Training T
he alternative refrigerants e-learning platform from the Real Alternatives 4 Life project is now live and available in 15 languages.
The Real Alternatives 4 Life project is supported by national leads in 12 different European countries (shown in green).
The e-learning platform is a free tool which focuses on safety, efficiency, reliability and containment of low GWP alternative refrigerants – carbon dioxide, ammonia, hydrocarbon and low flammables (HFOs and R32). There are nine learning modules, which cover: ■ Introduction to Alternative Refrigerants – safety, efficiency, reliability and good practice demonstrations
■ Safety and risk assessment ■ System design using alternative refrigerants
■ Containment and leak detection of alternative refrigerants
■ Maintenance and repair of alternative refrigerant systems
■ Retrofitting existing systems ■ Checklist of legal obligations when working with alternative refrigerants
■ Measuring the financial and environmental impact of leakage
■ Tools and guidance for conducting site survey.
The new platform has also been updated to include demonstration videos covering both flammables and carbon dioxide principles. To support the e-learning programme, the Real Alternatives 4 Life team is organising ‘train the trainer’ events from March to June 2019 across Europe. With a focus on flammables and carbon dioxide, these events will provide trainers with a practical introduction to the Real Alternatives 4 Life programme which includes assessments and certification, as well as information about how to set up and market Real Alternatives training events. This will lead to a network of over 100 licenced training providers in alternative refrigerants throughout Europe.
The Real Alternatives 4 Life project is supported by national leads in 12 different European countries: Spain, Germany, Belgium, Italy, Poland, UK, Romania, Turkey, Croatia, Portugal, Slovakia and Czech Republic.
