HHLA terminal in Estonia completes first phase of autonomous electric trucking project with Fernride

Hamburger Hafen und Logistik AG (HHLA) TK Estonia and Fernride have completed the first phase of their joint project at the Estonian terminal, looking to promote autonomous driving. The first phase of the joint project, which began in January at the terminal near Tallinn, aims to determine the technology’s operational reliability in the area of automated container handling and to validate its appropriateness for future business opportunities. After the project team was able to provide a proof of concept during the first phase, the Fernride system was successfully integrated into HHLA TK Estonia’s work processes.
