Hamburger Hafen und Logistik (HHLA) has renewed its straddle carrier fleet at the Container Terminal Tollerort (CCT).
Eight new units have started operating with hybrid drive: the straddle carrier stores surplus energy in a high-performance lithium-ion battery, which saves over 30% of fuel per operating hour compared to diesel-electric previous models.
This new way of transhipping containers in a more environmentally friendly way between ship, yard, rail terminal and truck gate saves 200,000 litres of diesel and 530 t of CO2 emissions per year. (lh)
