This makes SeaCube the first major container leasing company to use these advanced, energy-efficient systems. Carrier Transicold is part of Carrier Global Corporation (NYSE: CARR), a leader in climate and energy solutions.
Bob Sappio, CEO of SeaCube, explained, “With the increasing need for sustainability and rising costs, we needed a reefer solution that could adapt to changing demands. OptimaLINE was the ideal choice. It improves fuel efficiency, supports sustainable operations, and helps reduce costs for our customers.”
The OptimaLINE units include a variable speed compressor with a permanent magnet motor and a variable frequency drive. These features are designed to optimize energy use, improve reliability, and lower operating costs. They also provide more precise temperature control, which helps reduce customers’ carbon footprints and offers greater reliability.
Key features of OptimaLINE include:
- High energy efficiency at all operating conditions with strong performance and reliability.
- Up to 15% lower annual energy costs compared to other systems.
- Up to 40% reduction in carbon dioxide (CO2) emissions compared to previous Carrier models.
Vineet Kashyap, Vice President & General Manager of Global Container Refrigeration at Carrier Transicold, said, “We’re thrilled that SeaCube is using the next-generation OptimaLINE reefer containers. This design significantly improves efficiency, reliability, and performance for SeaCube and their customers.”
