These cranes cut emissions and reduce fuel consumption, and their advanced safety and automation features improve our productivity. We’re also leaving the door open to potential retrofitting for hydrogen power,” mentioned Román Davila González, Associate Director, Termavi, Grupo Davila.

The cranes are equipped with the complete range of Konecranes Smart Features including Auto-Steering, Auto-Truck Guiding, Auto-Path Optimization and Auto-Positioning, keeping the RTGs on course and ensuring precise container handling.
