Transcritical refrigeration systems - Cooling System (Green & Cool)

Green & Cool is a world-leading supplier of transcritical refrigeration systems that uses environmentally-friendly carbon dioxide (CO₂) as a refrigerant. In addition to outstanding environmental performance, the Green & Cool units offer superior lifetime economy and high reliability, as well as being very user-friendly. Green & Cool has developed modern CO₂ refrigeration to be a commercially-attractive alternative. CO₂ systems are developed to provide businesses that have less-demanding refrigeration requirements, such as small shops and petrol stations, with an affordable and uncomplicated, but environmentally friendly, option.

The CO₂ as a refrigerant is the best available alternative for the environment. The CO₂ in Green & Cool units does not contribute to global warming, while traditional alternatives such as F-gases (HFCs and HCFCs) are powerful greenhouse gases with a global warming effect far greater than CO₂. HFOs, the fourth generation of F-gases, have a low climate impact relative to older F-gases, but the chemicals present unknown risks to the environment and human health. In addition, comparative trials consistently show that units that use CO₂ as a refrigerant can be more energy efficient than those that use F-gases. Natural refrigerants such as CO₂ are the best available technology and a long-term solution.
