Van Rijnsbergen case study Solar powered HVAC
Van Rijnsbergen, a transportation company, faced the challenge of maintaining the heating, ventilation, and air-conditioning (HVAC) system operational while the vehicle is parked, without idling the engine.
During break periods, drivers used to keep the engine running for hundreds of hours each year to power the HVAC system. This extended idling period led to high fuel consumption, increased CO₂ emissions, and driver discomfort.
To address this challenge, Van Rijnsbergen opted for the onboard solar technology: SolarOnTop, and achieved remarkable results in just one year:
