Description of innovation in field of air conditioning and refrigeration using lower-GWP refrigerants. Must be a new technology, be an innovative application in a developing country or demonstrate a new approach supporting lower GWP refrigerants rather than use of an innovative technology in a new market in the same way the technology is applied in developed markets. (Maximum 3,000 characters)

Project implementation and safety details. Must be an implemented project, system, or application (not only research) with implementation year. Describe steps in implementation of innovation - including description of safety practices introduced, promoted, or supported to align with the chosen refrigerant. (Maximum 5,000 characters)

Extent of need. Must describe the problem addressed or the challenge met in a developing country. (Maximum 2,000 characters)

Environmental and energy impact. Must describe the beneficial environmental impact achieved including specific reference to the lower GWP refrigerant’s contribution. Must describe energy saving features. (Maximum 3,000 characters)

Further application. Describe the benefit of applying the innovation in other developing countries from technological, economical and social perspectives. (Maximum 4,000 characters)
