With the world moving towards an electrified future, the thermal management system the allows the electronics and the batteries to run at optimal temperatures becomes more and more important. This is the challenge the world is facing and Scania is taking it on to become a leader in electrified and sustainable transport.

The thermal management system has a very central and important role in the future of sustainable transport. It’s one of the main pillars that makes electrification possible by improving the performance, range and charging in a cost and weight sensitive environment.

 

The Product

The thermal management system for an electrified truck is managing the temperature of the power electronics used for electrical solutions for the truck, It’s managing the batteries temperature, the climate of the driver’s cab, the electric powertrain and many more subsystems. For a non-electric truck it’s instead managing the combustion engine.
