Cape Town Container Terminal takes Southern Africa's first hybrid straddle carriers
Cape Town Container Terminal took delivery of Southern Africa's first hybrid straddle carriers — the first four units of Transnet's 16-unit Kalmar order.
Cape Town Container Terminal took delivery of Southern Africa's first hybrid straddle carriers — the first four units of Transnet's 16-unit Kalmar order.
Kalmar has signed separate agreements with customers in Inner Mongolia, Tianjin, Shanghai and Hong Kong to supply four electric reachstackers.
Why is this an opportunity for P&M: Four electric reachstackers across Chinese ports — port-vehicle charging attach, though local suppliers dominate the mainland.
Kalmar has secured a six-year framework agreement with the Port of Helsingborg (Sweden) to supply electric reachstackers, covering the potential procurement of up to nine machines. It follows Steinweg's Kalmar electric-reachstacker order reported in the 13 June brief.
Why is this an opportunity for P&M: framework for up to nine electric reachstackers at a Swedish terminal — charging-infrastructure opening for Cavotec.
Terminal logistics operator C. Steinweg has ordered electric reachstackers from Kalmar, adding battery-electric handling equipment to its terminal fleet.
Why is this an opportunity for P&M: electric reachstackers at a terminal operator — depot charging-infrastructure opening for our charging/plug-in line.
Finnish container-terminal operator Finnsteve has taken delivery of Kalmar electric straddle carriers, extending the electrification of its yard-handling fleet.
Why is this an opportunity for P&M: an electric straddle-carrier fleet at a Finnish terminal — charging-infrastructure follow-on for Cavotec's port-vehicle line.
Victoria International Container Terminal (VICT, Melbourne — operated by ICTSI) has commissioned four additional Kalmar hybrid automated straddle carriers.
Why is this an opportunity for P&M: VICT expansion confirms ICTSI's electrified terminal-vehicle pipeline; protect Cavotec charging route via the ICTSI relationship.
Cargotec's Kalmar has delivered hybrid straddle carriers to Port Elizabeth, marking another commissioning of electrified container-handling equipment at a major container hub — and another datapoint on terminal-operator appetite for hybrid yard fleets.
Why is this an opportunity for P&M: hybrid straddle-carrier deployment opens depot-charging follow-on for Cavotec's port-vehicle charging line.
Iquique Terminal Internacional (ITI), part of Hanseatic Global Terminals, has expanded its tractor fleet with three new Kalmar Ottawa terminal tractors at its container terminal in northern Chile.
Why it matters for P&M: Modest fleet capex at a Hanseatic-owned terminal in Chile — signals investment cadence at a customer adjacent to the South-American MoorMaster corridor.
Kalmar (Cargotec) is bringing its battery-electric TT7 terminal tractor to European customers, expanding the addressable footprint of e-tractor charging infrastructure at container and ro-ro terminals. New regional rollout of the e-TT product line.
Why is this an opportunity for P&M: Kalmar's electric TT7 rollout in Europe pulls customer terminals toward e-tractor charging — addressable for Cavotec's plug-in line.
Kalmar has unveiled an upgraded T2i terminal-tractor variant focused on modularity and operator ergonomics, and started Shanghai manufacturing — a notable geographic shift for the line.
Why it matters for P&M: Kalmar is a key OEM partner adjacent to Cavotec's port-vehicle-electrification opportunity. A modular T2i refresh + China-local manufacturing is the kind of platform move that determines whether the next-generation electric/hybrid variant ships with a Cavotec-favoured charging interface or a competitor's.
