The Kenya low GWP (Global Warming Potential) refrigerants market is experiencing growth propelled by regulatory measures to phase out ozone-depleting substances and reduce greenhouse gas emissions from refrigeration and air conditioning systems. Low GWP refrigerants such as hydrofluoroolefins (HFOs) and hydrocarbons offer environmentally friendly alternatives to traditional refrigerants with high global warming potentials. With the transition towards sustainable cooling solutions, the demand for low GWP refrigerants is expected to increase in Kenya.
The Kenya low global warming potential (GWP) refrigerants market is witnessing growth driven by regulatory restrictions on high-GWP refrigerants such as hydrochlorofluorocarbons (HCFCs) and hydrofluorocarbons (HFCs) due to their contribution to climate change and ozone depletion. Low-GWP refrigerants, including hydrocarbons, ammonia, carbon dioxide, and hydrofluoroolefins (HFOs), offer environmentally friendly alternatives with reduced greenhouse gas emissions and ozone depletion potential. In Kenya, government regulations aligned with international agreements such as the Kigali Amendment to the Montreal Protocol drive the phase-out of high-GWP refrigerants and the adoption of low-GWP alternatives in refrigeration, air conditioning, and heat pump systems. Moreover, the growing awareness of environmental sustainability and the need for energy-efficient cooling solutions further stimulate market growth by creating opportunities for low-GWP refrigerant retrofitting and new equipment installations.
Challenges in the low GWP refrigerants market of Kenya include regulatory compliance, technology adoption barriers, and market acceptance. Developing refrigerants with low global warming potential, ensuring compatibility with existing refrigeration systems, and addressing safety concerns pose significant challenges for refrigerant manufacturers.
To address climate change and ozone depletion concerns, the Kenya government promotes the transition to low-global warming potential (GWP) refrigerants in refrigeration and air conditioning systems. Policies include phase-out schedules for high-GWP refrigerants, incentives for technology adoption, and capacity building programs for technicians to support the use of low-GWP alternatives.
