Sany targets European ports for its electrically powered machinery

22 Feb 2023 CW Team

There are already 100 Sany empty container handlers and 40 Sany reach stackers with electric drives in service in China and South East Asia. Jürgen Keller, Product Manager, Sany Europe, believes electric equipment will play a big role in the EU's ambitious aim of reducing greenhouse gas emissions by at least 55% by 2030. “Many clients are aware that in order to considerably cut CO 2 emissions across their fleet by 2030 and meet EU standards for reduced emissions, they must adapt their machinery acquisitions soon. In the upcoming six to twelve months, I anticipate more debates about this at the customer level,” said Keller.

Sany is aware that recharging is one of the most significant obstacles that electrically powered machinery must overcome. It is obvious that operators aim to maximise their operating time. Sany advises using clever charging techniques, such as installing charging stations in the canteen area so that the batteries can be recharged there while the operator takes a coffee break.

Sany provides a hybrid reach stacker in addition to machinery that is entirely electrically powered. Its two driving types a combustion engine and a straightforward hydro-pneumatic drive help to cut emissions by 20%. Using biofuels is another choice. Every Sany mobile port equipment with a Stage V engine can operate on both biofuels and regular fuels.
