    Description

    Sector(s)

    Proposed EIB finance (Approximate amount)

    EUR 40 million

    Total cost (Approximate amount)

    EUR 87 million

    Environmental aspects

    The project will have a positive impact on the environment by reducing the need for fossil fuels for heating and thus indirectly reducing pollution (mainly airborne pollution including CO2) in an urban environment. Inside the EU the project would not be subject to an environmental impact assessment (EIA), however Chinese regulation requires an EIA to be performed. The promoter has shared a draft environmental impact assessment report: at this stage no material issues are expected. The project will raise certain health and safety issues, including fire safety, which need to be managed properly. Adherence to the Bank's environmental and social standards will be further assessed during appraisal.

    Procurement

    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.

    Status

    Approved - 6/02/2015
