6 Mandate to GTZ Proklima PROKLIMA Implementation of the German bilateral quota (20% of the German contributions to the Multilateral Fund) Support of technologies at the point of intersection between ozone and climate protection Reducing the consumption of industrial gases which negatively affect the ozone layer as well as the global climate Operationalizing cross-conventional strategies Realizing synergies with other international environmental agreements (e.g. Basel, Kyoto, Rotterdam, Stockholm) Seite Page 6

7 GTZ Proklima (1) PROKLIMA Started in 1996, mandated by the German Federal Ministry for Economic Cooperation and Development (BMZ). Proklima advises partner country governments on drafting local regulations and setting policies that will comply with all international environmental agreements. Proklima assists companies in replacing ozone depleting technologies with environmentally friendly and economically attractive alternatives. Proklima ensures that promoted replacement technologies comply not only with the obligations under the Montreal Protocol, but also with other international environmental agreements, such as the Kyoto Protocol Seite Page 7

8 PROKLIMA GTZ Proklima (2) Proklima cooperates with private and public partners: United Nations organizations and World Bank; Governments in partner countries in Africa, Asia and Latin-America; Bilateral agencies (AFD, SDC, ) Associations representing industrial sectors; Vocational training institutions; Individual companies in the production and service sectors. At present Proklima cooperates with 30 countries in Africa, Asia and Latin America in the fields of refrigeration, foam blowing, fire fighting equipment and agriculture Seite Page 8

9 GTZ Proklima (3) PROKLIMA GTZ Proklima has implemented over 150 projects in almost 40 countries with an overall volume of more than US$ 30 million. It is thus the biggest bilateral programme to be associated with the Multilateral Fund for the implementation of the Montreal Protocol. In India, Proklima at present implements 2 multilateral and 1 bilateral project: Seite Page 9

10 Project History In India Seite Page 10

11 ECOFRIG ( ) 1992: ECOFRIG project launched as an Indo-Swiss-German collaboration. Goal: Contributing to a timely, self-reliant and sustainable phase-out of CFCs in the Indian domestic and commercial refrigeration sector. Approach: Promotion of low GWP hydrocarbon refrigerant as a replacement for CFC refrigerants. 1 st Phase: Application of low GWP cyclopentane foam technology as a replacement of CFC-12, avoiding the transitional HCFC-141b route. 2 nd Phase: Godrej & Boyce Mfg Co Ltd. Appliance Division converted to hydrocarbon blend refrigerant. The full-size conversion project was implemented with support from the Multilateral Fund to the Montreal Protocol in 2001/2002). Total investment by Switzerland and Germany: approx. 10 million USD (industry contribution exceeded this investment) Seite Page 11

12 HIDECOR ( ) Human and Institutional Development in Ecological Refrigeration 2001: HIDECOR project launched as an Indo-Swiss collaboration. Goal: Providing training on good servicing practice and hydrocarbon based retrofit to service technicians in the Refrigeration and Air-Conditioning (RAC) sector. Geographic focus: Initial focus states: Tamil Nadu, Karnataka, Andhra Pradesh, Maharashtra, Gujarat, Delhi and West Bengal States subsequently added : Punjab, Haryana, Uttar Pradesh, Rajasthan and Kerala (in anticipation of NCCoPP) Seite Page 12

13 NCCoPP ( ) National CFC Consumption Phase-out Plan 2004: NCCoPP project launched based on the Agreement between India and the Executive Committee of the Multilateral Fund. Goal: Providing training on good service practice and to service technicians in the Refrigeration and Air-Conditioning (RAC) sector. Geographic focus: All over India. Funding: 6.3 million USD Seite Page 13

14 Areas Of Training Activities NCCoPP Standard training for servicing of domestic and small commercial appliances Mobile Air-Conditioning (MAC) Selected commercial systems / Open Type Compressors (OTC) in food processing and preservation Selected institutional users Seite Page 14

15 Achievements of HIDECOR & NCCoPP 20,000+ technicians trained in best practice in service delivery. Remote areas of the country accessed (60% programmes were outside the major cities). Knowledge about CFC phase-out and good service practice is now wide-spread amongst small firms in covered areas. Training infrastructure and methodology established. 1,000+ equipment supplied Seite Page 15

16 Improvement of Service Practices Seite Page 16

17 CTC Phase-out Plan Textiles Industry Metal Industry Seite Page 17

18 Approach Enabling industries to take timely and informed decisions on the alternative for CTC Generate timely awareness Disseminate information on viable alternatives Provide technical assistance Key guiding principles Safeguarding quality standards and competitiveness Safeguarding occupational health and safety Maintenance of independence from brands and products Seite Page 18

19 India: Key Proactive Policy Actions Mandatory registration of all ODS users with reporting obligations Control on creation of new capacity/expansion of ODSbased industry since 2000 Import and export of ODS are subject to licensing Use of CFCs in manufacturing prohibited from 2003 (except MDIs) Use of Halons is prohibited since 2001 (except for servicing and essential uses) Phase-out of production of CFCs from August 2008; 17 months ahead of Montreal Protocol phase-out schedule Seite Page 19

21 Key Challenges 2013/2015 Compliance Very short time available for actions to meet 2013/2015 compliance requirements High growth rate in consumption Viable and environmentally sustainable alternatives to HCFCs are still emerging Relatively comfortable and cost-effective availability of HCFCs as compared to alternatives Lack of awareness and prohibitive costs of alternatives is a deterrent to their adoption by industry Uncertain climate impacts of alternatives, leads to reluctance of industry to experiment Seite Page 21

22 Action Plan /2015 Compliance Prepare a comprehensive HCFC Phase-Out Management Plan (HPMP) addressing all the relevant sectors and sub-sectors where reductions are feasible Policy, regulations and other instruments need to be fine-tuned and strengthened Strengthening institutional capacity to monitor and manage the HPMP Create and intensify stakeholder and public awareness to increase motivation for adoption of alternatives Facilitate evaluation of HCFC alternatives in each sector/sub-sector Reduce HCFC consumption through technology conversions and promoting alternative use through fiscal and other incentives Align actions in the production and consumption sectors Seite Page 22

23 Message from GTZ-Proklima HFCs, which are currently still considered the business as usual alternatives to HCFCs are increasingly under pressure from both the Kyoto and Montreal Protocols. Even the United States this year introduced regulation to minimize or eliminate them. HFCs and other fluorinated alternatives to HCFCs are synthetic gases which are expensive. They need to be introduced with stringent regulation to avoid release into the atmosphere. This requires information, training and enforcement. Natural Refrigerants (hydrocarbons, ammonia, CO2) are cheap and carry no patents. They also need strict regulation to avoid accidents. This also requires information and training for concerned personnel. Most countries are in an excellent position to use and further develop these technologies for their benefit. Natural Refrigerants may be more economical and sustainable to be introduced as alternatives to HCFC Seite Page 23
