Aspects environnementaux

The R&D activities are expected to be carried out in existing facilities, already authorised, that will not change their scope due to the project. In the light of this the project is not expected to require an Environmental Impact Assessment as per directive 2011/92/EU. However, some of the activities included in the project, notably the development and testing of new WTGs (Wind Turbine Generators), may result in the construction of experimental wind farms and as such could require an EIA and/or have impacts on Nature conservation sites. The Bank's services will investigate the details during the appraisal.

Passation des marchés

The promoter is a private company not operating in the utilities sector and not having a status of a contracting authority. Thus, it is not covered by the EU directives on procurement.
