Tianjin Port announced on Tuesday the inauguration of the world's first container terminal empowered by the internet of things and the first batch of the zero-carbon ro-ro terminals.

The IoT-driven container terminal is an upgraded version of the world's first zero-carbon terminal in Section C of the Beijiang port area, which made its debut in October 2021.

The first zero-carbon ro-ro terminals include three leading terminals.

They are recognized by the China Classification Society, which granted the carbon neutral certificate to the port.

The IoT terminal has installed more than 100,000 sensor-connected facilities, covering all infrastructure, including energy management and intelligent buildings.
