The objective of the Third Ozone Depleting Substances and Hydrochlorofluorocarbon (HCFC) Phase-out Project is to support Jordan in its overall efforts to meet its first Montreal Protocol HCFC phase-out obligations between 2013 and 2017, and to strengthen the capacity of responsible government entities to continue to effectively implement the Montreal Protocol. There are three components to the project, the first component being investment in HCFC consumption reductions. Investments will be made in residential AC manufacturing enterprises in Jordan and complement the already approved Petra project. This component therefore includes coordination of conversions of at least six enterprises: one addressed through the United Nations Industrial Development Organization (UNIDO)-implemented Multilateral Fund for the Implementation of the Montreal Protocol (MLF) grant, three under this project, and two enterprises, which are not eligible for MLF financing that will convert on their own in compliance with future Government regulatory actions to ban HCFC-based manufacturing. The second component is the technical assistance, policy and AC sector plan management. This component is To support implementation of investment interventions under the project, assistance will be provided for technical experts who will support beneficiaries to inter alia, prepare project proposals and equipment specifications, develop prototypes and complete the conversions (technical support), and complete project completion reports. Finally, the third component is the institutional strengthening.
