RIVERBOOST project will increase the full electric range of IWT vessels by 40%, achieved through the development of two main innovations: a swappable and interoperable HESS (Hybrid Energy Storage System) integrating advanced battery technologies and innovative management maximising lifetime and safety, and a holistic full powertrain efficiency enhancement through hydrodynamic optimisation, supported by a scalable and replicable BaaS (Battery as a Service) business model for IWT application in line with the objectives of the Call. The project further develops Guidelines for rollout of extended range electric IWT vessels, safety guidelines for electrical infrastructure and operations, and recommendations for the electric charging infrastructure along waterways. Validated, operator-focused Business Case Framework for zero-emission IWT vessels exploring BaaS approach, will be designed to support commercial decision-making and accelerate market adoption of RIVERBOOST innovations. RIVERBOOST strives to improve uptake of its innovations in the IWT industry by offering clear exploitation plans per innovation. These innovations will be validated in real-world operations, paving the way for large-scale deployment of fully electric inland vessels with extended range across Europe.
