CloseAdvanced Truckstop Electrification Terminal (ATE)
Fort Worth, TX United States | 2006
2006
Truck drivers are required by law to take mandatory breaks. Traditionally, drivers allowed their trucks to idle to supply air conditioning or power to sleeper appliances. Idling trucks are not only expensive and noisy, but also pollute the environment.
Hot-dip galvanized steel has proven to be a cost effective, maintenance-free integral part of the ATE stations.
Advanced Truckstop Electrification Terminals (ATE) allow the driver to turn off the engine and hook up to AC, telephone, electric, and internet. Additionally, the terminals provide a comfortable sleeping environment, and improve fuel efficiency. Using hot-dip galvanized steel on the ATE stations not only meshes with the industrial environment of the truckstops, but also is able to withstand the constant exposure to truck exhaust and weather conditions. Hot-dip galvanized steel has proven to be a cost effective, maintenance-free integral part of the ATE stations.
