Case Study
Hybrid Rubber Tired Gantry Cranes
Corvus Energy and integrators CCCC Shanghai Equipment Engineering have completed several retrofits of diesel Rubber Tired Gantry (RTG) cranes into diesel and LNG-battery hybrid RTGs. RTGs are used at container terminals and container storage yards to straddle multiple lanes of rail/road and container storage. RTGs typically rely on a constant speed diesel generator for power generation. By hybridizing an RTG, fuel consumption can be reduced
