Supermarket Architecture Trends Begin Here:

the Kigali Amendment to Montreal Protocol

• October 15, 2016

• “38th Meeting of the Parties to the Montreal Protocol on Substances That Deplete the Ozone Layer”

• Global agreement on HFC phase-down reached by 197 countries of the world in Kigali, Rwanda

Refrigeration Architectures for the Future Are Linked to Global Regulatory Changes in Selecting Refrigerants With Low Ozone Depletion and GWP.

Court Ruling:

• The 2015 SNAP ruling (Rule 20) which de-listed certain HFC’s like R404A was struck down by the court.

• The Court ruled EPA had authority to phase out ozone- depleting substances, but not HFCs which are non-ozone depleting.

• If the court’s ruling stands, the 2015 SNAP Rule 20 is vacated altogether.

• The Court issued an order withholding the decision, so the EPA July 2015 SNAP rule is in place until after the rehearing petition is resolved.

Appeal:

• On September 22, 2017 Honeywell and Chemours filed a petition to the Court request a rehearing of the case.

– The Court could deny the rehearing petition or rehear the case.

– No timeline exists on decision whether or not to rehear case but the Court could provide an indication of which way it is leaning by requesting additional briefing.

August 8th Ruling By D.C. Court of Appeals Declares EPA Does Not Have

Authority To Phase Out HFC Refrigerants

Response & Next Steps:

• In the next few weeks we will have an indication

• Stay tuned for future details on Court process.

• States like California may act to fill the void and potentially create regulations on HFCs.

Our Industry’s Approach to Innovation Will Need to Change

• Create and foster an environment of disruptive innovation that can help develop “out of the box or no box” thinkers and doers.

• Encourage holistic thinking, with a global systems point of view that can lead to creative solutions for the ultimate user (customer pain points, today and in the future).

• Foster bold collaboration within Emerson, and with academia and industry partners that leads to novel ways to solve our problems.

• Use stimulating real end-use scenarios that can help the thinking process and turn ideas into solutions that work.

What Is The Helix Innovation Center?

It is a building which fosters an environment for academia and

industry collaboration. The Helix is dedicated to advancing

research and education in heating, ventilation, air conditioning

and refrigeration technologies.

The Modules The center features interactive real-world environments, or

modules, designed to spur innovation and help advance the

technology used in homes, commercial buildings, supermarkets,

restaurants and data centers.
