Konecranes bags SFCT contract for delivering 12 electric RTGs

South Florida Container Terminal (SFCT) has ordered a fleet of 12 electric Konecranes Rubber-Tired Gantry (RTG) cranes for their full-service marine terminal at the Port of Miami. The order was booked for delivery in July 2023.

They will be delivered carbon neutral. Carbon emissions from manufacturing are minimized wherever possible, and where not possible emissions are compensated with re-forestation, up to the point of hand-over to the customer.

The 12 new RTGs are powered by electricity for cleaner, economical and efficient operation. The machines will also be fitted with a diesel engine for backup, stack changing and maintenance.
