Termavi orders Konecranes equipment for Vigo box terminal

Terminales Marítimas de Vigo, S.L.U. (Termavi) has ordered two hybrid Konecranes Rubber-Tired Gantry (RTG) cranes equipped with the complete range of Konecranes Smart Features.

The order was booked in the fourth quarter of 2024 and delivery is scheduled for the fourth quarter of 2025.

Termavi operates the main container terminal at Spain’s Port of Vigo on the country’s Atlantic coast and has implemented a number of initiatives to increase energy efficiency, reduce its carbon footprint and protect biodiversity.

“Our investment in hybrid Konecranes RTGs aligns with our drive for more efficient and sustainable container handling. These cranes cut emissions and reduce fuel consumption, and their advanced safety and automation features improve our productivity. We’re also leaving the door open to potential retrofitting for hydrogen power,” mentioned Román Davila González, Associate Director, Termavi, Grupo Davila.

The cranes are equipped with the complete range of Konecranes Smart Features including Auto-Steering, Auto-Truck Guiding, Auto-Path Optimization and Auto-Positioning, keeping the RTGs on course and ensuring precise container handling. Additional enhancements include trolley and truck lane cameras, tire pressure monitoring, fire suppression systems and automatic greasing systems.
