Beschreibung
The project concerns the financing of:
i) RDI activities relating to the development of new, cleaner engine technologies under EIB’s European Clean Transport Facility (“ECTF”);
ii) RDI activities related to the development of a new generation of commercial vehicle and investments in production facilities for a new downsized engine family in Bridgend, located in South West Wales in the UK.
Ziele
The project will contribute to the promoter’s long-term competitiveness and to the market introduction of low-carbon-emission vehicles. It is expected to bring about positive environmental results in reducing fuel consumption, CO2 and regulated emissions. Part of the investment will also fund capital expenditure for modernising the Bridgend plant to produce downsized engines, emitting less CO2.
