Oxford City Council, GB seeks reduced emissions from visiting boats with eco-mooring zone pilot
Oxford City Council, GB Eco-Mooring Boat Zone Pilot
Oxford received a national Air Quality Grant for a two-year pilot of eco-mooring stations. Three charging pillars provide reliable electricity for up to six boats on the Oxford Canal. Visiting boaters can recharge their batteries so they don't need to rely on energy from wood burning or diesel. One pillar features the equipment necessary to recharge all-electric vessels. City officials and the canal operator will promote emission-reducing vessel retrofits during short-term stays.
