Sør-Trøndelag county and the National Programme for Supplier Development invite suppliers, on behalf of Trøndelag county and our collaboration partners, to a dialogue conference on a development contract for future express boats. A number of counties intend to reduce emissions from public transport and see the need to facilitate innovation and development within the express boat segment. The intention of the dialogue conference is to come into contact with the express boat industry, but also technical main and sub-suppliers, in order to get better knowledge of the options for developing future emission-free express boats. Trøndelag county would like to start up a development contract from autumn 2017, with the aim of contributing to being able to have a requirement for zero emissions on the express boat routes in tender notices from 2020.
