Summary sheet
Part financing Wales & West Utilities’ 2013-16 capex programme to modernise and expand the gas distribution network in the south west of the UK.
The project is part of the Promoter’s on-going investment programme to upgrade and expand the gas distribution networks in its area of operations. The project will allow the Promoter to reinforce and continue developing the distribution networks to meet growth in both average and peak demand, as well as upgrading the system’s operations.
The project includes activities in the EU convergence regions of West Wales and Cornwall.
Current information suggests that none of the project components will require an EIA per the Environmental Impact Assessment Directive (2011/92/EU).
The investments under the project are subject to the national and EU procurement provisions defined for entities operating in the water, energy, transport and postal services sectors
