According to businesses in the industry, most seaports in Vietnam are still using old-generation diesel equipment, which consumes a lot of fuel and causes large emissions. Innovating equipment in the direction of saving energy and reducing emissions such as RTG Hybrid cranes not only helps increase operating efficiency but also affirms the pioneering position of businesses in the trend of sustainable development, friendly to the environment, contributing to bringing Vietnamese seaports to the regional and world level.
