船舶绿色化水平的提升，有助于进一步强化水运在绿色低碳方面的优势。然而，建设和运营成本高，一 定程度上也会影响这些绿色船舶的推广使用。例如，LNG燃料动力船舶较新建同等吨级的柴油动力船 舶成本增加近40%。且受市场波动影响，LNG阶段性价格可能高于燃油，一定程度上会影响船东应用积 极性。对此，在完善LNG加注站、充换电站等配套设施的同时，还要加大技术研发力度，为市场提供 更多绿色技术的选择。同时，还要精准释放政策红利，比如完善经济激励措施，出台鼓励实施新能源清 洁能源船舶优先靠离泊、优先过闸等支持政策，让绿色船舶获得更大竞争优势。 内河航运是我国综合交通运输体系的重要组成部分。随着内河港口和航道能力的提升，我国2024年的内 河货运量达到了49.5亿吨，是2012年的2.2倍，货物周转量达到了2.2万亿吨公里，是2012年的2.9倍。越 来越多的企业选择走水路，更低廉的运输成本是重要原因。经测算，内河航运吨公里运价仅为铁路的 1/3、公路的1/7。而且，水路运输的运能更大，一艘万吨级的货船与100节火车车厢或400辆大型卡车的 载重量相当。据报道，浙江省温州市与丽水市之间的瓯江集装箱海河联运航线开通后，以往30 ...
