What is clean cooling?
Cooling and heating that is environmentally, socially and economically sustainable, and accessible to all.
Clean cooling is measured where four commitments converge: the Paris Agreement, the Kigali Amendment, the Montreal Protocol and the UN Sustainable Development Goals. The concept was developed by Professor Toby Peters; ATMOsphere has built the measurement framework around it since 2020.
The fastest route there runs through natural refrigerants: CO₂ (R-744), ammonia (R-717), propane (R-290), water (R-718) and air (R-729).
Ultra-low GWP, no TFA, measured against phase-down deadlines.
Cooling people can afford, with access weighed as rigorously as emissions.
Systems that pay back, documented in the ATMO Market Reports since 2012.
Defining ‘Clean Cooling’
The founding paper by the Centre for Sustainable Cooling and ATMOsphere (then shecco): the definition, and the standards by which the impact of cooling systems is measured.
