Related FAQs
🆚 Is an electric APU really better than a diesel APU?
Yes. For modern fleets, it's the smarter, more profitable choice.
While diesel APUs have a long runtime, they come with constant costs. Our electric APUs offer a superior alternative:
| Feature | Our Electric APU | Traditional Diesel APU |
|---|---|---|
| Fuel Cost | ✅ Zero | ❌ Constant diesel consumption |
| Maintenance | ✅ Virtually None | ❌ Regular oil & filter changes |
| Emissions | ✅ Zero (100% Compliant) | ❌ Polluting & regulated |
| Noise Level | ✅ Whisper-Quiet | ❌ Loud & disruptive |
| Weight | ✅ Significantly Lighter | ❌ Heavy & bulky |
❄️ What is an Electric APU?
It's your key to zero-idle comfort, lower costs, and happier drivers.
An Electric APU (Auxiliary Power Unit) is a battery-powered system that runs your truck’s air conditioning, heating, and other onboard electronics without needing to idle the main engine. Our systems use advanced 12V Lithium Iron Phosphate (LiFePO₄) batteries to provide clean, quiet, and reliable power when you're parked.
📜 How do your APUs help with CARB and other state idling regulations?
They make compliance effortless. Turn off your engine, turn on the APU, and you're 100% legal.
Our battery-powered APUs produce zero emissions, making them fully compliant with the strictest anti-idling laws, including those from the California Air Resources Board (CARB) and regulations in states like Illinois, New York, and Texas. With our system, you avoid thousands of dollars in potential fines.
