Electric Barcelona

The government of Spain has awarded APM Terminals (APMT) Barcelona €3.9 million (US$4.3 million) to help finance an electrification pilot project. It includes purchasing five zero-emission electric straddle carriers, four charging stations, civil and electrical works, an IT network, plus all required technology necessary for equipment operations and recharging activities. All electricity required by the terminal already comes from renewable sources under a deal running to 2032.
