Investment programme for research and development (R&D) for 2016-2019
The project aims to improve existing products and processes, in terms of both efficiency of production and environmental performance, as well as at increasing the promoter's competitiveness and expanding the company's business through the development of high-added-value downstream products.
The project mainly includes R&D activities that are not specifically mentioned under the Environmental Impact Assessment (EIA) Directive and that will be carried out in existing facilities without changing their already authorised scope. The project would therefore not require an EIA.
For activities planned outside the EU, the Bank will require the promoter to ensure that implementation of the project will be done in accordance with the Bank's Guide to Procurement.
