    Description

    Investment fund targeting debt securities related to renewable energy and energy efficiency projects in Italy

    Objectives

    The fund seeks to provide innovative debt financing in the form of mini bonds to smaller renewable energy projects in Italy.

    Sector(s)

    • Energy - Electricity, gas, steam and air conditioning supply
    • Services - Public administration and defence; compulsory social security

    Proposed EIB finance (Approximate amount)

    EUR 40 million

    Total cost (Approximate amount)

    Environmental aspects

    Most of the projects to be financed by the fund are expected to fall under Annex II of Environmental Impact Assessment (EIA) Directive 2011/92/EU, leaving it to the national competent authority to determine on the basis of Annex III of that directive whether an environmental impact assessment is required. During appraisal, the fund manager's environmental and social management capacity and due diligence procedures will be reviewed to ensure compliance with the Bank's standards and the principles of EU environmental directives (including the EIA Directive, Habitats Directive and Birds Directive, Water Framework Directive and Industrial Emissions Directive), as applicable.

    Procurement

    The fund's investment guidelines will be required to ensure that procurement procedures applied by the promoters of the underlying investments financed by the fund are in line with the provisions of the relevant directives and the Bank's Guide to Procurement.
