Reading, UK: Changing from diesel fuelled fridges to net zero refrigeration tops the agenda in Cold Chain News this month (October issue).
A major new report from the Cold Chain Federation takes on this challenge to achieve emission-free truck refrigeration.
The Cold Chain Federation’s new report sets out the first ever plan for how the UK coldchain can transition, with the right support from government, away from Transport Refrigeration Units (TRUs) reliant on diesel power and high GWP (Global Warming Potential) refrigerants to emission-free alternatives.
The Journey Towards Emission Free Temperature-controlled Distribution on Road Vehicles report is the result of 18 months of consultation with TRU operators, TRU and trailer manufacturers, refrigeration experts, innovators and other cold chain and logistics specialists.
