[0002] In order to further promote deep emission reduction in ports and actively create zero-carbon ports, it is of great significance to carry out green energy substitution for loading and unloading equipment that directly uses fossil energy in ports. Taking Shanghai Port as an example, the eight container terminal companies under Shanghai Port Group have a total of 1,308 internal container trucks. The annual carbon emissions of internal container trucks in 2020 were 100,410 tons, accounting for 59% of the carbon emissions of container terminals in the port. Therefore, in order to achieve deep energy conservation and emission reduction and cost reduction and efficiency improvement in container terminals, it is necessary to use horizontal transportation operations in the terminal as the application scenario, and promoting the use of green new energy container horizontal transporters and new energy flow machines is an inevitable development trend.
