In the rapidly evolving long-haul trucking industry, energy efficiency and regulatory compliance are increasingly critical for fleet operators and independent drivers. The electric Auxiliary Power Unit (APU)—a battery-powered climate control system—offers a cleaner alternative to traditional diesel APUs and engine idling. A notable example is Corunclima’s electric APU for the U.S. market, which is transforming in-cab comfort during rest periods.

Conventional idling or diesel APUs consume significant fuel, increase engine wear, generate noise, and conflict with anti-idling laws in states like California and Texas. The electric APU directly addresses these issues by operating entirely on battery power, independent of the main engine. Corunclima’s K20BS2 and K50BS models, designed for North American heavy-duty trucks, deliver cooling capacities from 9,500 to 15,000 BTU/h—comparable to diesel units—while using zero fuel. Powered by 12V/24V DC systems and lithium battery packs, they provide continuous overnight operation.
Environmentally, electric APUs eliminate idling, saving over a thousand gallons of diesel per truck annually and sharply cutting CO₂ and particulate emissions. For fleets, this means lower fuel costs, reduced maintenance, and progress toward sustainability goals. Technically, these systems feature compact DC compressors, efficient evaporators, and intelligent battery management, ensuring durability and minimal servicing—often exceeding a ten-year lifespan.
