Energy efficiency specialist Ndustrial has launched Nsight Fleet, “a comprehensive platform for managing industrial-scale transport electrification infrastructure.”

Nsight Fleet enables third-party logistics (3PL) sites to provide power for refrigerated trailers from multiple carriers and suppliers. By switching from diesel-powered Transport Refrigeration Units (TRUs) to eTRUs, refrigerated fleets can reduce their on-site emissions and fuel costs by 30%, according to the company.

Nsight Fleet is built on the Nsight Energy Intensity Platform, an energy management system for industrial facilities.

The company says many eTRU shore power projects can be completed without exceeding existing utility service capacity. Ndustrial is already deploying eTRU infrastructure for a major client in the US.

“Refrigerated transport is an essential part of global supply chains, keeping everything from fresh produce to vital medical supplies safe and viable,” said Ndustrial VP of Supply Chain Electrification Manuel Aguirre. “With Ndustrial’s fleet electrification solutions, companies across the cold supply chain can meaningfully cut costs and emissions without incurring any up-front cost.”

The software is designed to augment existing processes rather than replace them, delivering greater efficiency without a large solutions upgrade.

“We never want to make someone add another step,” said Ndustrial CEO Jason Massey. “So we started by understanding each existing process and built our solution to align to those.”

Ndustrial can also design, install and manage fleet electrification infrastructure. The company offers an Energy-as-a-Service option.
