PACECO lands automated crane contract

Terminal operators in LA and Long Beach face challenges in meeting the 2030 zero-emissions goal, with slow progress on replacing diesel-powered equipment.

Mitsui E&S outlines a further step in its plan to start “final assembly” of container cranes in the US.

One port operator claims the “pending tariff decision halted our procurement process”, while another says it has explored the possibility of cancelling crane contracts.

The “world’s first hydrogen fuel cell-powered rubber-tyred gantry” could be a better zero-emissions option for terminal operators at the ports of Los Angeles and Long Beach than ERTGs.

TraPac Oakland terminal debuts its first hybrid electric Rubber Tyred Gantry cranes (RTGs).

A 25% tariff will apply to all STS cranes “from China”, including cranes produced by Konecranes, impacting US ports and terminal operators.
