Reefer Flow Electrification in Multimodal Transport

Quelle: https://www.porttechnology.org/news/multimodal-electrification-of-reefer-containers/

Reefer Flow Electrification in Multimodal Transport refers to the continuous use of electrical energy to power refrigerated (reefer) containers across multiple transport modes (road, rail, sea) without relying on diesel generators. It encompasses shore-to-ship power connections at ports and terminals, electrified rail and terminal handling equipment, and electric road transport to reduce greenhouse gas emissions and enhance energy efficiency.
