European Inland Waterway Transport Platform
Thanks to continuous efforts of EBU and ESO, the two associations representing the interests of ”Inland Shipping Entrepreneurs“, succeeded in having EC regulation 718/1999 amended. In practice this means that since mid 2014 the fund originally intended to be used for Community- fleet capacity policy can also be used to adapt vessels to technical progress, including higher environmental standards. For all these purposes the joint platform “European IWT Platform” was established.
