    Promoter – Financial Intermediary

    ITALGAS SOCIETA ITALIANA PER IL GAS SPA

    Location

    Description

    2017-2020 roll-out of gas smart meters

    Objectives

    The project aims to improve efficiency of the gas distribution system as well as to increase customer information and awareness. The project will allow remote reading and more frequent consumption information, with a potential positive impact on the operation of the networks.

    Sector(s)

    Proposed EIB finance (Approximate amount)

    EUR 300 million

    Total cost (Approximate amount)

    EUR 620 million

    Environmental aspects

    Based on their technical characteristics, the installation of smart meters and their operational systems do not require environmental impact assessments. The main environmental considerations expected to arise relate to issues around the handling, disposal and storage of large volumes of old gas meters. During appraisal, the promoter's environmental, health and safety procedures will be assessed to determine that they are acceptable and in line with Bank environmental and social (E&S) requirements.

    Procurement

    The Bank will require the promoter to ensure that contracts for the implementation of the project are tendered in accordance with public procurement rules as defined in the relevant applicable EU procurement legislation.
