ENow Demonstrates Solar-Electric Reefer
Developed in 2017, the solar-electric powered refrigeration system – branded Rayfrigeration – was a zero-emissions, Transport Refrigeration Unit (TRU) on a truck making deliveries in an urban environment.
Unveiled in 2018 at the ACT Expo in Long Beach, Calif., eNow brought its all-electric, solar-based refrigeration system to The Work Truck Show 2020 in Indianapolis.
Developed in 2017, the solar-electric powered refrigeration system – branded Rayfrigeration – was a zero-emissions transport refrigeration unit (TRU) on a truck making deliveries in an urban environment. A 24-foot, straight truck owned by Challenge Dairy was beta tested during the heat of the summer in California’s San Joaquin Valley. ENow’s system exceeded all expectations – in both emissions reduction and operating cost savings.
Check out a video of Challenge Dairy’s experience below:
Now developed for 53-foot trailers, eNow showcased the system at the Work Truck Show.
eNow solar eTRUs:
- Use 100% renewable, silent, solar energy to power the electric reefer by day.
- Plug into shore power to quietly recharge the system at night.
- Require less maintenance than diesel counterparts.
- Have 3-5 years longer asset life.
- Are compatible with new reefer trailers of all makes.

Fleet management activities are shown in the following graph 1:
Graph 1: fleet management activities
The proposal audit analyses and assesses all fleet management activities shown in the graph 1, and its main goals are:
- Know the overall status of the fleet management activities
- Provide the analysis, the assessment, the advice, the suggestions and the actions to take in order to cut costs and increase the efficiency and efficacy of the fleet management activities
With the information obtained, we’ll elaborate a report that holds the overall status of the fleet management as well as the suggestions, recommendations and the measures to take in order to cut costs and optimize the fleet management activities.
