Within the PLATINA II project, the project consortium released the European Greening Tool for Inland Waterway Transport, which is an initiative meant to offer vessel owners/operators, policy makers or other stakeholders state-of-the-art information about the different retrofit greening option technologies currently available for application on existing vessels. This tool also gives an estimate of the return on investment for different greening options as well as its potential impact on emissions based on the best available information. Greening technologies are constantly being developed and fine-tuned. In this respect, the initiative aims at keeping the information up-to-date by including the latest known results of ongoing research in the field of greening of the fleet. Interested parties may help enhance the tool and make it more user-friendly by sending their feedback to This email address is being protected from spambots. You need JavaScript enabled to view it..

PLATINA II is funded by the European Union (DG-MOVE) under the 7th Framework Programme for RTD.
