卡尔玛新闻摘要，2016年3月9日
卡尔玛赢得位于意大利瓦多市APM新建的集装箱码头订单，提供19台混合动力穿梭机。设备将于2017年交付。
卡尔玛HSH240混合动力穿梭机将通过水路和陆路双向运营帮助APM码头实现最优化生产力。设备设计包括一个先进的再生能源系统，能将设备刹车和吊具下降时的能源通过新型创新的电池科技转化为电能储存。
APM码头总经理Carlo Merli表示：“对APM来说，无论是运营还是设备选择，我们都优先考虑对环境的可持续发展性和运营的最大生产力。卡尔玛混合动力穿梭机提高了动能，与传统穿梭机相比，每单位能减少约30%的燃油消耗，同时能减少约50吨二氧化碳的排放。”
Kalmar, part of Cargotec, has received an order for 19 hybrid shuttle carriers from APM Terminals for their newest container terminal that is under construction in Vado, Italy. The machines will be delivered during 2017.
APM Terminals' deepwater Vado container terminal will be the world's first container terminal to employ an entirely hybrid shuttle carrier fleet. The Kalmar HSH240 hybrid shuttle carriers will help APM Terminals to optimise the productivity of their terminal by decoupling waterside and landside operations. The hybrid machines have been designed with an advanced regenerative energy system that converts energy from operational braking and lowering of the spreader into electric power which is then captured and stored through new and innovative battery technology. An automated computer-assisted power system determines the most efficient balance between the diesel engine and battery power.
Carlo Merli, Managing Director of APM Terminals Vado, says: "Environmental sustainability and optimised productivity are priorities for both operations and equipment selection in APM Terminals Vado. The enhanced hybrid power enabled by the Kalmar's shuttle carriers will result in an estimated 30% reduction in fuel consumption, as well as a reduction of an estimated 50 tons of CO2 annually per unit, compared with conventional diesel/electric-powered shuttle carriers."
The Port of Vado is located in northwestern Italy, near the major Italian commercial and population center of Genoa. The facility is scheduled to become operational in January 2018 with the ability to handle 18,000 TEU vessels.
