offering to customers, we believe the terminal’s independence and open access can be even better developed under a new and independent ownership. We will continue to be a happy customer of MIRRAT and work with the strong team there,” said Lasse Kristoffersen, president/ CEO, Wallenius Wilhelmsen. “The MIRRAT-team has done a great


job, developing the only dedicated roll- on, roll-off terminal, building a robust and customer-centric operation serving multiple shipping lines.” Wallenius Wilhelmsen remains firm in its commitment to Australia as a critical market for shipping and logistics customers and is continuously looking for opportunities to expand its global integrated logistics offering.


KONECRANES Konecranes has handed over eight hybrid Konecranes Noell Straddle Carriers to Copenhagen Malmö Port (CMP), intended for the new container terminal in Copenhagen. The parts were delivered to CMP in Q4 last year and have been assembled and tested on-site at the current container terminal. Next year, the existing container


terminal will be relocated a few kilometers to a new and better location in Ydre Nordhavn. By & Havn, one of CMP’s owners, is the developer of the container terminal, while CMP is responsible for the equipment and for operating the terminal,


which will play a crucial role in regional development, supplying the growing Copenhagen capital area and the rest of Zealand with goods and commodities and catering to the export needs of businesses in the region. Having reduced fossil CO2 emissions


by 68% since 2020, CMP is well on its way to providing fossil-free container goods handling. “The new straddle carriers represent a significant step toward CMP’s goal to achieve climate neutrality in our operations by 2025. These machines run on fossil- free HVO* 100 biodiesel instead of fossil diesel and utilize modern hybrid electric technology, consuming significantly less fuel than previous equipment. With these new machines, efficiency and


productivity will improve, meeting our customers’ demands. We are delighted that Konecranes has fulfilled the mission and delivered the straddle carriers promptly, allowing us to use them already today,” sai Povl Dolleris Røjkjær Ungar, COO, Copenhagen Malmö Port. The straddle carriers can lift containers


1-over-3, unlike the ones currently used at the existing terminal, which lift 1-over- 2, which means more containers can be stored in the same space. Hubert Foltys, head of Konecranes


Straddle Carrier business, said CMP has set the bar high in terms of energy consumption and emissions. Konecranes will also deliver two electric


Ship-to-Shore cranes to CMP for the new terminal in 2025.
