Webinar on naturals’ role in sustainable cooling

GERMANY: The German-government-supported agency GIZ Proklima is hosting a webinar on “green” heating and cooling on November 26.

As part of the Green Cooling Initiative, the webinar will outline the role of “natural” refrigerants as the future-proof backbone of sustainable heating and cooling.

It will open with a strategic overview of the role of “natural” refrigerants from the perspective of the trade group Eurammon, followed by insights from the renovation of the European Patent Office in Vienna – a case study of how ammonia-based heat pumps transformed an outdated building into a model of climate-conscious innovation. 

It will reveal how renovation and retrofitting with natural refrigerants can cut emissions, conserve resources, and future-proof existing infrastructure, showcasing a strong commitment to sustainability and CO₂ neutrality through smart reuse and efficient design.

The webinar will will take place from 12:00-13:00 UTC.
