Det är en snabbgående unik energiport, med en konstruktion som effektivt sänker energiförlusterna vid lastning och lossning. I den nya versionen har mekanismen i taket komprimerats och ger helt fri inlastningshöjd i uppfällt läge

energy berth
Explanation:
We have to be careful here. The term "energy port" seems mostly to be used for a port which deals with energy supplies, see ref 1 (Gothenburg) , which also shows that there are several separate berths with special loading /unloading facilities. As the context here seems to deal with a specific berth with some mechanism in the roof, a narrower term would be better, I think. See Ref 2 (Kulevi) which describes this type of specialist berth.
