The Smart Marina

• 160 mooring places

• 30 rental e-boats

• Marina building 500 m2

• Restaurant 500 m2

• Pool

• Sustainability weighs 20%

Tender Amstelkwartier: Smart Marina

Planning Smart Marina • Opening Tender (January 2013)

– Communication & promotion Smart Marina: news articles, networks, TV, websites/social media.

– Responses and questions will be documented

• Selection process candidates (March/April 2013)

– Documentation: blockers & enablers Smart Marina

• Start built 2014

Threats…

• Legal problem: stop on licensing new tour boats (too many) • Without 30 e-rental boats: no business model for Smart Marina • Hopefully: The Smart Marina Pilot... • ....and a successful Smart Marina businesscase!

What’s done for cleaner Canal Cruisers?

• Environmental permits (half the price for electric) • Water chargingstations on central locations • Engine requirements for 2015 (Phase IIIB) • Subsidy for Cleaner Canal Cruisers: replacing old dirty engines

with cleaner engines –CCR3 / electric.

Small electric boats

But the subsidy for electric isn’t going fast….

The Clean Canal Cruise Guide

Now what?

Research for the Clean Canal Cruise Guide being done now!

– What are the blockers and enablers for electric Canal Cruisers?

– What are the chances now and in the future for electric Canal Boats and possible Smart Grid?

How many batteries are on board this e-Canal Cruiser?

First results…

• Positives: no engine-noise, no air pollution or smell, positive (environmental conscious) image for Canal Cruise Company

• Negatives: batteries take up a lot of space and you need many, e-pionering, batteries are also very expensive.

• Chances: honest information about electric boating, subsidy Lithiumbatteries,

more mooringspots with chargingstations

Final results of the E-Harbours Clean Canal Cruise Guide

– Will be shared with Canal Cruise cities in the EU (Venice, Brugge, Paris, etc) and other interested cities and companies

– Will be ready end this year!

Thank you!
