Project Coordinator - FRIP Program (REMOTE)

About the Position:

The F-Gas Reduction Incentive Program (FRIP) is a California Air Resources Board (CARB) program aimed at reducing hydrofluorocarbon (HFC) emissions by accelerating the adoption of ultra-low-global warming potential (GWP) refrigerants. The program focuses on providing funding and technical support to commercial and industrial refrigeration facilities transitioning to climate-friendly refrigerant technologies.

We are seeking an organized and detail-oriented Project Coordinator to join our team and support the administration of the FRIP program. This role is critical in ensuring the smooth implementation and management of this important environmental initiative.

About the NASRC:

The North American Sustainable Refrigeration Council (NASRC) is a 501(c)(3) environmental nonprofit working to advance climate-friendly natural refrigerants and reduce greenhouse gas emissions caused by traditional hydrofluorocarbon (HFC) refrigerants. HFCs are super-polluting greenhouse gases commonly used in supermarket refrigeration and are one of the most potent drivers of climate change. Natural refrigerants are the most climate-friendly solution, but a unique set of market barriers have prevented their widespread adoption in U.S. supermarkets.

NASRC collaborates with stakeholders from across the industry, including over 55,000 food retail locations, to accelerate the adoption of natural refrigerants in supermarkets and advance one of the leading climate solutions.
