| Abstract: | This study employs a green container terminal perspective to compare the performance of four types of cargo handling equipment used in container yards – automatic rail, rail, electric tire, and tire transtainers – based on working efficiency, energy saving performance, and carbon reductions. It is found that automatic rail and electric tire transtainers are the optimal types of green cargo handling equipment. |
