New hybrid straddle carriers to boost #APMT Barcelona handling operations A.P. Moller - Maersk owned #port and terminal operator APM Terminals #Barcelona announced the commissioning of 17 Konecranes NSC 644 EHY hybrid straddle #carriers. These models use up to 32.5% less fuel than even today’s most modern cranes and will reduce the terminal's annual CO2 emissions by 50 tonnes, according to APM Terminals. Managing Director of APM Terminals Spanish #Gateways, Julián Fernández, highlighted the importance of this 21.4 million euro investment, saying, “it is the materialisation of the beginning of our path towards the electrification of our equipment, in line with our global objective of reducing our emissions by 70% by 2030, and to achieve net zero by 2040". In alignment with APM Terminals' net zero 2040 goals, APM Terminals Barcelona is already meeting 7.5% of its energy needs through solar panels and will soon achieve its goal of emission neutrality, with the launch of a major electrification pilot project that will test five electric straddle carriers, the first in the Mediterranean.

VOLTEMPO Group Wins Best Commercial Vehicle Decarbonisation Strategy or Project for eFREIGHT 2030! Last night at the Transport + Energy Awards 2024, the spotlight shone brightly on the eFREIGHT 2030 consortium, led by the Voltempo Group, as we proudly accepted this prestigious award shared with all our consortium members! Held at Warwick Conferences and hosted by automotive industry legend, Quentin Willson, the event was a true celebration of innovation and progress in the transport and energy sectors – we were in very good company! On presenting the award, for Best Commercial Vehicle Decarbonisation Strategy or Project, to Voltempo, for eFREIGHT 2030, the judges said: “Electrifying freight is a monumental challenge, not least because of the infrastructure requirements but also because of how difficult it is to get the vehicle technology together and to make the business case. To assemble such a big consortium of heavy vehicle operators and galvanise them into action is truly impressive”. Michael Boxwell, CEO Voltempo Group said: “Winning this award at the Transport + Energy Awards is a testament to the hard work, passion, and vision of the eFREIGHT 2030 consortium to accelerate commercial vehicle decarbonisation through innovation and collaboration. Our project unites some of the UK’s leading logistics providers, retailers, fleet operators, and SMEs, all committed to leading the way in decarbonising their operations. "This award shines a light on our mission to demonstrate the business case for eHGVs and establish a network of 1MW eHGV charging hubs across the UK. By working collaboratively to resolve issues, together we will revolutionise the transport sector for all.” Kuehne+Nagel, Maritime Transport Ltd, Menzies Distribution, Welch Group, Wincanton, Marks and Spencer, DAF Trucks UK, Renault Trucks UK, Scania UK, DYNAMON, VOLTEMPO, Fleete Group, Energy Systems Catapult, Berkeley Sportscars, Tarmac, and Expect Distribution Ltd . #AwardWinning #Decarbonisation #Sustainability #TransportAndEnergy #eFREIGHT2030 #Innovation #VoltempoGroup
