Industry fact sheets

The Australian Institute of Refrigeration, Air conditioning and Heating (AIRAH) have recently developed a series of facts sheets on the equivalent carbon price aimed at informing industry on how to effectively manage the changes from 1 July 2012.

The fact sheets can be accessed on the AIRAH website (within Resources) at: www.airah.org.au
