As living standards rise for tens of millions in India, use of room air conditioners (ACs) is rapidly growing, straining India’s electric grid. One innovative approach that is rising to the challenge is using a commonly available hydrocarbon – propane (hydrocarbon 290, HC-290, or R-290) – as the refrigerant.

As living standards rise for tens of millions in India, use of room air conditioners (ACs) is rapidly growing, straining India’s electric grid. One innovative approach that is rising to the challenge is using a commonly available hydrocarbon – propane (hydrocarbon 290, HC-290, or R-290) – as the refrigerant. The standard-bearer for this approach in India is Godrej & Boyce Manufacturing Co. Ltd, the Indian appliance manufacturer which developed the R-290 AC for India.
The R-290 AC makes the case that ACs in the Indian market can be built using climate friendly refrigerant alternatives that protect the ozone layer, and at the same time make air conditioning more energy efficient and less costly to operate.
