Secures Order for 17 Rubber Tired Gantry Cranes from Y3 Berth, Port of Tokyo
MITSUI E&S Co., Ltd. (Headquarters: Chuo-ku, Tokyo; President and CEO: Takeyuki Takahashi; hereinafter, “MITSUI E&S”) is pleased to announce that we have received an order from Tokyo Port Terminal Corporation (Headquarters: Koto-ku, Tokyo; President and CEO: Hidetoshi Maruyama), the company managing and operating container terminals in Port of Tokyo, for seventeen (17) environmentally-friendly Electric Rubber Tyred Gantry Cranes (MITSUI-PACECO Transtainer®) for Y3 Berth, Outer Central Breakwater Container Terminal, Port of Tokyo (hereinafter, “Y3” .)
Y3, which is currently under development, will be a container terminal with a water depth of 16 meters, a quay length of 400 meters, and a yard depth of 500 meters, and will be designed to accommodate large container vessels of up to 150,000 DWT (approximately 14,000 containers). These cranes are scheduled to be delivered to the site by the end of March 2028.
These cranes are environmentally-friendly models powered by electricity supplied from the electrical bus-bar installed along the container lane. Unlike conventional cranes equipped with diesel engine generator sets, these cranes do not emit carbon dioxide during cargo handling operations, thereby helping to accelerate the decarbonization of port operations.
In addition, the cranes can be operated from a remote operation console installed in the administration building, rather than from the operator’s cabins, with due consideration given to improving the operator’s working environment.
We believe that the introduction of these cranes will make a great contribution to the decarbonization of the entire Port of Tokyo, the enhancement of its cargo handling capacity, and the promotion of digital transformation.
As a pioneer in port crane manufacturing, MITSUI E&S will continue to enhance the value of our cranes from the perspectives of sustainability and digitalization, and remain committed to contributing to the advancement of port logistics by providing cranes that help address both customer needs and social challenges.
