Carrier's eCool suite of electric truck and trailer refrigeration units meet the demands inherent to market transformation.
Carrier Transicold continues to develop innovative, high-performance refrigeration technologies that help customers manage evolving operational, regulatory and energy-related requirements. Through ongoing investment in electrification, connectivity and refrigeration innovation, we are focused on delivering solutions that support customer performance while creating long-term operational value.
Carrier Transicold has been pioneering electrification for more than 20 years. It all started with the strategic launch of our E-Drive™ all-electric technology in 1999, transforming mechanical transmissions into electricity. This was the gateway to fully electrifying our refrigeration units and expanding the use of electric refrigeration technology across our portfolio.
Electrification has been continuously growing in the passenger car industry over the years and is now significantly evolving the truck OEM industry by reaching cold chain transport equipment. Carrier Transicold is fully embracing and acting upon this transformation.
Today, Carrier Transicold is proud to offer an electric solution for 100% of our vehicle ranges.
Carrier Transicold now offers a suite of battery packs to support the transition to electric refrigeration technology. Battery packs are coupled with refrigeration systems in order to provide electric power directly to the unit.
For LCVs and light duty trucks, Mastervolt batteries are a good fit to power refrigeration units with smaller electrical power needs. For medium, heavy-duty trucks and trailers, Carrier Transicold has partnered with the Portuguese technology company AddVolt.
When it comes to Lithium-ion batteries, numerous options exist, and each comes with technological advantages and disadvantages. Depending on your needs, multiple criteria should factor into finding the best balance for your application.
