Agenda
1. Managing HFCs Emission
a) Industrial Voluntary Action Plans ( HFC, PFC, SF6 )
b) “Fluorocarbons Recovery & Destruction Law” ( HFC, CFC, HCFC )
( New law )
“Act on Rational Use & Proper Management of Fluorocarbons”
( HFC, CFC, HCFC )
③ Reducing “In use leakage” ( HFC, CFC, HCFC )
 Periodical check & Reporting total amount of emission
( by users of products for commercial use )
 Restriction of repetitious refilling without repairs
( by users & by refiller )
2. Promoting alternatives to lower GWP & Non-Fluorocarbons
( New law )
“Act on Rational Use & Proper Management of Fluorocarbons”
( HFC, CFC, HCFC )
① Promoting lower-GWP/non-fluorocarbons in designated products
( HFC ) ( by Manufactures )
② Conducting HFCs Phase-down ( HFC ) ( by Gas-producers )

( New Measure ①)
Measures to promote low-GWP/non-fluorocarbons
in designated products
Manufactures and Importers of products will be required to replace
high-GWP products with low-GWP or non-fluorocarbons ones,
considering safety, energy efficiency, economic affordability etc.
Example) Air conditioning
・Refrigerants GWP
・Volume of products
Index related to environmental impact
HighGWP
LowGWP
To reduce climate impact by converting refrigerant
to the target value which is specified referring to
the lowest GWP among the designated products
in Japan.

( New Measure ②)
Measures to conduct HFCs phase-down
Manufacturers and Importers of fluorocarbon gases will be required
to make their plans to conduct “HFCs phase-down” with development and production
of lower GWP gases considering safety, energy efficiency, economic affordability etc.
A guideline can be referred in order for them to make plans to reduce HFCs and
will be made based upon their prospective supply to follow the measures
on the designated products to lower GWP / non-fluorocarbons gases.
“Two Wheels” to drive the reductions
(Measures ①)
Promoting lower GWP/ non F-gases
products
(Measure ②)
Conducting phase-down HFCs
Total target amount set by METI
• To set every five years basically
• To be calculated automatically
based upon the measures on the
designated products by manufactures
Evaluation by METI
• Every five years basically

( New Measure ③)
Measures to reduce “In use leakage”
(conducting periodical check, repair before refilling etc.)
Users will be required to conduct periodical check, to call services to arrange repair
before refilling as soon as leakage is found, to record their maintenance, and
to disclose them to their maintenance operators etc.
Periodical check
users
“ log book ” to record items below
Record
Type/amount of refrigeration used
Details of maintenance report including periodical
check & repair record, date & time, result etc.
Maintenance/refilling
Disclose
Explain its necessity to be repaired
when leakage is identified.
Maintenance operators
( registered fillers & recovery operators)
Call a service immediately
to arrange repair/refill
as soon as leakage is found.

Summary of New Policy Measures in Japan
(Upstream)
1. Promote lower GWP / Non F-gas Products
by Manufacturers of products containing HFCs
2. Phase-down HFCs
by Producers of HFCs
considering safety, economic affordability, energy efficiency etc.
(Downstream)
3. Reduce “In use leakage” from commercial products
Periodical
check
Repair before
refilling
Log book
Report of
leakage
by Users of products containing F-Gases
No regulations in the case of using natural refrigerants & HFOs
Making progress to reduce HFCs surely and practically with incentives to:
1. Manufactures
→ to develop and produce products
containing lower GWP /non F-gases
2. Gas -Producers → to develop and produce Lower GWP F-gases
3. Users
→ to purchase non F-gases products
