Short circuit caused smoke development
On the morning of Sep 16, 2026, smoke was detected on the 'Imke von Ahn', a former cargo ship, which has been converted into a residence at the Levie Vorst Quay in Rotterdam. The occupants noticed the smoke and managed to leave the ship safely; the emergency services were subsequently alerted. The fire department arrived at the scene and investigated the cause, determining that the smoke was triggered by a short circuit. Various power connection points are located along Levie Vorst Quay to supply electricity to the ships. Power is routed from the quay to the vessels via cables; these cables lie on the street along the quay and are protected by a layer of polystyrene foam. Local residents have long been concerned about the situation regarding these power cables. They report having complained for some time about how the cables are laid out along the quay and state that they have been waiting a long time for a solution, considering the situation unsafe. Following the incident, the fire department completely shut off the power supply. A grid operator arrived on site to assess the situation and resolve the power supply issues.
