Ports in Pakistan set for revolutionary smart, zero-carbon, fully automated digitalized operations powered by 5G, AI and cloud
\n Karachi
\nTianjin Port Group and Huawei announced that the two companies will deepen cooperation to build a digital twin of the world\u2019s first smart, driverless, zero-carbon port terminal, making it more automated and intelligent.
\nYang Jiemin, Vice President of Tianjin Port Group, explained that this plan consists of three parts: Construction of new automated terminals, upgrading traditional terminals, and comprehensive digital transformation.
\nThe Section C Terminal in the Beijiang Port Area of the Port of Tianjinwas the world\u2019s first smart, driverless zero-carbon port terminal.
\nIt entered large-scale commercial operations in October 2021 and has been operating stably ever since.Using 5G and L4 autonomous driving technologies at the terminal makes operations safer and more efficient.
\nAt the terminal, remotely controlled quay cranes lift loaded containers from cargo ships and put them on intelligent robots for horizontal transportation.
\nSupported by the BeiDou Navigation Satellite System, these robots are guided to automatic locking\/unlocking stationsto load\/unload containers and then to the container yard along optimal driving routes that are calculated in real-time. The entire process runswith clockwork precision.
\nJieminexplained how the new solution,which combines 5G and L4 autonomous driving technologies,has been put into large-scale commercial application in a partially public scenario at the Section C Terminal for the first time.
\nThis has provided a new model for upgrading and transforming traditional container terminals worldwide.
\n\u201cThese innovations being used at the Port of Tianjin are having a huge impact on the port industry, creating new value for ports by improving operating environments, driving green and low-carbon development, and increasing operational efficiency.
\nWe believe that these practices will promote the intelligent development of the global port industry,\u201dsaid Yang.
\nShunli Wang, Vice President of Huawei Middle East and Central Asia, said,\u201dPorts in Pakistan are set for revolutionary, smart, zero-carbon fully automated digitalized operations that leverage 5G, AI and cloud and other advanced digital capabilities.
\nWe are keen to utilize our expertise to enable ports in the region to be safer, more efficient, smart, green and more intelligent.\u201d
\nYue Kun, CTO of Huawei\u2019s Smart Road, Waterway & Port BU, stated, \u201cPorts are a vital link in the international supply chain, connecting trade and supply markets across the globe. Building more efficient smart ports is becoming an increasingly pressing requirement for the global supply chain.
\nSection C Terminal of the Port of Tianjin has been operating stably for over one year, proving that 5G and L4 autonomous driving have already been successfully adopted by industries in China and are creating true commercial and social value.\u201d
\nKun believes this progress will benefit various industries, with next-generation digital technologies, such as 5G and AI, combined to solve industry problems, promote digital industry transformation and upgrading, and generate social value.
\nAs a major modern port, the Port of Tianjin boasts 300,000-ton-class terminals with a channel depth of 22 m. It has 213 berths of various types. In 2022, its container throughput exceeded 21 million TEUs, ranking among the top 10 ports worldwide.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
