Summary sheet
The project concerns the research, development and innovation (RDI) activities for the development of an extended thrust version of a new aero-engine family.
The proposed RDI investments are consistent with the Bank’s transport lending policy, contributing through research, development and innovation activities to improved energy efficiency, reduced fuel burn and cost-efficient aircraft.
The RDI activities are expected to be carried out in existing and already approved research and development (R&D) centres that will not change their scope due to the project. The project is not subject to Directive 2011/92/EU, and an environmental impact assessment (EIA) is therefore not needed. However the Bank’s services will further assess all the environmental details during the due diligence.
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.
