With the new environmental regulations in place, they present a significant pollution hazard for our already crowded cities (a small reefer on an average consumes 1500-3600 liters of diesel per annum).The current reefer technology especially for the growing last mile segment provides a huge opportunity for innovation and new technology introduction. In addition to high fuel costs and frequent breakdowns, these units also do not perform as per the requirement of the application.
With the growing interest in Electric Vehicle and regulation the engine driven Reefer System possess great challenges.The potential alternative that we would focus on is the energy storage based solution using Phase Changing Material popularly known as a Eutectic system.In these systems, the energy is stored in the form of latent heat .For a single full charging of the PlugnChill system you get the refrigeration for 10 to 12 hrs.
