Highlights Methods are container handling equipment are compared. CO2 emissions for four different handling technologies are considered. Automatic rail and electric tire transtainers are identified as optimal green cargo handling equipment.
Abstract This study employs a green container terminal perspective to compare the performance of four types of cargo handling equipment used in container yards – automatic rail, rail, electric tire, and tire transtainers – based on working efficiency, energy saving performance, and carbon reductions. It is found that automatic rail and electric tire transtainers are the optimal types of green cargo handling equipment.
