The Yuanhai Container Terminal, situated in Xiamen’s Haicang free trade area, is known as 皇冠体育app's first fully automated container terminal.
All loading and delivery work are done by machines, so very few workers are seen at the terminal. Thus, it has a nickname the "ghost terminal".
Compared to a traditional terminal, the automated version can save more than 25 percent in energy and cut carbon emissions by more than 16 percent.
