Development and challenges of the Elbe-Vltava waterway in the 21st century

Popis výsledku v původním jazyce

As part of the National and Cultural Identity Programme administered by the Ministry of Culture of the Czech Republic, the project “Documentation and Presentation of Technical Cultural Heritage on the Elbe-Vltava Waterway (EVW)” has been underway since the year 2018. The project systematically surveys the historical development of EVW navigability since the beginning of the 19th century. The paper focuses on reconstructions and refurbishments that have been realized in the 21st century and discusses the future challenges of this unique waterway. Technical modifications in the infrastructure of the waterway are compartmentalized into four main categories. Firstly, they are the modernization of the technologies of locks and hydroelectric power plants built more than 80 years ago. The second category encompasses the construction of new hydropower plants in localities where the energy potential has not yet been used. The installed capacity at the EVW has increased by more than 30 MW of renewable energy during the last 20 years. The third category contains improving parameters and capacity of the waterway. That covers modifications of the fairway and increases underpass heights under bridges. The last group contains the constructions of new recreational berths, which complement the existing infrastructure on the waterway and opens up the opportunity for more intensive recreational use. Concerning further expected development, other investment projects to increase the potential use of the Elbe-Vltava waterway are preparing. The presented future projects at EVW represent a unique social challenge and help to fulfill the meaning and purposes of sustainable transport infrastructure built for more than the purposes of sustainable transport infrastructure built for more than 150 years.
