The Refrigeration, Air Conditioning and Heat Pump (RACHP) sector is pivotal to the wellbeing of society. Having to adapt to challenges and the evolving landscape, the RACHP contracting sector has undergone fundamental changes due to a combination of factors, from the energy crisis to the fight against climate change.
Recognising the need to actively tackle the challenges and changes faced while preparing for the future, the AREA Vision 2030 outlines four pillars that are crucial to ensure a safe and swift transition towards a sustainable RACHP sector:
- Refrigerants: Succeeding in the transition towards alternative refrigerants
- Human capital: Attracting and retaining skilled personnel
- Sustainable innovation: Supporting energy and resource efficiency principles in a lifecycle approach
- Framework conditions: Promoting a coherent and supportive regulatory and standardisation framework.
These pillars will serve as overarching strategic imperatives that will guide AREA’s activities in the next Five years.
