Environmental aspects
The project concerns investments in R&D that are expected to be carried out in existing facilities already authorised, in which case an Environmental Impact Assessment (EIA) would not be required by the EIA Directive. However, the Bank’s services will verify details related to the location of the R&D facilities, and whether the project includes the implementation of any testing facilities that could fall under the EIA directive.
Procurement
The promoter is a private-sector company operating in the automotive sector not covered by EU Directives on procurement. Procurement is expected to be in line with EIB guidelines for private sector projects. The Bank’s services will verify details during the project’s due diligence.
