Kalmar Hybrid Straddle Carriers to Help Med Europe Terminal Improve Environmental Performance

Kalmar, part of Cargotec, has signed an agreement with Med Europe Terminal to supply 6 Kalmar hybrid straddle carriers. The order was booked in Cargotec's Q1 2024 order intake. The machines are scheduled to be delivered during Q4 of 2024.

The terminal, which is located in the Port of Marseille on France’s south coast, already operates a fleet of Kalmar diesel-electric straddle carriers. The new hybrid straddle carriers are part of a fleet renewal programme aimed at improving the terminal’s environmental performance.

“We are constantly striving to improve our environmental performance, and Kalmar’s proven hybrid solution will help us take big steps forward in this area. We are looking forward to welcoming the new hybrid straddle carriers to our fleet at the end of the year and to continuing our long-standing partnership with Kalmar,” said Sylvain Pelligrini, Technical, Procurement, IT & Claims director, Med Europe Terminal.

“We are delighted to support Med Europe Terminal as they move towards more eco-efficient operations. Our proven hybrid solution continues to be an extremely popular choice among leading terminal operators around the world,” added Herve Helluin, Service Operations manager, Kalmar.

Kalmar is the global leader in sustainable cargo handling for ports, terminals, distribution centres and heavy industry. With its extensive electric portfolio and global service network, the company helps our customers move towards safer, more eco-efficient and productive operations.
