Owners and Fleet Operators

If you're an Owner Operator or Fleet Manager Shorepower TSE means lower fuel costs and reduced maintenance, not to mention: happier, better rested drivers. As you know, drivers of long-haul trucks must take mandatory daily rest periods as required by the U.S. Department of Transportation.  In order to maintain cab comfort, drivers usually run their engines even while parked at truck stops, rest areas, and travel plazas.  This additional idling increases fuel and maintenance costs. By using Shorepower TSE instead of idling, you and your drivers can save you money. Review this Document to see typical savings from using Shorepower.

In simplest terms, you will save over $3.00 per hour by using Shorepower instead of idling. And, unlike buying an APU or generator, Shorepower doesn’t require a large up - front investment, maintenance, or battery replacements. You can equip a cab with basic Shorepower equipment and start saving money for under $200. Of course, installing an electrical AC unit will cost more, but your drivers will also use Shorepower more, saving you additional money. If your truck is already equipped for shore powered electrical devices you can begin using Shorepower TSE for the price of a heavy duty extension cord, available at a Shorepower travel plaza or online by following this link.
