Investments to upgrade and extend Northern Gas Networks' gas distribution infrastructure – 2014-17.
The investments are envisaged to go towards financing the replacement of metallic pipes by polyethylene ones, connecting new customers (including some facing fuel poverty), upgrading key infrastructure above ground and modernising information technology systems and other ancillary assets.
Current information suggests that the project components will fall under Annex II of the Environmental Impact Assessment Directive (2011/92/EU), requiring the competent authority to determine the need for an EIA in line with the Directive.
The investments under the project are subject to the national and EU procurement provisions defined for entities operating in the water, energy, transport and postal services sectors.
