super-pollutant mitigation Asia As climate disasters intensify—extreme weather threatening ecosystems, 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, CoolImpact Vietnam emerges as a leader in carbon removal Asia, tackling hydrofluorocarbons (HFCs) hidden in air conditioners.
carbon removal Asia CoolImpact carbon removal is not just another green startup Southeast Asia. It’s a refrigerant management innovator that transforms cooling waste into carbon assets. By addressing HFCs and F-gases, CoolImpact unlocks sustainable carbon offsets in the Vietnam, aligning with the Kigali Amendment Vietnam.

The Invisible Threat: HFCs Driving Climate Change
green startup Southeast Asia To appreciate SLCP mitigation, we must first understand the problem. Refrigerants are high-GWP compounds used in refrigerators, with a global warming potential (GWP) exponentially worse than CO₂. As short-term climate forcers, they cause rapid warming despite their shorter atmospheric lifespan. In Southeast Asia, uncontrolled disposal is widespread, accelerating global warming.
HFC-based CDRVietnam generates thousands of tons of F-gases annually from air conditioning units. Most are vented improperly, undermining Vietnam’s net-zero commitments. SLCP mitigation offers immediate environmental impact, making it a urgent need for sustainable development.

CoolImpact’s Innovation: From Capture to Climate Value
climate tech VietnamCoolImpact Vietnam offers a scalable solution by recovering super-pollutants at the source. Partnering with refrigeration experts, CoolImpact recovers gases into verified storage units, tracked via the CoolImpact App. These gases are then destroyed at licensed facilities, with verification through MRV protocols.
This super-pollutant mitigation approach generates certified offsets for global markets. Unlike traditional carbon projects, refrigerant offset Vietnam focuses on eliminating super-pollutants, offering immediate impact. The CoolImpact App ensures accountability with features like geo-tagged data.
A practical demonstration in Ho Chi Minh City (July 2025) proved operational success, moving it into reality. By fostering a carbon income community model, CoolImpact supports communities, aligning local livelihoods with carbon reduction.
Business Model: Turning Waste into Wealth
HFC recovery startup employs a multifaceted business model:
- Verified recovery fees from HVAC providers.
- Shared climate credit revenue with partners.
- ESG reporting tools for other climate initiatives.
By 2025, CoolImpact aims to expand operations across five provinces, recovering large-scale super-pollutants. By 2027, global carbon standard registration will enhance the climate tech infrastructure. Long-term, export to Southeast Asia targets significant climate impact by 2030, alongside 5,000 green jobs created.
Impact Metrics and Added Value

Co-benefits include:
- Safer refrigerant handling.
- Empowered workers through economic benefits.
- Sustainable employment in recovery.
By turning refrigerants into climate value, CoolImpact supports a equitable climate model.
