Umweltaspekte

The related research and development activities will be carried out in existing facilities, as well as the installation of new ground stations will take place at sites already being used for the same purpose. Such activities are therefore not likely to fall under the Annexes of the Environmental Impact Assessment (EIA) Directive 2011/92/EU (amended by Directive2014/52/EU). There is no particular negative residual impact on the environment expected. Further details will be verified during the appraisal phase.
