Carrus Mobility builds fully-electric, AI-powered refrigeration containers that eliminate diesel dependency, cut operating costs by 10×, and generate carbon credits — built for India's logistics reality.
The Crisis
Nearly half of all perishable food produced in India never reaches a consumer. The infrastructure that exists runs on diesel, operates blind, and fails unpredictably — costing farmers, logistics operators, and the economy billions every year.
How We Solve It →35–45% of perishables lost before reaching market. Farmers receive only 10–30% of final consumer price due to quality degradation.
Diesel TRUs consume 11,000–12,000 litres per truck per year, generating 60–70 MMT of CO₂ annually across India's cold chain fleet.
Cold chain inefficiencies drive 25–40% price inflation passed to consumers, while 15–20% of retail-level products are lost to quality degradation.
₹200–270/hour fuel costs with no remote visibility, no predictive maintenance, and frequent breakdowns eroding already thin logistics margins.
The Carrus Stack
We replace a reactive, diesel-dependent system with an integrated hardware + software stack that prevents loss before it happens.
Traditional Cold Chain
Carrus Mobility
Battery-solar powered, precision climate containers. Designed for transport, storage & off-grid operations. Stable at 55–60°C ambient. Multi-modal: truck, rail, stationary.
Cloud-based monitoring, analytics & remote control. Live dashboards, alerts & performance insights. Built for fleet operators and logistics managers.
Adaptive cooling, failure prediction & spoilage prevention. Continuous optimisation of energy and product quality with event-compliant immutable logging.
The Carrus TEU
Fully electric. Near zero-waste. Low operational expenses. Built and designed in India for India's logistics reality.
Runs on solar and batteries, cutting costs by $12K–$13K annually. Running cost as low as ₹5–20/hour versus ₹200–270/hour for diesel TRUs. No fuel price volatility. No idling losses.
AI-assisted precise temperature control ensures goods stay fresh, always. Real-time humidity and ethylene sensing. From 45–50% wastage to near-zero loss across the entire cold chain journey.
AI + IoT enabled with low maintenance delivering 99.9% uptime. No unexpected breakdowns. Predictive maintenance catches failures before they occur. Fleet visibility from anywhere.
28–30 carbon credits annually per unit — equivalent to offsetting 1,400+ trees worth of emissions. ESG-compliant. 100% diesel-free. Break-even per container in under 24 months.
Intellectual Property
Carrus holds proprietary IP across four core technology domains — building a defensible competitive position in India's emerging deep-tech cold chain space.
Multi-source power management with intelligent prioritization, battery-centric architecture, and multimodal off-grid readiness.
Closed-loop climate control with adaptive regulation ensuring stable internal conditions, designed specifically for perishable-grade operations.
Controlled biological processes with continuous support operations, enabling a mobile cultivation and life-science ready platform beyond standard reefer use.
Real-time health monitoring with remote fleet visibility, compliance event logging, and a predictive data layer for proactive fleet intelligence.
