7-8 March 2019
Inland shipping is facing enormous challenges with regard to the further optimisation of energy efficiency, environmental and climate protection. Greenhouse Gas Emissions is a very hot topic on the sustainability agenda for the shipping sector and the environmental impact reduction targets set by the Non-Road Mobile Machinery Directive are paving the way for the deployment of innovative technical solutions that will allow vessel operators to comply with this new scenario.
In the view of above the Danube Transnational Programme project GRENDEL “Green and efficient Danube fleet” in cooperation with the INDanube Innovation Transfer Centre aim to bring the innovation to the inland navigation and prepared the “Know-how transfer event on modernisation of Danube fleet.

- Fleet investment plans as basis for the future State Aid schemes in the Danube region
- Alternative (future-oriented) fuels, propulsion and other innovative systems
- Diesel-electric hybrid propulsion technologies
