2、e will bring increasing demands from society for a better quality of life and for more sustainable designs also in port handling facilities. Moreover, scarcity of land forces port authorities to realize higher area utilizations. Terminal operators have equal objectives, but on top of that they are l
3、ooking for cost reductions through decreased life cycle cost (energy consumption, maintenance, life-time, etc.). Many of these topics have their impact on the design of terminal (stack) handling systems and for that reason both the terminal operators (in their systems specs and equipment specs) and
4、the system (equipment) suppliers are in the process of installing more sustainable, environmentally friendly and cost-effective handling systems. In this chapter the authors present a design approach and directives to be applied for stacking systems and connected transportation systems in container
5、terminals. Covered topics are: performance issues stack congurations, strategies to realize more sustainable designs and measures to increase cost-efciency and to reduce energy use and eco-impact. The chapter shows the challenge how to balance service requirements, costs and demands for sustainabili
6、ty. 1. Introduction During the last decades the world showed a growing awareness of the limited re-sources on earth and an increasing concern about our environment and ecology. This is reected in rising demands from the society for a better quality of life, preservation of nature and more sustainable designs for products as well as facilities and services. Fortunately the younger people support the aggravating directives for a more sustainable world and also the industry has accepted thes
