Port Newark Container Terminal orders 20 Hybrid Konecranes Noell Straddle Carriers

Port Newark Container Terminal (PNCT) in New Jersey has ordered 20 Hybrid Konecranes Noell Straddle Carriers equipped with eco-efficient hybrid drives. The order was booked in Q4 2025 and the cranes will be delivered in Q4 2026.

PNCT is one of the largest container terminals on the US East Coast. Its entire straddle carrier fleet is made up of Konecranes Noell straddle carriers.

Each of the 20 new straddle carriers features Konecranes hybrid-drive technology, combining a diesel genset with a rechargeable battery. This delivers the proven performance of Konecranes Noell straddle carriers, with less diesel consumption and lower emissions. The new machines will be used for ship-to-shore container operations at the quayside, stacking activities and the loading and unloading of trucks and rail wagons.

Reflecting the close ties with PNCT, Konecranes operates a major service location including a comprehensively equipped warehouse of spare parts near Port Newark so it can better support PNCT's operations. PNCT also uses Konecranes Rubber-Tired Gantry Cranes, as well as Konecranes reach stackers.

“This is a significant repeat order from a major US customer that knows our straddle carrier technology inside out. We very much value both PNCT’s trust in our hybrid-drive technology and our long partnership. This order shows how well this equipment performs in demanding terminal environments like here in New Jersey,” says Peter Kania, sales director, Port Solutions, Konecranes.
