Farnborough, UK: Electric, axle-powered, and other low or zero-emission technologies from Thermo King and Frigoblock will dominate the stand at the ITT Hub this month.
Visitors to Frigoblock and Thermo King’s stand in the Cold Chain Hub at the ITT Hub can expect electric, axle-powered, and other low or zero-emission technologies and other innovations that advances clean, quiet and high-performance refrigerated transport for truck, trailers and the last mile.
“Innovation in non-diesel refrigeration is changing the industry enabling operators to reduce their carbon footprint without compromising the cold chain,” said Jon Jerrard-Dinn, area sales manager at Thermo King and Frigoblock.
”As cargo transport is increasing, the industry is moving the needle on reducing carbon emissions and getting ready for the transition to fully electric cargo transportation. We are looking forward to demonstrate and discuss at the exhibition, how existing technology reduces emissions from refrigeration systems in vans, trucks and trailer vehicles powered by virtually any fuel source.”
Thermo King will show the UK’s first trailer with the Advancer AxlePower energy recovery system to start operations with Turners (Soham). Advancer AxlePower was developed in partnership with BPW Bergische Achsen, and is a fully integrated, tractor independent system that combines BPW’s E-Power axle with Thermo King refrigeration unit and power management technology. The AxlePower’s smart energy generating system delivers the power needed to run the trailer refrigeration unit by converting energy recovered by the trailer’s axle during the vehicle’s routine operation.
