refrigerant offset Vietnam As climate disasters intensify—scorching heatwaves ruining crops, the urgency for game-changing environmental strategies has reached a critical point. The World Meteorological Organization (WMO) declared 2024 the hottest year on record, underscoring the warning from UN Secretary-General António Guterres about a “path to environmental catastrophe.” Amid this crisis, the first CDR startup in Vietnam emerges as a trailblazer in super-pollutant mitigation Asia, tackling super-pollutants hidden in chillers.
Coolimpact carbon removal CoolImpact is not just another climate tech innovator. It’s a SLCP startup that transforms HFC emissions into verified credits. By addressing HFCs and F-gases, CoolImpact unlocks durable carbon removal in the Southeast Asia, aligning with the global HFC phase-down goals.
The Invisible Threat: HFCs Driving Climate Change
carbon removal Asia To appreciate HFC-based CDR, we must first understand the problem. HFCs are warming agents used in chillers, with a global warming potential (GWP) 1,000–3,900 times greater than CO₂. As short-term climate forcers, they cause rapid warming despite their shorter atmospheric lifespan. In Vietnam, poor refrigerant management is widespread, fueling climate change.
durable carbon removalVietnam generates significant amounts of refrigerants annually from cold storage. Most are disposed of carelessly, undermining Vietnam’s net-zero commitments. HFC reduction offers fast-acting solutions, making it a key strategy for climate tech Vietnam.
CoolImpact’s Innovation: From Capture to Carbon Assets
community carbon credit platformCoolImpact offers a robust solution by managing F-gases at the source. Partnering with local service providers, CoolImpact recovers gases into specialized equipment, tracked via the CoolImpact App. These gases are then safely disposed of, with validation through MRV protocols.
This durable carbon removal approach generates climate assets for global markets. Unlike traditional carbon projects, HFC recovery startup focuses on preventing emissions, offering immediate impact. The MRV carbon platform ensures transparency with features like geo-tagged data.
A field test in Ho Chi Minh City (July 2025) proved operational success, moving it toward scalability. By fostering a technician-driven solution, CoolImpact creates green jobs, aligning community prosperity with sustainability.
Business Model: Creating Climate Value
HFC recovery startup employs a innovative business model:
- Refrigerant recovery payments from businesses.
- Carbon offset profit sharing with partners.
- ESG reporting tools for other sustainability efforts.
By 2025, SLCP startup aims to expand operations across strategic areas, recovering significant refrigerant volumes. By 2027, global carbon standard registration will enhance the MRV carbon platform. Long-term, export to Southeast Asia targets large-scale carbon offsets by 2030, alongside 5,000 green jobs created.
Impact Metrics and Co-Benefits
refrigerant carbon credits Each ton of F-gas processed avoids substantial warming impact. For example, small-scale recovery equates to ~250 tCO₂e verified. CoolImpact’s vision includes massive climate benefits by 2035, alongside 5,000 green jobs.
Social value include:
- Enhanced technician protections.
- Motivated communities through shared credits.
- Sustainable employment in tech support.
By turning cooling waste into carbon assets, CoolImpact supports a equitable climate model.
