Almost €142 million will be allocated for a total of nineteen environmentally friendly projects, the European Commission said in a statement.
As disclosed, a number of projects involve converting vessels so thay may run on liquefied natural gas (LNG), as well as installing the corresponding infrastructure in ports.
The funding is part of the plan aimed at boosting the EU’s economic recovery. On 16 July, the EU announced it would inject almost €2.2 billion into 140 key transport projects. These projects are expected to help build missing transport links across the continent, support sustainable transport and create jobs.
