Secteur(s)
Montant BEI envisagé (montant approximatif)
Up to EUR 115 million.
Coût total (montant approximatif)
Approximately EUR 320 million.
Aspects environnementaux
If the project was located in Europe, it would not fall under Annex I or II of EIA directive 85/337/EEC, amended by directives 97/11/EC and 2003/35/EC. Mobile network deployments have limited residual environmental effects. Further details will be assessed during appraisal.
Passation des marchés
The Russian mobile market has been liberalised and is composed of several mobile operators. The privately owned promoter is one of the three operators that operate on a national scale. Therefore the promoter is exempted from public procurement procedures. The chosen procedures and their effectiveness will be checked during the appraisal.
