Kalmar’s electric and hybrid straddle carriers to play role in
cutting emissions at ECT Delta terminal in Rotterdam
CARGOTEC CORPORATION, PRESS RELEASE, 21 FEBRUARY 2024 AT 10
(EET)Kalmar, part of Cargotec, has concluded an agreement to supply
Hutchison Ports ECT Rotterdam with two fully electric and eight
hybrid straddle carriers for its ECT Delta terminal. The
significant order was booked in Cargotec's 2024 Q1 order intake,
with delivery expected to be completed during Q4 2024.
Hutchison Ports ECT Rotterdam (ECT) operates two container
terminals both located on the North Sea coast of Rotterdam and
capable of handling the latest generation of ultra-large container
vessels without any restrictions. The ECT Delta uses its fleet of
straddle carriers for loading and unloading trucks on the land
side. The terminal already operates a number of Kalmar straddle
carriers.
The new straddle carriers are part of a fleet renewal programme
that will support the goal of ECT to achieve emission-free
operations at its ECT Delta and ECT Euromax terminals by 2035. ECT
will be piloting two different battery technologies in the electric
straddle carriers.
The order also includes Kalmar Insight coverage for all the
machines – a performance management tool that turns data into
actionable, impactful insights. For electrically powered machines,
the Kalmar Insight Energy Module provides visibility over the
battery charge status, energy utilisation and key performance
indicators related to charging.
Karri Keskinen, Head of Global Sales, Horizontal
Transportation, Kalmar: “We are delighted to continue our
collaboration with ECT and support their transition to more
sustainable operations with our eco-efficient straddle carrier
technology. Our flexible battery technology offering allows
customers to select the option that best fits their operational
needs instead of settling for a one-size-fits-all solution when
electrifying their equipment fleets. This third order for our fully
electric straddle carrier demonstrates the strong market confidence
in our eco-efficient solution.” Further information for the
