The high initial investment required for purchasing and installing advanced yard cranes stands as a significant hurdle for many businesses, particularly smaller ports & terminals. This financial barrier often delays or deters the adoption of efficient crane systems, hindering the overall market growth, especially among organizations with limited budgets or in developing regions.

COVID-19 Impact

The COVID-19 pandemic had negatively impacted the yard crane market. Disruptions in the global supply chain, reduced trade activities, and project delays have led to decreased investments in port infrastructure. Many ports and terminals faced operational slowdowns or closures, affecting the demand for new yard cranes. Additionally, financial uncertainties and budget constraints among businesses have hindered their ability to invest in expensive crane systems, further impeding market growth during the pandemic period.

Yard Crane Market Trends

The escalating import of yard cranes is cultivating a highly lucrative growth trajectory for the yard crane industry. Increased international trade demands advanced cargo handling equipment, propelling the demand for specialized yard cranes globally. For instance, in October 2023, Officials at Vizhinjam International Seaport in Thiruvananthapuram (India) effectively unloaded two rail-mounted gantry cranes from the Zhen Hua 15 project vessel docked at the port. The State Government of Kerala (India) granted permission to import these cranes in May 2023, leading to their successful arrival and unloading at the port. This surge in imports signifies a robust market demand, fostering substantial growth opportunities for manufacturers and stakeholders in the yard crane industry.

The expanding global trade is a major factor driving the market growth. Rising international trade activities have led to higher cargo volumes, necessitating efficient handling at ports and terminals. Yard cranes, crucial for loading and unloading containers, are in high demand to accommodate this growth. Ports worldwide are investing in advanced crane technology to streamline operations, thereby enhancing the market for yard cranes.

Based on type, the market is divided into Rubber-Tired Gantry (RTG) cranes and Rail-Mounted Gantry (RMG) cranes. In 2022, the Rubber-Tired Gantry (RTG) cranes segment held a market share of over 74%. Partnerships are driving large enterprises forward in the market. The adoption of fuel-efficient hybrid engine yard cranes is driving the growth of RTG cranes in the yard crane industry. These innovative cranes significantly reduce fuel consumption, making them environmentally friendly and cost-effective choices for port & terminal operations. For instance, in March 2023, The Georgia Ports Authority (U.S.) allocated USD 170 million to acquire 55 hybrid engine rubber-tired gantry cranes for the redevelopment of Savannah Port’s Ocean terminal into an all-container facility. This move is expected to slash fuel consumption by approximately 47% compared to using all-diesel machines. This reduction translates to 8,800 gallons less diesel per crane annually across the ocean terminal fleet.
