    Description
    Objectives

    The Project consists of investments in research, development and technological innovation.

    The investments promote industrial innovation.

    Environmental aspects
    Procurement

    R&D activities are not particularly addressed by Environmental Directives. The production of equipment and tools is not listed in Annexes I or II of the EIA Directive 97/11. The project does not entail notable changes to established production processes, which comply with applicable environmental rules and regulations.

    The Promoter is a private company not operating in the Utilities sector, and is thus not covered by EU Directives 2004/18/CE.

    Disclaimer

    Before financing approval by the Board of Directors, and before loan signature, projects are under appraisal and negotiation. The information and data provided on this page are therefore indicative.
    They are provided for transparency purposes only and cannot be considered to represent official EIB policy (see also the Explanatory notes).

    Queries regarding details of a specific project, in particular when it is under appraisal by the EIB, should preferably be addressed directly to project promoters.

    Media enquiries

    Media-related enquiries can be addressed to the EIB Press Office. Please also visit our Media information section.

    Complaints mechanism

    Any complaint regarding alleged maladministration can be lodged via the EIB Complaints Mechanism. The European Ombudsman acts as an independent external accountability mechanism of the EIB.
