The order supports the transition of ECT\u2019s Euromax terminal to fully electric operations and includes 42 lithium-ion Automated Guided Vehicles (AGVs) and advanced charging infrastructure.<\/p>\n
\u201cThis deal underlines two decades of operational success for Konecranes Gottwald AGVs at the ECT Euromax terminal,\u201d said Ralf Konnerth, director automated horizontal transport, Konecranes.<\/p>\n
\u201dKonecranes is ready to further support the terminal\u2019s modernisation journey for the next 20 years, with electrification in full focus.\u201d<\/p>\n
Smooth integration<\/strong><\/p>\n The new AGVs will operate alongside existing diesel-powered units, seamlessly integrating via Konecranes\u2019 TEAMS Equipment Control System.<\/p>\n This smart software coordinates movements between port equipment including AGVs, Ship-to-Shore (STS) cranes and Automated Stacking Cranes (ASC), optimising container handling operations.<\/p>\n The electric crane and AGV fleet is equipped with a battery management system that monitors charging and operational data to ensure battery efficiency and reliability.<\/p>\n Fast-charging stations will further reduce downtime and improve throughput.<\/p>\n Part of Konecranes\u2019 Ecolifting initiative, the project marks a significant step in port emissions reduction, combining automation and sustainability to meet ports\u2019 evolving environmental targets.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Hutchison Ports ECT Rotterdam (ECT) has ordered a new electric Automated Horizontal Transport (AHT) System\u00a0from Konecranes to drive port electrification and emissions reduction.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":8,"featured_media":5508,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[46,22],"tags":[680,117,1835,136,215,637,23,1776],"sponsor":[],"class_list":["post-5507","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-energy-technology-greenport","category-products-services-greenport","tag-agv","tag-automation","tag-electric-port-equipment","tag-hutchison-ports","tag-konecranes","tag-port-electrification","tag-port-equipment","tag-shore-power-electrification"],"acf":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.portstrategy.com\/greenport\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/5507","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.portstrategy.com\/greenport\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.portstrategy.com\/greenport\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.portstrategy.com\/greenport\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/8"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.portstrategy.com\/greenport\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=5507"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/www.portstrategy.com\/greenport\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/5507\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":5509,"href":"https:\/\/www.portstrategy.com\/greenport\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/5507\/revisions\/5509"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.portstrategy.com\/greenport\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/5508"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.portstrategy.com\/greenport\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=5507"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.portstrategy.com\/greenport\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=5507"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.portstrategy.com\/greenport\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=5507"},{"taxonomy":"sponsor","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.portstrategy.com\/greenport\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/sponsor?post=5507"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
