Emission factor summary

Global Warming Potential (GWP) of a greenhouse gas not covered by the Kyoto Protocol and therefore reported under GHG Protocol outside of the scopes of an inventory. This should be used to report leakage from air-conditioning refrigeration units or other release to the atmosphere. CAS number: 75-71-8. Retrieved from the Conversion Factors 2021: flat file published by the UK Government at the source URL.
