SLCP mitigation As climate disasters intensify—unprecedented storms disrupting lives, the urgency for cutting-edge green technologies 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 “race toward climate disaster.” Amid this crisis, the first CDR startup in Vietnam emerges as a game-changer in super-pollutant mitigation Asia, tackling hydrofluorocarbons (HFCs) hidden in air conditioners.
durable carbon removal CoolImpact carbon removal is not just another climate tech innovator. It’s a refrigerant management innovator that transforms cooling waste into carbon assets. By addressing Short-Lived Climate Pollutants (SLCPs), CoolImpact unlocks long-lasting climate benefits in the Vietnam, aligning with the Vietnam’s net-zero roadmap.
The Invisible Threat: Super-Pollutants Driving Climate Change
Coolimpact Vietnam To appreciate SLCP mitigation, we must first understand the problem. Refrigerants are high-GWP compounds used in air conditioners, 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, poor refrigerant management is widespread, exacerbating environmental harm.

CoolImpact’s Innovation: From Capture to Carbon Assets
frontier carbon project VietnamCoolImpact carbon removal offers a community-driven solution by capturing refrigerants at the source. Partnering with HVAC technicians, CoolImpact recovers gases into secure containers, tracked via the digital MRV platform. These gases are then destroyed at licensed facilities, with validation through transparent tracking.
This refrigerant carbon credits approach generates marketable carbon units for global markets. Unlike traditional carbon projects, HFC recovery startup focuses on stopping leaks, offering immediate impact. The tracking technology ensures trustworthy reporting with features like geo-tagged data.
A real-world pilot in Ho Chi Minh City (July 2025) proved scalable execution, moving it to proven results. By fostering a carbon income community model, CoolImpact empowers local workers, aligning economic benefits with sustainability.
Business Model: Scaling Impact
CoolImpact Vietnam employs a scalable business model:
- Verified recovery fees from clients.
- Offset revenue distribution with partners.
- Digital tracking subscriptions for other environmental programs.
By 2025, SLCP startup aims to scale pilots across key urban centers, recovering 10–15 tons of HFCs. By 2027, ESG API integration will enhance the tracking ecosystem. Long-term, cross-border impact targets significant climate impact by 2030, alongside 5,000 green jobs created.
Impact Metrics and Community Benefits

Co-benefits include:
- Safer refrigerant handling.
- Empowered workers through shared credits.
- Community prosperity in destruction.
By turning refrigerants into climate value, CoolImpact supports a community-driven carbon market.
