Sektor(en)
Vorgeschlagene EIB-Finanzierung (voraussichtlicher Betrag)
EUR 500 million.
Gesamtkosten (voraussichtlicher Betrag)
Estimated by the promoter at roughly EUR 1900 million.
Umweltaspekte
The investments fall under Annex II (underground storage of combustible gases) of the EIA Directive 85/337/EC and its amendments. The promoter informed that following a case-by-case pre-examination of potential impacts the competent authorities concluded environmental impact assessments necessary, due to the particular issues related to the construction, operation and safety of underground gas storages. Such assessments are in place or under preparation at present and do incorporate assessments as required under the Habitats Directive.
Auftragsvergabe
The promoter is a private entity and it does not possess special or exclusive rights granted by a competent authority for the development and operation of underground storages, which would limit or restrict other interested parties in accessing this market. It therefore considers itself not a contracting authority or public undertaking with regard to Directive 2004/17/EC, and thus not required to apply EU public tendering rules on a mandatory basis. Tendering follows in-house procurement guidelines that provide for transparent and non-discriminatory bidding processes involving international tendering where appropriate.
