Investigate Refrigerant Emissions: Climate and PFAS Pollution in Stockholm
The Environmental Administration proposes approving an investigation into greenhouse gas and PFAS emissions from refrigeration systems in Stockholm. The investigation estimates annual emissions at approximately 74 tons, 97 percent of which are PFAS-classified chemicals, with a climate impact equivalent to over 31,000 tons of CO2 equivalents. The Administration suggests continued efforts to increase knowledge, inform residents and businesses, and set clearer procurement requirements to reduce these emissions and protect the environment and health.
This summary is based on the meeting agenda. We'll update when the minutes are published.
