Syama Prasad Mookerjee Port (SMP), Kolkata commissioned its first two electric-powered Mobile Harbour Cranes (MHCs) at the Netaji Subhas Dock, marking a shift from traditional fossil fuel-powered cargo handling equipment.
Deployed by Adani Ports and Special Economic Zone (APSEZ), the new MHCs represent SMP Kolkata’s initial transition to cleaner, energy-efficient technology in port logistics. With this addition, the total number of MHCs at the Kolkata Dock System has increased to six.
