"Heating, cooling, and battery temperature control are among the biggest energy consumers in electric buses today - and thus have a direct impact on range, availability, and operating costs."
"CO₂ (R744) is a natural refrigerant with a global warming potential of 1. It is PFAS-free, non-flammable, and not subject to any foreseeable phase-out regulations."
"Integrated systems combining heating, cooling and battery conditioning can reduce the energy demand associated with climate control functions in electric buses. Coordinated temperature control across vehicle subsystems contributes to maintaining operational availability during daily scheduled service."
Konvekta will showcase CO₂-based thermal management systems designed for electric buses at mobility move 2026. These integrated systems coordinate heating, cooling, and battery temperature control to reduce overall energy demand and maintain operational availability during daily fleet operations. CO₂ (R744) refrigerant offers environmental advantages as a natural refrigerant with global warming potential of 1, PFAS-free composition, non-flammability, and no foreseeable phase-out regulations. The systems optimize ambient and waste heat utilization to minimize energy consumption. Thermal management functions represent major energy consumers in electric buses, directly affecting vehicle range, availability, and operating costs.
