Sustainability Features of Euromax - 1
– At least 60% fewer diesel engines than “traditional” comparable terminal
– High crane productivity – faster vessel turn-around
– Relatively low street truck volumes due to:• Transshipment to/from short-sea vessels• Transshipment to/from river barges• On-dock intermodal rail yard• Dedicated trailer-train road network for transfer of containers to
other terminals or intermodal yards
– In-terminal street truck driving distances are minimized

Economic Features
– High investment cost for:• Container handling equipment• Container handling equipment infrastructure• Computer hardware and software
– High net crane productivity of 35 lifts/hr
– High level of automation reduces personnel cost
– Lower personnel cost offsets the high investment cost
– Cost per vessel lift currently comparable to “traditional” terminal and expected to be lower in the future

Societal Features
– High use of alternate transport (short-sea, barge, rail) reduces truck trips, truck emissions, and congestion
– Safe work environment:• Strict (fenced) separation between
manual and automated functions• Fewer people on terminal reduces
accidents• Street trucks restricted to land-side
of yard cranes and there are virtually no intersections
– Terminal design includes daycare center with outdoor playground

• Supply of 6.6 kV to receptacles placed at 100-foot intervals along the wharf
• Ships equipped with power cables, transformers, and switch gear• Ships have 60 Hz power – problem for countries with 50 Hz

APL Pier 300 Terminal, Los Angeles
On-terminal Intermodal Yards– Trains emit less per ton-
mile than trucks.
– If cargo is destined for rail, on-terminal is better than off-terminal.
– Electric cranes to load and unload trains; common practice in Europe.
– Automated intermodal terminal in conceptual design for Port of Oakland

Yard Tractors
– Existing tractors retro-fitted to reduce emissions
– New equipment:• Cleanest available diesel
engines• LNG/CNG
– Hybrid yard tractor under development
– Electric yard tractor in “thinking” stage

– Automated vehicles are typically linked with end-loaded yard stacks
– Minimizes travel distance– Robots drive more smoothly
than humans– Robot vehicle can be
hybrid-electric with diesel or natural gas engine• Regenerative braking• Engine off during idle

Process/technology-related to minimize turn-time– Gate:
• Extended gate hours• Terminal appointments
Based on gate capacity, andBased on specific yard crane capacity
• Electronic pre-filing of gate transaction data and electronic payment of terminal charges
• Instrumentation in gate allows for non-stop processing
– Yard:• Automated yard inventory – no “lost” boxes• Significant productivity gains from “look ahead” capabilities
Pre-stage containersDon’t stack on top of containers needed next

To be sustainable
– Future terminal design will include:• Wharves that can support the weight of heavier cranes• Use of automated stacking cranes• Use of hybrid or electric container transporters• Extensive use of transfer to on-dock or near-dock rail transport
– Cost of reconfiguring existing facilities is very high – most likely to happen at end of useful life
– In short-term:• Use of more environmentally friendly transporters and yard cranes• Improvements in processes and supporting technologies to reduce
truck processing and yard turn-times and minimize container re-handling activities
