2015-03-27 Idleair Press Release at MATS 2015 IdleAir 2567 Prime Way, Suite 101 Knoxville, TN 37918 (865) 232-1700 NEWS RELEASE For immediate release March 27, 2015 Contact: Jeff Maurer, (865) 232-1700 IdleAir Press Release at the 2015 Mid-America Trucking Show LOUISVILLE, KY: Convoy Solutions, LLC celebrated its fifth anniversary operating as IdleAir since February 2010. Since resuscitating IdleAir from the ashes of a formerly terminated business, we have realized a number of milestones: IdleAir preserved a proprietary remotely managed “virtual motel” network with over 1,000 active rooms and more than 6,000 parking spaces of intact expansion capacity. The durable high voltage infrastructure we rescued had an original cost of more than $150mm and in many cases has significantly exceeded its design life with very few mechanical challenges. Since 2011 we have doubled our footprint of locations to more than 40 truckstops and fleet terminals. This month we opened the Latta, SC Flying J, which is our second solar-PV powered truckstop. We’ve also just completed construction of our first of several planned dedicated IdleAir terminals with Covenant Transport at their Headquarters and national training facility in Chattanooga, TN. IdleAir broke ground this week in Nuevo Laredo, Mexico with our first-ever operation outside of the USA with EGOBA Transportadora. We are proud to be exporting our home grown American fuel saving, carbon mitigating technology to customers anywhere in the world that IdleAir can be most impactful and profitable. We successfully launched discount pricing bundles this past year, like the now popular “40 hour Reset Special” and our 10-hour “ConvoyTV+Power™ Special”. Both these bundles cost as little as $1.25/hour while providing core offerings that include 120v power and DirecTV. Owners of bunkheaters and APUs have become repeat users of these bundles as tools for extending the operating life of their onboard investments while enjoying the peace and quiet of the IdleAir grid and in-cab Ethernet. We are also launching an expanded, overnight 12 hour discount bundled offering just for OOIDA members. This Premium HVAC service package costs $23 and includes high speed broadband (access where available) and 50 Convoy Points. With this bundle, OOIDA members will receive a 22% discount off of IdleAir’s standard retail prices. This past Winter IdleAir absorbed most of the assets and operations of the former American Idle Reduction (AIR) and we’re currently working to modify their core locations to be IdleAir enabled for handling IdleAir member card and fleet-card traffic for our 45,000+ professional driver customers. Technological Developments MediDock As part of our acquisition of AIR we are fortunate to have the MediDock anti-idling ambulance team and their proprietary pedestal technology among our portfolio of (865) 232-1700 IdleAir.com Facebook.com/IdleAir Twitter.com/IdleAir offerings. We see interesting under-penetrated idle-mitigation opportunities in the ambulance industry that parallel aspects of the trucking industry. Convoy Solutions strives to analyze driver behavior in order to maximize utilization of idle reduction technologies which save fuel and improve the health, safety, and comfort of drivers. Motorized Hose Lift We are finishing Beta tests of a motorized lift for our service modules and hoses. This lift will make it easier for drivers to insert and remove our standard window units, which weigh over 50 lbs. without the lift. Deployment of the lift assembly will also reduce maintenance costs and allow IdleAir to install electrified parking spaces in pull-thru locations which should broaden the range of parking locations we can operate on. $.99 ConvoyPower Service at Fleet Terminals All fleet terminal installations include the ConvoyPower service option of straight 120v power inside and outside of trucks. We expect to roll out “power-only” modules at select truckstop locations in Fall 2015. Mobile Customer Signup Tablet Our Technology Department is completing Beta tests of a mobile tablet unit. This handheld device will allow our truckstop staff to sign up customers, trouble-shoot hardware issues, and perform customer account maintenance outside of the IdleAir office. This capability is going to become increasingly critical as we ramp up our experimental parking reservation service at select locations. Broadband Upgrades We continue to monitor telecommunications carriers for the best bandwidth options for drivers. Currently nearly half of all our locations sport at least 10 MB of broadband access with one location already at 100 MB. High speeds combined with Ethernet connections inside our service module are a favorite of gamers and other users of streaming services. EV charging, Renewables, Grid storage IdleAir continues to expand its