Umweltaspekte
An offshore wind farm falls by virtue of its technical characteristics under Annex II of Directive 85/337/EEC (as by 97/11/EC 2003/35/EC). As the project is however located in Exclusive Economic Zones (EEZ) of the North Sea, it is also subject to the United Nations Convention on the Law of the Sea ("UNCLOS") and national regulations concerning installation activities in the sea, making an EIA mandatory under national law. An EIA has been carried out and submitted to the Belgian competent authorities. The Bank will review the EIA during appraisal, including a verification of any effects on nature conservation sites.
Auftragsvergabe
The wind farm concession has been awarded on the basis of objective, proportionate and non-discriminatory criteria according to national legislation. Thus, the project does not enjoy special or exclusive rights and is not subject to EU Procurement Directives. The Bank will however ensure that the procurement procedures to be applied comply with the Bank's principles and its statute, i.e. works, goods and services will be appropriately selected and are offered at competitive prices. Details will be verified during appraisal.
