ICTSI’s Manila International Container Terminal (MICT) has recently taken delivery of eight new Mitsui hybrid rubber tired gantry (RTG) cranes for its container yard to further improve operational efficiency.
The flagship terminal of ICTSI at the Port of Manila has decided to enhance its operating capabilities in light of growing volumes.
The latest acquisition expands MICT’s RTG fleet to 52 units, 40 of which are hybrids powered by a combination of lithium-ion battery and smaller diesel engine.
MICT started using hybrid RTGs in 2018 to reduce the terminal’s carbon footprint as it ramps up efforts to become the most sustainable terminal in the Philippines.
