Libraryrefrigerantgazlow gwpchillerscenarioHFO Motivation (why we need this feature): Updating library with new available gas on the market, Which regions need the feature?: Global, Which projects types does the feature support?: Buildings, Fit Outs, Which ratings systems require the feature?: all,

There are 2 gases that I believe should be updated into the eTool library:
– A relatively recent gas on the market is HFO-1233zd(E). There isn’t really a similar gas in the library currently that I could use as proxy (GWP is low but not zero; and 0 ODP impact)
– R134a should likely be updated with a 0 ODP impact.

    Similarly, R454B or also known as XL41. This is becoming a replacement for R410A however it has a much lower GWP. Does anyone know why we can’t enter or create our own refrigerants?
