New air conditioners equipped with Artificial Intelligence (AI) to optimize energy consumption, or portable air conditioners without an exhaust vent (often called evaporative coolers) that simulate cooling through water evaporation.
Air Conditioners with Artificial Intelligence (AI)
These devices use algorithms to automatically adjust cooling based on the number of people in the room and outdoor conditions.

TCL Air Conditioner: This residential model offers customized comfort and optimized air quality management thanks to AI.
Samsung Wind-Free™: Uses AI to analyze user habits and automatically cycle through three cooling stages without direct airflow.

Portable Air Conditioners Without Exhaust (Coolers)
Unlike traditional air conditioners, these units do not expel hot air outside but instead use the principle of adiabatic cooling (water evaporation).

Midea Air Conditioner: A "next-generation" unit that can cool a room up to 80 m²
Innovative Portable Air Conditioners
Midea currently dominates the portable air conditioner market with models that bridge the performance gap with fixed systems.

Midea PortaSplit
Unique Concept: This is a portable split air conditioner that combines an indoor and an outdoor unit connected by a flat pipe, allowing for window installation without any construction work.

Performance: Offers a cooling capacity of 3.5 kW with a SEER of 6.1, which is exceptional for a portable unit.

Expert opinion: Users report that it is significantly quieter than a conventional portable air conditioner (40-52 dB) and very effective for apartments where work is prohibited.

Midea Duo (MAP14S1TBL)
Technology: Named "Best Portable Air Conditioner of 2026," this model uses a dual-hose system within a single duct to prevent cool air loss.

Midea Air Conditioning unveiled a robust portfolio of sustainable innovations at C&R 2025, Spain's leading trade fair for air conditioning, heating, cooling, and ventilation professionals. New products include Midea's R290 series, the ECOMASTER system, the PortaSplit portable unit, and the H-Pack modular solution, showcasing the group's leadership in energy efficiency, natural refrigerants, and intelligent climate control. The R290 series embodies the brand's "GREEN VISION BLUE FUTURE" philosophy.

Recognized as the world's first manufacturer to commercialize air conditioners using R290 refrigerant, Midea began this journey in 2010 with a UN-funded pilot line. The company now operates 12 advanced production lines with an annual capacity of 6.4 million units. Midea's R290 solutions have been widely adopted internationally, making a significant contribution to reducing carbon emissions and influencing global standards in favor of environmentally friendly refrigerants.

Backed by a research force of over 10,000 engineers and 42 pilot laboratories, Midea has developed a comprehensive range of R290 products covering the residential, commercial, and industrial sectors, in line with its strategy to make green technology accessible and scalable. Another highlight is ECOMASTER, an artificial intelligence (AI) system dedicated to energy savings, which optimizes the performance of Midea appliances, including air conditioners, to reduce electricity consumption.

By continuously monitoring indoor conditions and outdoor weather forecasts, ECOMASTER makes real-time adjustments with a tolerance of ±0.3°C. This system ensures consistent comfort while optimizing energy use, resulting in savings of over 30%. Integrated into models such as Solstice and Solunar, this system sets new standards for efficiency.

Solstice boasts an A+++ rating for cooling and A++ for heating, while Solunar achieves A++ and A+ respectively, embodying the new generation of smart and sustainable air conditioners. The PortaSplit portable unit also generated considerable interest. Designed for high performance and flexible installation, it features a SEER of 6.1 and a SCOP of 4.0. Its design adapts to a variety of European windows, including French balconies, attics, and horizontal sliding doors.

This versatility makes it suitable for a wide range of residential styles, from contemporary apartments to heritage buildings. Demonstrations at the booth highlighted its tool-free, three-step installation, which has already generated strong demand and a sold-out launch in France. Midea also presented the H-Pack, a compact heating solution selected for the C&R 2025 Innovation Gallery, highlighting low GWP refrigerants, digital control and circular economy principles.

Designed by Midea's European R&D team, the H-Pack uses the environmentally friendly R290 refrigerant and requires no outdoor unit. Its modular design, ready for indoor installation, ensures optimal compatibility with gas boiler systems while simplifying installation and maintenance. Combining efficiency, versatility, and space saving, it offers an economical approach to modern heating.

Live demonstrations conducted by German experts illustrated the H-Pack's user-friendliness and its tangible benefits in real-world conditions. Beyond product innovation, Midea fostered professional engagement through interactive workshops throughout the event, promoting technical exchange and industry collaboration.

The professional blog, in particular Hemmera, leader in air conditioning and industrial cooling solutions, discusses the recent adoption of the revision of the regulation on fluorinated gases by the European Union, known as F-Gas III, this Regulatory change does not only redefine the framework for action. for manufacturers, distributors and end users in the industry, but also establishes new environmental targets aligned with global climate goals.

Introduction to the F-Gas III Regulation
Since its creation, Regulation (EU) No. 517/2014 has constituted a fundamental pillar in the management and control of fluorinated greenhouse gases, hydrofluorocarbons (HFCs), within the European Union, its revision, known under the name F-Gaz III proposes stricter measures, accelerating the reduction of these substances, crucial because of their strong global warming potential.

What is F-Gas III?
F-Gas III is the evolution of European regulations aimed at limiting the use of fluorinated gases, introducing more ambitious objectives for the gradual reduction of HFCs until their total elimination in 2050, this legal framework aims not only to protect the environment but also to promote innovation and the adoption of greener technologies in the industry.

Main changes of F-Gas III in the market
The changes introduced by F-Gas III are significant, highlighting the sharp reduction in HFC quotas and the ban on the marketing of certain products containing these gases.

This process is structured as follows:
11% of the total volume of quotas will be allocated to new operators, in order to encourage the entry of new players into the market.
A complete ban will be implemented on the marketing of certain products and devices containing HFCs, including but not limited to household refrigerators, coolers, foams and aerosols.
New specific restrictions and/or limitations will be established for the commercial and industrial refrigeration sector, as well as for air conditioning, heat pumps and electrical switches.
Certification processes will be reviewed, with the aim of ensuring that they reflect the most current and sustainable practices.
Regular evaluation reports will be scheduled, with the first expected in 2027, the results of which could involve regulatory adjustments, either to strengthen or relax existing measures, depending on the findings.

Impact on the air conditioning and industrial refrigeration market
The impact of F-Gas III on the market is profound. Companies will have to adapt to a scenario where traditional refrigerants are gradually replaced by alternatives with less environmental impact (with a lower GWP index, or GWP in English). This affects not only production but also the maintenance and overhaul of existing equipment.

HFC Fee Reduction Details
F-Gas III establishes a detailed schedule for reducing HFC quotas, starting with a significant reduction upon entry into force and continuing with periodic adjustments until reaching total phase-out in 2050, this reduction program requires the industry to rethink its practices and products. .

Among the most notable measures is a complete ban on the marketing of specific products containing HFCs, such as certain types of refrigerators and air conditioners, marking a clear commitment to sustainable development.
