Aspects environnementaux

R&D activities included in the project will not materially change current practice and will be carried out within existing facilities and laboratories, pilot plants, etc. The R&D activities as such are not specifically listed in the Directive 2011/92/EU, therefore an Environmental Impact Assessment (EIA) should not be required by the competent authority. This, along with any other environmental details, will be verified during the appraisal.

Passation des marchés

The promoter is a private company not operating in the utilities sector and not having a status of a contracting authority. Thus it is not covered by EU Directives on procurement.
