On 27 February 2015, EPA Administrator Gina McCarthy signed a final rule listing four additional hydrocarbon refrigerants (R290, R600a, R170 and R441A) as acceptable substitutes under the Significant New Alternatives Policy (SNAP) Programme in certain refrigeration and AC applications. The rule exempts these refrigerants from the venting prohibition in the approved end-uses.
Today’s rule is an example of how we can turn the challenge of climate change into an opportunity to innovate our way to a better future. By working together, businesses and EPA are bringing new, climate-friendly refrigerants to market that better protect our health and the environment,” said EPA Administrator Gina McCarthy
