PHASING OUT OF THE IMPORTATION OF HYDROCHLOROFLUOROCARBON-BASED AIR CONDITIONERS IN GHANA

In partial fulfilment of Ghana’s obligations to phase out the consumption of Hydrochlorofluorocarbon (HCFCs), mainly R22 under the Montreal Protocol, a Hydrochlorofluorocarbon Phase-out Management Plan (HPMP) was developed to guide the implementation of the phasing out process.

As part of measures to fulfil this obligation, controls on the importation of R22 and R22 based equipment including air conditioners (ACs) was incorporated into the legislative instrument (L.I 1812) in tandem with the phase-out reduction scenario. Furthermore, in view of the need to take necessary measures to avoid dumping on our markets as the phase-out date approaches, the EPA in collaboration with the Energy Commission, hereinafter referred to as the implementing institutions held a stakeholder meeting with importers of air conditioners and reached an understanding to enforce an implementation of a quota system to control the volumes of R22 based ACs imported into the country starting January 1, 2022. The quota allocation was based on historical importation data of importers for the years 2018-2021

All importers who have been allocated importation quotas will be written to and are expected to heed to the quantities approved effective January 2022.

The Energy Commission will from same date (January 2022) reject applications for import from non-quota beneficiaries.
