One of the key challenges to getting emission-free boating off the ground at scale is: how do we finance it? Over the past period, we have worked with entrepreneurs, banks and other financiers to identify the challenges and how we can work together to address them. During this partner meeting, we will share insights and perspectives on the financing issue of zero-emission inland navigation

Date: Wednesday, 11 March

Whitepaper: From TCO Insight to Practical Affordability

With a TCO index of 107 (fossil = 100), battery-electric sailing is already virtually cost-competitive with diesel today. For the short-distance segment, investment decisions are realistic within 2 to 3 years.

Working group approach & governance - Infrastructure

Through the working group structure, we get to work in the operational working groups to arrive at investment-grade infrastucture, and in the validation working group we look at overarching themes that we need to solve together (policy, regulations, standards etc).

Plan of action - Infrastructure

In this plan of approach, Condor describes how the development of zero-emission charging infrastructure will be accelerated by developing locations programmatically into investment-worthy projects.

About Rianne de Vries

With in-depth knowledge of sustainable propulsion technologies, alternative fuels and infrastructure solutions for the inland navigation and maritime sector, I actively contribute in various ways to accelerating the transition to zero-emission transport. I use my experience in ports, maritime sector combined with a pramatic approach to create system conditions for large-scale sustainability of inland navigation.

About Renze Boersema

In this project, I focus on developing and validating the financial and strategic rationale for zero-emission boating. Specifically, I visualise the business case for both hydrogen and battery-electric solutions, with an eye for operational and economic feasibility. I also conduct discussions with banks to formulate clear financing requirements that match the specific characteristics of sustainable inland vessels. Finally, I provide an overview of available subsidy schemes and support options, so that the sector can make optimal use of incentives for sustainability.

About Johan Gille

From the Port of Rotterdam Authority, Johan focuses on a reliable, future-proof and sustainable waterway network. After all, inland shipping is the lifeline for the port. He has a broad network in government, provinces and inland ports and promotes the development and standardised deployment of instruments that governments can use to support the move to zero emission inland shipping.

About Irma Belgraver

Irma focuses on developing financing arrangements to support zero-emission shipping. From a strong network within the inland navigation sector, government organisations, industry associations and knowledge institutes, she initiates collaborations to strengthen the economic feasibility of sustainability. In the coming period, strategic options will be explored to optimise the business case.

About Eric Warners

Eric Warners worked in the port of Amsterdam for more than seven years on initiatives to make shipping and industry more sustainable. He has been involved with Condor since October 2024. Eric has always gericht on complex issues that can only be solved through (public-private) cooperation. For the past decade, his focus has been entirely on the maritime and industrial sectors.

About Wouter Vuijk

Within the Port of Rotterdam Authority, Wouter works on making inland navigation more sustainable, with a specific focus on the transition to emission-free sailing. At Condor, he supervises the process in which, in cooperation with the sector, technical standards are being developed. This removes an important threshold for this transition.
