Annual diesel-electric rubber-tired gantry (RTG) crane CO2 emissions 2017
This statistic illustrates the average carbon dioxide emissions of diesel-electric rubber-tired gantry (RTG) cranes as of 2017, broken down by consumption. A consumption of 13 liters per hour produced a total of 173,940 kilograms of carbon dioxide equivalent per annum. Rubber-tired gantry cranes are widely used in container stacking operations in ports around the world. To reduce ports' environmental footprint, an increasing share of RTG cranes are operating on grid power rather than fossil fuels.
