The California Cooling Act (SB 1013) was signed into law on September 13th, 2018. The bill directs the California Air Resources Board (CARB) to establish a statewide incentive program for the installation of technologies using low-GWP refrigerants.
There is one more critical step in this process. Funds for the incentive program must still be allocated by the legislature. Without support from our industry, the funding for incentives is at risk and may not be included in the State’s budget.
Take action today to ensure funding for the low-GWP incentive program by:
Submitting a letter of support to fund the incentive program. Contact NASRC staff for template language.
Attending CARB’s upcoming workshop on October 24th, 2018 to express comments of support.
Signing up for the NASRC Incentives Task Force to stay informed on incentive activities and opportunities.
