The EU's F-Gas Regulation (EU) 2024/573, applicable since March 2024, is the main tool to drastically cut powerful F-gas emissions, aiming for a complete HFC phase-down by 2050 to meet climate goals. Key features include accelerated HFC reduction via quotas, new bans on F-gas use in various products, stricter rules for leak prevention and gas recovery, a production cap for HFCs, and enhanced digital monitoring. This regulation impacts all manufacturers, importers, and operators of F-gases and related equipment within the EU.
