Environmental aspects
The project concerns investments in research and development that are expected to be carried out in existing facilities, already authorised, and which would therefore not require an environmental impact assessment (EIA) under Directive 2011/92/EU.
Procurement
The promoter is a private company not operating in the utilities sector, and is thus not covered by EU directives on procurement.
