CoolCab: Reducing Thermal Loads in Long-Haul Trucks (Fact Sheet)

Research output: NRELFact Sheet

Abstract

This fact sheet describes how the National Renewable Energy Laboratory's CoolCab project tested and modeled the effects of several thermal-load reduction strategies applied to long-haul truck cabs. NREL partnered with two major truck manufacturers to evaluate three long-haul trucks at NREL's outdoor test facility in Golden, Colorado.
