Description
Objectives

The programme concerns the R&D activities carried out in the field of opto-semiconductors (OS) for Light Emitting Diodes (LED) in the visible as well as invisible light spectrum. These measures will be implemented during the years 2014-2016.

The new products will help to replace the traditional lamps still used in many areas with more energy efficient lighting solutions.

Environmental aspects
Procurement

The investments will concern R&D activities most likely within existing facilities. Therefore, it is unlikely that the project will fall under Annex I and II of Directive 2011/92/EC. Nevertheless, the environmental details including environmental objectives of the R&D program and if needed, the CO2 footprint as well as the possible impacts on protected flora and fauna (Habitats 92/43/EEC and Birds 79/409/EEC Directives) will be assessed during the appraisal.

The promoter is a private company not operating in the utilities sector and not having a status of a contracting authority. Thus, it is not covered by the EU directives on procurement.
