Investments in research, development and innovation related to steel products, production processes and new product applications during the period of 2012-15.
The project aims at developing new special steel products and product applications as well as improving sustainability and efficiency of the production processes.
The project concerns investments in research and development that are expected to be carried out in existing facilities already authorised for the same purpose, and would therefore not require an EIA under the Directive 2011/92/EU. Any possible environmental issue will however be verified during the project’s appraisal.
The promoter is a private company not operating in the Utilities sector, and is thus not covered by EU Directives on procurement.
The project may be financed under the Risk Sharing Finance Facility (RSFF), which is an innovative credit risk sharing scheme jointly set up by the European Commission and the European Investment Bank to improve access to debt financing for private companies or public institutions promoting activities with a higher financial risk profile in the fields of research, technological development, demonstration and innovation investments.
