On the news front, the total quota setting and distribution plan for the second and third generation refrigerant quotas in 2025 has been announced. According to the plan, the 2025 second-generation refrigerant quota scheme maintains the content of the previous draft, with R22 production and domestic use quotas reduced by 3.28 and 3.10 thousand tons compared to 2024, with reductions of 18% and 28% respectively; for the 2025 third-generation refrigerant, apart from an increase of 30 tons for R41 production quota compared to the previous draft, the quotas for other varieties remain unchanged, with an additional 0.045 million tons quota for R32, with a cumulative increase not exceeding 10%.
Donghai Securities pointed out that currently, the second-generation refrigerant R22 is mainly used for the maintenance market, with stable demand and a reduction in R22 quota expected to drive prices upward. As for the third-generation refrigerant, driven by this year's demand for household air conditioners, social inventories of R32 have decreased, prices have risen rapidly, although 35,000 tons of additional domestic quotas have been issued, it is currently seen that this has not had much impact on prices. Therefore, we believe that the additional quota issuance in 2025 will also not have a negative impact on the price of R32, and the prosperity of the third-generation refrigerant is expected to continue, with related refrigerant manufacturers expected to continue to benefit.
