Innovative technologies reduce emissions and accelerate electrification of transport refrigeration
Thermo King®, a leader in transport temperature control solutions and a brand of Trane Technologies (NYSE: TT), today unveiled cutting edge truck, trailer and bus solutions for cold chain electrification and decarbonization at IAA Transportation 2022 in Hannover, Germany. The launches include three next generation models for Advancer™, a pacesetter in electric trailer refrigeration; the brand-new, all-electric E-Series, designed for battery-powered vehicles; and a high-performing, natural refrigerant CO2 heat pump for electric buses. Combined, these technologies reduce emissions and energy consumption, expand sustainable power sources, and increase efficiency.
The latest launches will help meet Thermo King’s commitment to deliver fully electric products in every segment of the cold chain in Europe, Middle East, Africa (EMEA) by 2023, and in the Americas by 2025.
