The forecast for Hydrofluorocarbons (HFCs) emissions in the UK indicates a steady annual increase from 2024 through 2028. In 2023, these emissions stood at approximately 11.03 Million Metric Tons of CO2 Equivalent. Year-on-year, the emissions are expected to rise by 0.9% to 1% annually during the forecast period. The Compound Annual Growth Rate (CAGR) from 2024 to 2028 is projected to be around 0.9%, illustrating a consistent upward trend.
Future trends to watch for include:
- Government regulations targeting HFC reductions, which could alter emission projections.
- Advancements in alternative refrigerants and their adoption rates.
- Technological innovations in cooling efficiencies that could impact HFC use.
