AMS Barging is being granted part of the subsidy
10 FEBRUARY 2025 | #SUSTAINABILITY
On Monday 3rd of February, Igor Jansen attended the subsidy awards ‘Zeeland in Stroomversnelling‘. During this event, AMS Barging was granted a part of this subsidy for our new innovative newbuild project. The subsidy stimulates the adoption of alternative and sustainable fuels on the waters of Zeeland.
The AMS project focuses on developing an advanced propulsion system designed for sustainable fuels such as HVO100, methanol and hydrogen. A key innovation is the integration of an ultra-low NOx aftertreatment system and an innovative Power Management System (PMS). This setup significantly reduces harmful emissions, such as NOx and CO2. This causes a 100% reduction in NOx emissions and a 94% reduction in CO2 emissions.
For Zeeland, this means economic growth, new job opportunities and a major step towards sustainable inland shipping and improved air quality. Special thanks to Holland Partners, Yerseke Engine Services and Provincie Zeeland for granting part of this subsidy to AMS Barging.
