GIZ Cool Training on Natural Refrigerant

The Green Cooling Initiative III (GCI III) is a project of the International Climate Initiative (IKI) on behalf of the German Federal Ministry for the Environment, Nature Conservation, Nuclear Safety and Consumer Protection (BMUV) and aims to promote sustainable cooling technologies and thus protect the climate. To achieve this, GCI promotes the "Green Cooling" approach by strengthening different actors and their capacities and serves as a global platform for the exchange of experience and knowledge. One of the objectives is to improve technical capabilities in the safe use of natural refrigerants and facilitate the exchange of experience and expertise at the regional level. In this context this training is being organized in the region of Latin America and the Caribbean (LAC).

In the context of the GCI III project, GIZ Proklima conducted an advanced Training of Trainers (ToT) in natural refrigerants in Trinidad and Tobago in August 2023. The training was divided into theory and practical sessions. The theoretical part dealt with the different types of natural refrigerants with focus on HC, CO2 and NH3 and practice will have a focus on propane in commercial refrigeration. The training was led by Mr. Reiner Mayers (Professor of the training center BFS, Germany). The target group of the training were teachers of refrigeration and air conditioning technologies.
