    Sector(s)

    Proposed EIB finance (Approximate amount)

    Environmental aspects

    The project concerns investments in research and development and will be carried out in existing facilities, already authorised, that are expected no to change their scope due to the project; thus an Environmental Impact Assessment (EIA) would not be required by the EIA Directive 2011/92/EU. However, full environmental details will be assessed by the Bank’s services during the appraisal.

    Procurement

    The promoter is a private company operating in the manufacturing sector and not having a status of a contracting authority. Procurement is expected to be in line with EIB guidelines for private sector projects. The Bank’s services will verify details during the project’s due diligence.
