing down hydrofluorocarbons under the Kigali Amendment to the Montreal Protocol, as well as those related to low-GWP and zero-GWP hydrofluorocarbon alternatives including on different financing modalities; The Technology and Economic Assessment Panel to prepare a final report for consideration by the Open-ended Working Group at its fortieth meeting, and thereafter an updated final report to be submitted to the Thirtieth Meeting of the Parties to the Montreal Protocol on 2018 TOC Refrigeration, A/C and Heat Pumps Assessment Report 27PDF Image | Heat Pumps Technical Options
