PSA Halifax has signed an agreement with the Finnish port equipment manufacturer Konecranes for eight new electric Rubber Tyred Gantry cranes (E-RTGs) for its Atlantic Hub terminal. The new E-RTGs will transform the Atlantic Hub into an all-electric RTG operating facility when they arrive in Q2 2024, increasing the Atlantic Hub Terminal’s total RTG fleet from nine to 17. According to PSA Halifax, this purchase will expand the terminal’s handling capacity by 25% and is part of PSA’s efforts to electrify its equipment, which will help the company meet its sustainability and decarbonization targets.
