With a shared pursuit to make commercial trucking cleaner,
safer, and more efficient, this collaboration enables the companies
to align on a preferred electric trailer technology architecture,
including integrating Range’s electric trailer platform with Thermo
King's hybrid trailer refrigeration units (TRUs) and electric TRUs.
The integration process will also include extensive testing,
customer pilots, and the public demonstration of an electric
TRU.
“Accelerating the commercial adoption of electric trailers is
essential to helping fleet owners and operators meet emerging
emissions reduction goals and mandates. Working with Thermo King to
advance electric refrigerated trailers marks significant progress
in the electrification of commercial trucking, providing a
near-term and pragmatic solution for fleets of today and tomorrow,”
said Ali Javidan, CEO and founder, Range.
Through this collaboration, Range and Thermo King will focus on
driving innovation across key areas:
- Architectural definition and interoperability: Aligning
on the technical architecture for electric refrigerated trailers,
information exchange, model energy usage, charging options, and
evaluating single- and multi-temperature Thermo King TRUs.
- Operations testing: Identifying pilot customers to
utilize electric TRU trailers in live operations, as well as
developing and executing on an Operations Test Plan in Q3
2024.
- Manufacturing and commercialization: Evaluating assembly
requirements, manufacturing capabilities, supplier introductions,
and sales and servicing support; engaging third-party
standards-making organizations; and collaborating on regulatory
outcomes (e.g., weight allowances, emissions standards, charging
support, etc.) and government incentives to streamline commercial
adoption of electric TRUs.
“Thermo King’s commitment to sustainability and decarbonization
is only matched by our drive to provide customers with the
solutions they need. With that comes integrating innovative
technologies, like Range’s electric trailer platform, that can help
