FRIDGE TRUCKS

Save Fuel and Reduce CO2 Emissions with Solar-Powered Fridge Trucks

The use of solar energy on refrigerated trucks can save up to 100% of the fuel used to power the cooling/reefer system.

Example Cooling System:

Consumption 4 L/hour of Diesel,
Operating 5 h/day * 240 d / year
Yearly consumption: 1,200 * 4L = 4.800 Liters per year
Total Diesel savings: € 1,80 * 4.800 = € 8.600

Additionally, the truck will reduce 6 Ton to 30 CO2 emissions per year (depending on the type of goods, distance travelled, etc.)

Our solutions are suitable for:



Transport companies with a fleet of trucks

Fridge Trucks Subsidies: Germany en Belgium

In Germany, a subsidy of 15 to 25% is possible for fridge trucks aiming to enhance cooling efficiency through measures like the installation of photovoltaic or solar systems and other alternative energy generation systems (category 7014). However, this subsidy is only applicable if the generated energy is utilized, for instance, to power the cooling device or other energy consumers on the trailer, or if it can augment availability without relying on external power sources.

In Belgium, subsidies of 25 to 40% are available for equipping non-location-bound cooling units (temporary cooling, vans, trucks, or trailers) with fully electric cooling units powered by batteries. These batteries are charged with grid power, self-generated green energy, or residual energy, excluding electricity generated by internal combustion engines using fossil fuels. Hybrid cooling units (diesel + electric) are not eligible.
