Kalmar, part of Cargotec<\/a>, will supply 18 Kalmar Hybrid Shuttle Carriers to The Port of Virginia, a deepwater port on the U.S. East Coast.<\/p>\n

This is the fifth consecutive order of hybrid shuttle carriers from The Port of Virginia, demonstrating the customer\u2019s confidence in Kalmar and Kalmar\u2019s leading hybrid technology. The previous corresponding orders date back to 2017. The order will be booked in Cargotec<\/a>\u2019s Q3 2021 order intake, and the delivery of the machines is scheduled to be completed by the end of June 2022.<\/p>\n

Of the new units, 15 will be delivered to Norfolk International Terminals (NIT) and three to Virginia International Gateway (VIG). These are the port\u2019s primary container terminals and each is capable of handling the biggest vessels in the Atlantic trade. The Port of Virginia has been using Kalmar hybrid shuttle carriers since August 2015. With this order delivered, the customer will have altogether 92 Kalmar Hybrid Shuttle Carriers in operation at their terminals in addition to the diesel-hydraulic Kalmar shuttles from the terminal\u2019s original grand opening in 2007. Kalmar also provides the port with support and servicing through a dedicated, local team of technicians with many years of experience and a comprehensive, local parts inventory.<\/p>\n