partnerships with purveyors of complementary technologies in the EV charging and energy storage industries. We finished our second solar-PV equipped site in 1Q 2015 and we have operated one of the first DC Fast Chargers on the NJ Interstate since 2012. Brownfield Paid Parking Opportunities IdleAir is working with municipalities in congested trucking corridors to explore the long term redevelopment of Brownfields and other underutilized properties to create safe TSE-enabled paid parking opportunities. Over the last 10 years, IdleAir and its predecessors have saved the trucking industry over 50 million gallons of diesel waste while mitigating 500,000 tonnes of CO2. About IdleAir IdleAir, a division of Convoy Solutions LLC, is the largest provider of Truck Stop Electrification (TSE) services at major travel centers, including Pilot Flying J, Love’s, Sapp Brothers, and select TravelCenters of America and Petro franchisee locations. IdleAir currently operates more than 30 travel center locations in 17 states, plus dedicated fleet terminal installations. IdleAir enables truck drivers to eliminate engine idling or running APUs while enjoying air conditioning, heating, 120V electricity, high-speed Internet, and DirecTV. At less than half the cost of idling, IdleAir helps truck drivers sleep better and save money while reducing emissions. IdleAir supports American energy independence by using homegrown electric power from domestic energy resources. # # # (865) 232-1700 IdleAir.com Facebook.com/IdleAir Twitter.com/IdleAir .

  • Trucking Industry Comprehensive Analysis of CSA Scores - April 2013
    North America Equity Research 15 May 2013 Trucking Industry Comprehensive Analysis of CSA Scores - April 2013 In this report, we analyze the CSA results for the major truckload, LTL, Airfreight and Surface small package, and drayage carriers operating in the US through the April Transportation 26, 2013 data point. Timing of the data releases can vary, but the CSA Thomas R. Wadewitz AC data is generally reported on a monthly basis and we now have 30 data (1-212) 622-6461 points for these carriers (November 2010 through April 2013). [email protected] Michael R. Weinz, CFA April CSA scores are available. The FMCSA released a snapshot of (1-212) 622-6383 the CSA scores as of April 26, 2013. Please see pages 7 to 13 of this [email protected] report, where we summarize and compare the CSA results among the Alexander K. Johnson major trucking providers. The remainder of this report shows the (1-212) 622-6513 historical performance of 39 major transportation providers. We believe [email protected] that the CSA data provides perspective on carrier safety performance J.P. Morgan Securities LLC and the data provide an indication of which carriers face relatively greater regulatory pressures. In our view, the CSA safety management Bloomberg: JPMA WADEWITZ<GO> system is likely to result in a modest reduction in the available driver pool as unsafe drivers are filtered out of the market. We note that carriers with poor CSA scores may face greater challenges in maintaining / attracting drivers. Several large truckload carriers have good CSA scores.

  • 2016Annual Report
    2016 ANNUAL REPORT REACHING NEW HEIGHTS Trucking industry professionals are part of our communities – as fathers, mothers, friends, and neighbors – in every city and town from coast to coast. We not only contribute to the economy and help make everyday life possible, but all seven million of us are part of the fabric of this country, like so many other hardworking Americans in other industries. That’s the message Trucking Moves America Forward works to send every day. And here, in our second annual report, we are honored to say that it has been yet another year of steadily – and successfully – working toward the goal of sending that message. 2016 was a year for recognition. There are many milestones we reached over the past year, which you’ll read about in this report. And these accomplishments are getting noticed far beyond our core membership. In fact, in August, PR News named TMAF a finalist for its top honor, the 2016 Platinum PR Award in the branding category, where it was recognized among global corporate and consumer brands. It was also a year of expansion. We took to new heights – literally – and put industry messages on outdoor billboards along major trucking corridors on interstate highways. From putting more of our TMAF-branded – and newly designed – trailer wraps on the road, to growing our donor and subscriber bases, 2016 saw TMAF chart new territory in everything that we do. This includes social media, one of our keenest outreach tools, where our Facebook page reached 10,000 likes, new videos continued a steady stream of views on YouTube, and we established new properties on Instagram, LinkedIn, and Medium.
