Summary sheet
The project concerns the commercial rollout of fibre-based Ultra-High speed broadband access networks in Germany. The investments will lead to an increased fibre broadband coverage of German households and allow for maximum broadband speed levels of at least 100 and up to 1000 Mbps. The roll-out will be carried out during the years 2018 and 2019.

Investments in fixed telecommunications projects (mainly civil works for urban underground copper/fibre roll-out) do not fall under the Annexes of Directive 2014/52/EU amending the Environmental Impact Assessment (EIA) Directive 2011/92/EU. The related works have typically limited residual environmental effects as they are mainly carried out in urban areas alongside roads.
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.
