Beschreibung
The project concerns among others, the construction and rehabilitation of the wastewater collection and treatment infrastructure in Rijeka's agglomeration. More specifically, it involves networks, pumping stations, storm water overflows and a new wastewater treatment plant replacing the old, obsolete facility. It will also support the improvement works on the drinking water supply network to reduce losses from 30% to 23%.
Additionality and Impact
The project aims at supporting investments in water and sanitation infrastructure, in order to improve the coverage, quality and resilience of integrated water services in several regions across Croatia. In doing so, the projects will contribute to ensuring compliance with key European policy and regulations in the water sector, also with national water legislation, thereby supporting the Bank's Policy Objective on Sustainable Energy and Natural Resources. The projects will also contribute towards the Bank's Policy Objective of Climate Action and Environmental Sustainability. The projects will address a number of market failures including those associated with unaccounted for externalities and information failures, generating environmental and public health benefits, notably through a more rational use of water and energy resources, improvements in the quality of recipient waters and improved resilience to the impacts of climate change. The proposed investments will increase employment opportunities, and will also contribute to improve the attractiveness of Croatia as a sustainable touristic destination. Finally, the project will create economic opportunities for the population and local businesses in a less developed region according to EU Cohesion Policy, thus contributing to the EU's economic social and territorial cohesion. These benefits would not be realised to the same extent without public intervention. JASPERS contribution with technical expertise and advice has been made available to the Promoter.
The EIB's involvement will facilitate the absorption of EU Structural funds by securing national co-financing contributions of EU funded projects in Croatia. The EIB financing provides an essential financial contribution in the form of financial advantage that is currently not available in the market.
