Barge transhipment takes place entirely electrically and therefore potentially emission-free, and the existing Diesel-powered equipment is all of the latest version. They are also equipped with fuel-saving devices to reduce emissions. The quay will be equipped with shore power in 2023.
In order to achieve our aim of operating without emissions, the PIONEERS EU subsidy project from 2021 to 2025 will examine, together with about 50 market players and (semi-)governments, under which conditions emission-free transhipment with reach stackers is possible, as well as emission-free transport terminal trucks and inland vessels.
