Beschreibung
Construction and operation of new oil processing units within existing refineries at Sannazzaro de' Burgondi (Region of Lombardia) and Taranto (Region of Puglia). The project will convert heavy and sulfurous oil products into low sulfur containing middle distillates such as aviation fuel and diesel, both products of which Italy and Europe as a whole are in deficit.
Ziele
The increased production of cleaner transport fuels replacing more polluting heavy oil products is in line with European policy and directives to improve fuel specifications, leading to reduced tailpipe emissions and improved fuel economy of vehicles. Part of the project – the upgrade at Taranto’s refinery – is located in a convergence region. The project is thus eligible under article 267 a) Economic and Social Cohesion, and 267 c) Common Environment Policy. The financing of this project would contribute to the Bank’s priority lending objectives in support of environmental protection.
