Without building cooling, no modern economic miracle (Singapore, China, Indian IT outsourcing, Silicon Valley without A/C?)
Without refrigeration, no affordable fresh food across long supply chains, no efficient feeding of mass populations but current cooling technology is energy-hungry, inefficient and catastrophic for the planet.
Energy demand for space cooling alone will triple by 2050 – to 6000 terawatt hours.
Trucking contributes 23.8% of all GHG emissions in the US and we are going to need a lot more of it.
In the Global South, which runs largely off diesel generators (and old diesel trucks), cooling is unaffordable for most, leading to horrific levels of food waste (>50%) across Africa and South Asia.
And exposing > 4 billion people to severe economic and health risks from extreme heat.
Zero2Cool’s®️ technology does something about this, delivering cooling free at the point of use from the very power sources responsible for the high cost, high CO2, high energy poverty world of today.
With capacities of between 18 kW and 300 kW, and temperature ranges of 3C to 18C, we deliver cold storage solutions with zero fuel cost and zero CO2. Our chillers can be run off waste heat from any generator, including hydrogen, and also off direct fired heat, or biomass. We are actively working on solar solutions as well, such that our technology can be deployed in almost any situation.
With cooling capacities from 4 kW to 7 kW, designed for refrigeration of trailers up to 40/50’, and temperature ranges from 3-18C, our thermal compressor TRUs run off the engine exhaust gases, providing 100% cost- and CO2-free refrigeration. Back-up power from gas and solar is also provided, making the unit entirely self-contained.
Zero2Cool offers highly efficient, reliable cooling and heating units designed to fit easily into any existing air conditioning system. Both our stand-alone and externally powered models deliver a significant reduction in cooling emissions and energy costs at far higher ambient temperatures than other solutions.
