Not sure if such a hybrid setup would be enough to get rid of the ICE-powered reefer unit in a refrigerated trailer, yet AFAIK Thermo King already makes some equipments resorting to a Diesel-powered genset and an electric compressor, instead of an engine-driven compressor. Adding solar panels could eventually make sense to a hybridized refrigerated trailer.

I don't know how it's controlled, but E-Sys is the commercial nomenclature used by the maker of the trailers fitted with that.
