Implementation opinions on accelerating the green and intelligent development of inland waterway vessels

Fifth, establish and improve the green intelligent ship industry ecology

(12) Improving supporting facilities for the operation of green and smart ships. We will speed up the construction of supporting infrastructure, support the construction of new energy and clean energy supply facilities such as filling and charging (replacement) electricity, improve the construction approval process and acceptance criteria system, and build a convenient and complete network of facilities. We will innovate the construction and operation models of supporting facilities, study and build a long-term stable supply and price guarantee model linked to traditional energy sources, and achieve coordinated and sustainable development of energy industries such as electricity and LNG and shipbuilding industries. Improve the comprehensive service level of supporting facilities, encourage the construction of green shipping comprehensive service areas, and provide integrated and integrated services such as ship energy supply, emergency navigation repair, spare parts supply, emergency rescue, household services, sewage waste reception and transportation. We will support the construction of shore-based ship control centers and inland waterway ship control cloud platforms, strengthen ship-shore communication facilities, and enhance remote driving support capabilities.

(13) Promote green smart ship business model innovation. Create a new model of benefit sharing, support cargo owners, ports, energy companies, financial institutions, power batteries and other key supporting enterprises to deeply participate in the development of the inland green smart ship industry, stabilize transportation demand and energy supply, reduce construction and operation costs, and improve the quality and efficiency of operations. Explore ship leasing, and promote large-scale centralized manufacturing and specialized leasing operations; Explore the sharing of facilities, and implement the sharing of portable ship equipment such as standardized fuel tanks and tank power supplies; Explore the separation of ship electricity, and provide public battery design, manufacturing, leasing, recycling, processing and other services by third-party standardized box-type power leasing enterprises; Explore intelligent operation and maintenance, and improve the ability of professional public operation and maintenance platforms to provide accurate services such as ship maintenance and fuel supply.

(14) Strengthen and improve ship operation management. Carry out the optimization of ship types, research and formulate a green and intelligent inland river ship type catalog, and explore the policy support for the ship types in the catalog. China will strictly implement the national standards for the discharge of air and water pollutants from ships, study and implement an energy efficiency Design index (EEDI) access system for newly built inland waterway ships, establish an energy efficiency marking system for existing inland waterway ships, accelerate the scrapping and renewal of existing old ships with high energy consumption and high emissions, and encourage areas where conditions permit to establish an exit mechanism for existing oil-powered ships. Improve the technical specifications of pure battery power, methanol, hydrogen fuel and other ships, and establish a standard system for charging (replacing) electric vessels. We will adjust and improve the policy for major reconstruction of passenger vessels, and support the use of batteries and LNG power on qualified existing passenger vessels. Strengthen the dynamic supervision and management of the quality of fuel oil used by ships, and severely punish vessels and enterprises that use oil illegally.

15. Strengthening safety and quality management. Improve the safety and quality technical standards of green smart ships and key equipment, and strengthen the risk assessment of key ship supporting systems and equipment such as power systems, storage, transportation and refueling systems. Strengthen the management of ship inspection to ensure the quality of ship inspection. Enterprises in inland river ship manufacturing, shipping and supporting infrastructure operations should strengthen quality and safety risk management, strictly implement relevant standards, earnestly implement the responsibility system for safe production, establish and improve quality and safety management systems and systems, and strengthen education and training in safe production.

6. Strengthen organization and implementation

(16) Encourage early trials. We will further implement major regional strategies such as the coordinated development of the Beijing-Tianjin-Hebei Region, the development of the Yangtze River Economic Belt, and the development of the Guangdong-Hong Kong-Macao Greater Bay Area. We will encourage the provinces of Jiangsu, Zhejiang, Anhui, Fujian, Shandong, Hubei, Guangdong, Guangxi, and Hebei's Xiongan New Area to take the lead, pool all kinds of social resources, increase the number of green and smart ships, and optimize the stock of traditional oil-powered ships. Strengthen the supervision of the operation of new energy and clean energy inland waterway vessels, improve the overall quality level and energy efficiency level of inland waterway vessels, significantly reduce pollution emissions of inland waterway vessels, and form a new model of green intelligent inland waterway vessel operation and development that can be replicated, promoted and sustainable.
