In a significant step towards decarbonizing the transport sector, Corunclima has unveiled its groundbreaking high cooling capacity electric Auxiliary Power Unit (APU). Designed primarily for the freight and logistics industry, this advanced system provides robust climate control for truck cabins and sensitive cargo during mandatory rest periods, entirely without the need to idle the main diesel engine. By eliminating overnight idling, the technology directly addresses a major source of greenhouse gas emissions, fuel waste, and noise pollution from long-haul operations.

The newly launched APU distinguishes itself through its exceptional cooling performance, capable of maintaining comfortable cabin temperatures even in extreme heat conditions. This ensures driver comfort and safety without compromise. Furthermore, by operating on electric power, often stored in integrated or vehicle-mounted battery banks, it offers dramatic reductions in operating costs compared to diesel-powered alternatives. Fleet operators can anticipate significant savings on fuel and reduced maintenance expenses associated with engine wear from idling.

Corunclima's system is engineered for seamless integration, supporting various power sources including shore power connections at depots, future electric truck chassis, or independent battery solutions. This flexibility makes it a future-proof investment for companies transitioning their fleets toward zero-emission goals. The company emphasizes that the unit not only meets but exceeds stringent environmental regulations being enacted in regions like North America and Europe, helping operators avoid penalties and gain a competitive edge.

Industry analysts highlight that this launch arrives at a critical time, as pressure mounts on transportation companies to improve their environmental footprint. Corunclima’s high-capacity electric APU is poised to become a key enabling technology, bridging the gap between current operational realities and a cleaner, more sustainable future for road freight. Its adoption promises immediate benefits in cost reduction and compliance, while aligning with broader global efforts to combat climate change.
