EBERSPÄCHER WILL PRESENT SUSTAINABLE SOLUTIONS AT BUSWORLD EUROPE 2025
From October 4th to 9th, Eberspaecher will be presenting its new thermal management solutions for buses at Busworld Europe 2025 in Brussels and will be will be exhibiting the AC138 EVO and the AC135 product family, air-conditioning systems for alternative drive technologies that utilize the natural refrigerant propane..
The series production of the AC138 EVO, which is used to air-condition the passenger compartments of city buses, has been underway since mid-2025. The all-electric platform, which uses CO2 as a refrigerant and features patented heat pump technology, boasts a simplified air circuit and a built-in energy recovery system. This enables it to achieve high energy efficiency while reducing weight.

The new Hydro Control System (HCS), which is designed for centralized control of all thermal processes in the bus, will also be presented by Eberspaecher. In particular, the temperature of components such as the high-voltage battery and the engine-transmission combination must be kept within a certain range that optimizes efficiency.
The reliable E-Control module is the central operating element for all the bus’s thermal management components and allows the AC135 and AC138 EVO systems to be easily integrated into the e-connected digital service platform.
A gateway in the vehicle transmits operating data to the cloud in real time, providing the foundation for a variety of data-based functions. The over-the-air updates are particularly noteworthy: Software updates can be carried out quickly and easily over a wireless connection, eliminating the need for a visit to the workshop.
