Aspects environnementaux
The project concerns primarily investments in research and development that are expected to be carried out in existing facilities already authorised and would therefore not require an EIA under Annex II of the Directive 85/337/EC, amended by Directives 97/11/EC and 2003/35/EC. In addition it includes capital expenditures related to the R&D activities and the pre-industrialisation of the products. Whether these investments concern test benches for engines, which fall under Annex II of the EIA Directive, along with any other environmental issues, will be clarified during the project’s appraisal.
Passation des marchés
The promoter is a private sector company operating in the manufacturing sector not covered by EU Directives on procurement.
