HCFCs – group of ozone depleting substances controlled under the Montreal Protocol
HCFCs have lower ozone depleting potential (ODP) than CFCs
HCFCs considered as transitional substances to replace CFCs before finding non-ODS alternatives

4. Common use of HCFCs
HCFCs – widely used as refrigerant and also as foam blowing agent and solvent
HCFC-22 or R-22 has been the “life blood” of domestic and commercial air- conditioning for many decades

5. Accelerated HCFC phase-out
19th Meeting of Parties to the Montreal Protocol in 2007 called for the accelerated phase out of HCFCs, with specific reduction targets, as well as directions for the Executive Committee and the Parties to expedite actions that will prioritise projects and programmes to meet this phase out (Decision XIX/16 )
Baseline level is average of 2009 and 2010

8. Guidelines for development of HPMP
HPMP – an over-arching plan to achieve total phase-out of HCFCs with flexibility to adjust such actions as technology and other cost guidelines become available, and based on the country’s needs
Adopted by the Executive Committee of the Multilateral Fund at its 54th Meeting in April (Decision 54/39)
Countries are classified as
those with consumption in the servicing sector only
those with consumption in both servicing and manufacturing sector

9. HPMP funding guidelines
Group according to consumption pattern
Maximum allowable funding
Countries with zero consumption of HCFC
US $30,000
Countries with consumption only of HCFC-22, or consumption below 6 ODP tonnes/year
US $85,000
Countries with medium consumption, between 6 ODP tonnes/year and 100 ODP tonnes/year
US $150,000
Countries with consumption higher than 100 ODP tonnes/year
US $195,000
ExCom Decision 56/16

10. Staged approch
Countries should adopt a staged approach to implement HPMP within the framework of their over-arching strategy
Stage 1 to provide concrete funding proposals to achieve freeze target in 2013 and ten percent reduction in 2015
Subsequent stage or stages can be proposed, if necessary
HPMP preparation to include HCFC control measures in legislation, regulations and licensing systems

11. Guidelines for countries with servicing and/or manufacturing
Countries with servicing sector only
Be consistent with existing guidelines for the preparation of RMPs and TPMPs
Contain commitments to achieve 2013 and 2015 control measures
Include a performance-based system based on the completion of activities to receive next annual funding
Countries with manufacturing sectors
Follow national performance-based phase-out plan
Provide starting point for aggregate reductions with annual reduction targets
