For over-the-road drivers, a comfortable bunk, a warm engine, and access to a computer or TV aren't luxuries; they are necessities that contribute directly to their comfort and safety.
Discretionary truck idling is the common solution for generating the energy required to meet these needs. But the price tag—in terms of higher costs, noise, and engine emissions—is steep, and getting steeper.
The Idle Free Electric APU offers a flexible, cost-effective alternative to discretionary idling. It is a system designed to address the practical, on-the-road needs of over-the-road drivers and fleet operators—from keeping bunks livable in any climate to meeting more stringent environmental regulations.
The Idle Free Electric APU is The Complete Electric APU Solution™ for over-the-road drivers. This system meets all the HVAC and hotel needs of sleeper truck drivers, including year-round climate control and access to 120 volt electricity, but without the cost of discretionary truck idling.
I wonder if this would be a solution for an MCI tour bus?
