Electrifying Amsterdam’s Canal Boats

For over a century, this family-run business has provided unparalleled canal cruises for tourists and VIPs in Amsterdam. The third-generation Kooij family was among the first to recognize the need for electric motors to reduce pollution and noise on the city’s waterways.

By 2025, the entire fleet will be fully electrified, with all boats powered by Super B Nomia lithium batteries, ensuring sustainable and quiet cruising through Amsterdam’s historic canals.
