Engagement

Change requires systems-wide engagement to address many stakeholders, businesses, technologies, economics, and policies. Corporate, market, and policy levers are all key entry points to address the complexity of moving toward zero refrigerant emissions. Safety testing, revision of multiple codes and standards, and state and local adoption are essential to provide manufacturers with a clear pathway for technology development and building owners with a strategy to manage their financial risk associated with HVAC and refrigerants.

REEF elevates corporate commitment and policy support of sound refrigerant management strategies through engagement that ensures refrigerants are recognized as a critical climate issue. We work across the refrigerant landscape by aligning and supporting organizations and advocates – covering policy, manufacturing, reclaim, destruction, management, emerging technologies, and more – working in partnership for systems change.
