This is the world’s largest automated container terminal and the first fully unmanned smart port, built at a cost of about $9.6 billion USD. Known as Shanghai’s Yangshan Deep-Water Port, it has 30 deep-water berths handling 10 000-ton ships and an annual capacity of 47.3 million TEUs—more than all U.S. ports combined. The port runs silently yet efficiently, with every step from loading to transport done by intelligent automated systems. Operating 24/7 year-round, it has remained the world’s No.
