The IM Efficiency Team

Martijn Ildiz
Chief Executive Officer

It’s inspiring to experience the commitment of everyone reshaping the energy system for trucks and trailers. I’m proud to be part of a team that is building that future!

Ruud Derks
Chief Strategy Officier

Embracing solar mobility is not just a technological shift. It's a powerful statement of responsibility, empowerment, and hope for a cleaner, more prosperous world.

In this first year we already see that the SolarOnTop is delivering 60-70% of the energy demand. This Way the alternator is running less hours what also means a higher uptime of our trucks and batteries. This is a big advantage for our customers and employees. Because Heisterkamp can offer all the services a high grade of trust.

Heisterkamp Transport B.V

Chief operating officer.

Every initiative aimed at reducing emissions deserves careful consideration for its feasibility. Thanks to the SolarOnTop solution, we effectively cut our truck's fuel consumption by a percentage that justifies the investment and enables us to make a step towards a greener environment.

Van der Linden Hillegom B.V

Director

Thanks to SolarOnTop, we have a fully functional system that allows the driver to enjoy a cooled break and a good sleep without needing to wake up to start the engine. Even with temperatures above thirty degrees, the air conditioning unit keeps running on solar power. With SolarOnTop, our driver experiences a less stressful workweek, and our diesel fuel consumption has decreased, resulting in lower CO2 emissions.

Anja Van Rijnsbergen, Business Owner

Multitrax vehicles are equipped with IM Efficiency's SolarOnTop system. Solar panels are installed on the roofs of the trailers, allowing energy to be stored in the SolarOnTop lithium battery. Thanks to its advanced management system, this energy is used to operate the Dhollandia hydraulic tailboard without the need for tractor power. As a result, loading and unloading operations are greener and quieter, particularly in urban settings.

Alberto Maggi, Director

We observe an average fuel savings of 4% to 5%. This varies depending on both the use of the tail lift and the number of kilometers driven. An additional advantage is that both the trailer's and the truck's batteries show less wear and tear and need to be replaced less frequently.
