Evaluation of the possibilities of substituting potent greenhouse gases (HFCs, PFCs and SF6)

Abstract
The consumption of the potent greenhouse gases (HFCs, PFCs and SF6) amounts to approx. 1,000 tons per year (1999). If this entire amount is emitted to the atmosphere, it will correspond to an emission of approx. 1.8  million tons of CO2. In comparison, the Danish CO2 emission was of 55.7 million tons in 1999. The present emission of these substances is however lower as a large part of the substances are accumulated in products.

The Danish Environmental Protection Agency will, when op-portunity offers, publish reports and contributions relating to environmental research and development projects financed via the Danish EPA.
