Inland shipping

Inland shipping plays a crucial role

Europe's transport inland waterway network enables the efficient movement of bulk goods and plays a vital role in regional connectivity. However, the sector is undergoing a significant transformation due to stricter environmental regulations and the need for cleaner energy solutions. Mitsubishi Turbocharger & Engine Europe (MTEE) is at the forefront of this transition, developing innovative technologies like a prototype hydrogen engine and a methanol retrofit kits (prototype) to ensure a greener, more efficient future for the industry.

Facing Green Challenges

Inland shipping is a vital part of European transport, offering the most energy-efficient way for moving bulk goods (source: European Environment Agency). With about 15,000 vessels on the EU river network, the sector supports not only logistics but also has tight-knit communities, where families often live on their vessels. However, the industry faces significant changes as stricter environmental regulations drive a crucial energy transition, pushing the industry to adopt greener technologies.

Navigating Fuel Choices

The uncertainty in choosing the right fuel systems to meet future emission regulations presents a significant challenge for shipyards and ship owners. Mitsubishi Turbocharger & Engine Europe (MTEE) is responding proactively by developing a prototype hydrogen engine and methanol retrofit kit (prototype), providing sustainable solutions that align with upcoming regulations.
