Summary sheet
Modernisation and enlargement of Grimaldi Euromed SpA fleet through the acquisition of 10 new Pure Car/truck carrier vessels which are to be employed on their Europe-North-America route
By improving the environmental performance of Grimaldi Euromed SpA fleet, the project will contribute to the development of a sustainable transport system for short and long-distance freight cargo.
The project involves the acquisition of cargo vessels and does not require an environmental impact assessment (EIA) under Annex II of Directive 2011/92/EU. Any potential environmental issues will be investigated 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 Bank will, however, review the promoter's processes during the project's due diligence.
