Energy saving
CO2
R744
R32
Natural CO2 / R744.
R744 refrigerant provides higher energy saving and lower
CO2 emission compared to R404A. Zero ODP and GWP=1
means natural substance.
Inverter Plus system.
Inverter Plus system classification highlights Panasonic’s
highest performing systems.
Refrigerant R32.
Our heat pumps containing R32 refrigerant show a drastic
reduction in the value of Global Warming Potential (GWP). An
important step to reduce greenhouse gases. R32 is also a
component refrigerant, making it easy to recycle.
High efficiency compressor.
Powerful 2-stage CO2 rotary compressor by Panasonic. It
delivers high performance all year around.

Why CO2?: Natural refrigerant.
EU F-Gas regulation is a key priority for European
countries. It ensures compliance with the Kigali
Amendment supporting international climate
commitments on greenhouse gases and leading the global
transition to climate-friendly HFC-free technologies.
Carbon dioxide (R744) is regaining its place in the
refrigeration world. Driven by environmental concerns,
legislation now requires increased adoption of ‘alternative’
refrigerants, such as CO2.
CO2 is an environmentally-friendly solution, with zero 0DP
and “GWP” (Global Warming Potential)=1 means natural
substance in the atmosphere.
In Europe a step-by-step HFC reduction has been in place
since the F-Gas regulation was introduced in 2015.
Countries all over the world have actively been preparing
to enact the necessary domestic legislation to implement
the agreement to reduce the use of HFCs.
Panasonic is now able to provide a solution in Europe with
CO2 refrigeration systems to prevent global warming and
to support environment-friendly retail operations.
The following table shows how well R744 (CO2) performs
regarding environmental impact and safety.
ODP (Ozone Depletion Potential) = 0 - GWP (Global Warming Potential) = 1
