Hybrid Shipping Container

A hybrid shipping container is a shipping system that uses the energy of phase-change material (PCM) in combination with the ability to recharge without removing the media. This ability is known as cold-energy battery.^[1]

Currently, this technology is only being used in a limited number of shipping containers.

• SkyCell - high energy protection
• TOWER - very limited energy protection
• Peli BioThermal - high energy protection
• World Courier Cocoon - similar platform to va-Q-tec
• va-Q-tec - high energy protection combined with vacuum panels

A Cold-energy battery works by storing energy to a given temperature and using its thermal mass to maintain this temperature.^{[citation needed]} It can be recharged by being placed in a temperature range applicable to its phase change window.

• Insulated shipping container
• Intermediate bulk container

• Storage Containers
