A CARRIER Transicold customer in the UK has shared the results of a multi-year refrigerant performance evaluation, demonstrating that a combination of R-452A refrigerant and Carrier’s all-electric E-Drive technology delivered close to a 50% reduction in carbon emissions from its units.
The evaluation was based on refrigerant use and leakage across the customer’s fleet of more than 2,000 Vector trailer refrigeration units and engineless Iceland and Syberia systems. Over four years, approximately 1,118 tonnes of carbon dioxide (CO2) emissions were saved.
