On 2nd March more than 370 participants joined the live Real Alternatives’ webinar “Refrigerant Emissions Alternatives and Leakage – blended learning for low GWP refrigerants” for 3 hours of presentations with simultaneous translation in 6 languages and 13 speakers.
If you missed this important webinar, by clicking on the video preview it is possible to access the registration of the event, making it possible to benefit from the event even for those who have not been able to join live (almost 700 registrations were received).
Great feedback was obtained both from the experts and from the participants in the event: the presentations provided a valuable overview of the current situation of alternative refrigerants with low-GWP and how the REAL Alternatives project, today with 20 member countries, can support companies, technicians and associations in the transition towards new systems and safety while respecting the environment.
In addition to the experiences reported by the representatives of the many associations involved, the event also included two top-level technical presentations, based directly on the courses, by Marino Bassi Italy (Good practice for Flammable Refrigerants) and Kıvanç Aslantaş Turkey (Good practice for Carbon Dioxide).
The entire event was held in English and simultaneously translated into 5 European languages.
The REAL Alternatives Consortium’s aim is that the success of this event will lead to additional countries joining, in addition to those of the 20 countries already involved: further information on this is available on the project’s website www.realalternatives.eu and by contacting REAL Alternatives Ambassador, Mr Marco Buoni (ATF Secretary General and AREA President) at buoni@centrogalileo.it
