a big transition from diesel-based to electric technologies and as such , we ’ ve worked hard on our truck and trailer portfolio to introduce electrification . We ’ re connecting with our OEMs to ensure that our units are as efficient as possible in the push for electrification . Traditionally , on long-haul journeys , truck companies would need to refuel their refrigeration units , multiple times . With our new axle-power technology , power is created from the drag of the trailer . In effect , it captures the energy as the vehicle goes down the hill or brakes . The energy is stored in the battery and used to charge the refrigeration unit , thereby reducing emissions to a minimum .
“ We ’ ve been testing this technology which will be released to market very soon . It ’ s crucial that we continue to move forward with non-diesel technologies . Equally , we ’ re enhancing our digital operations , as we try to better understand how the units are being used so that we can optimize the amount of energy being used in the system . Digital processes also play an important role in supply chain visibility , enabling greater awareness of load movements . We ’ re also working on alternative technologies to ensure that when the opportunities arise , we can harness the power of the sun to create more energy for our systems . We want to make sure that we ’ re doing everything we can to reduce
