Project EcoBin - Survey

Survey on the topic of fuel economy

The overarching aim of the “EcoBin” project is to research further energy-efficient methods in inland shipping. We are researching an assistance system that optimizes longitudinal control, including speed and rpm, similar to cruise control. In addition to saving fuel, the system should also ensure punctual arrival.

We recently launched a survey in which you can still take part until the end of April. It is aimed at experienced skippers. The aim of this survey is to record the factors that influence fuel consumption.

You can find the survey here.

We are giving away merchandise packages among all participants. Look forward to trackies, mugs, pens, key rings and more!
