Abstract
The inland shipping industry could improve its environmental performance by applying environmental innovations. However, the industry is very diverse and there is a wide variety of technical, operational and logistical innovations. To find which innovations are most suitable for a fast-, cost- and effort effective adoption by the IWT industry, this research provides an understanding of the stakeholders' considerations, it evaluates the environmental innovations, and it applies theories on the adoption of innovations. Two case studies are worked out: the container market and the sand, stone and gravel market
