Boluda Maritime Terminals Tenerife Orders Konecranes Hybrid RTGs in the Canary Islands

Konecranes customer Boluda Maritime Terminals Tenerife has placed an order for 4 hybrid Konecranes Rubber-Tired Gantry (RTG) cranes equipped with many Smart Features. The contract was signed in December 2024.

Boluda Maritime Terminals Tenerife (Boluda) is an independent port operator providing container handling and logistics services at the Port of Tenerife, a strategic hub in the Canary Islands for trade between Africa, the Americas and Europe.

The company opted for hybrid Konecranes RTGs after reviewing fuel consumption calculations and comparisons that demonstrated the fuel efficiency and eco-efficiency of Konecranes hybrid drives.

“Konecranes hybrid drive technology provides the perfect balance of performance and environmental responsibility. The Smart Features also contribute to more efficient container handling and enhanced safety,” said Gonzalo Calero Gómez, CEO of Boluda Maritime Terminals.

The new cranes will join 2 Konecranes RTGs. The long-term reliability of these existing RTGs, delivered in 2007, reinforced Boluda’s confidence both in the durability of Konecranes technology and how it keeps improving. Evidence of this is seen In the Smart Features that will come with the new cranes: Auto-Steering, Auto-TOS Positioning, Auto-Positioning, Stack Collision Prevention and Truck Lift Prevention.

This contract is part of  Ecolifting, Konecranes’ vision to increase its handprint – meaning the beneficial environmental impact that can be achieved with our product and service portfolio – while reducing customers’ carbon footprints. From eco-optimizing diesel drives, to hybridization and fully-electrified fleets, we will continue to do more with less.
