CLean INland SHipping - main objectives:

➔ To improve air quality in urban areas by accelerating emissionreduction in Inland Waterway Transport (IWT):

– Demonstrate the environmental impact of emission reduction technologies, alternative fuels and OPS in real world conditions on NOx, PM and CO2

– Develop models on how emission reduction can be applied to the existing European IWT fleet in relation to costs and benefits,

– Increase awareness and support among ship-owners and policymakers on cleaner inland shipping.

Onshore Power Supply

• Demonstration of OPS on public and private quays in Ghent and Nijmegen

• Private quays: “OPS as a service”→ OPS provider in Nijmegen added features: - a security camera- a delivery point for internet shopping

• Best practice guide for ports and local authorities to select the appropriate OPS solution

Environmental Indexing methodology

11

CLINSH Index / emission factors

• Based on emissions rather than emission standards

• Uses calculated weighting factors to prioritise pollutants

• This flexible method can be adjusted to suit the needs of the

project or policy objectives

Clinsh connects to the Dutch Green Deal on Sea and Inland Shipping & Ports

• By 2050 inland shipping must be climate-neutral and emission-free

• New steering instruments by 2024

– Sustainability fund: contributions from the fund are linked to an improvement in the emission performance of the ship

– Performance determined by a labelling system based on actual emissions instead of the type of engine

– Labelling system to be developed with help of CLINSH outcomes

12

CLINSH programme summarized

• Testing the use of technologies in real life conditions, alternative fuels andOPS in order to contribute to reducing emissions of NOX, PM and CO2.

• Carrying out monitoring activities on a fleet of vessels in real time, in orde to get a picture of the environmental gains from greening technologiesand clean fuels.

• Develop (fleet)scenario’s showing the expected impact on emissions of theinland shipping fleet and on air quality in urban areas.

• Monitoring of the effect of OPS cabinets in Ghent and Nijmegen.

• On shore measurements of ship emissions on the Rhine at Lobith 13

CLINSH end results

• Policy tools and recommendations based on thedeveloped scenario’s, including financial incentives (withCCNR) to be presented at the end conference on 30 september 2021
