Several concerns were raised by third parties during consultation. These concerns were considered and addressed by the competent authority. The permit has been granted.

Passation des marchés

The European Commission has exempted all contracts from the scope of the Utilities Directive (2004/17/EC) which are being awarded to implement electricity generation projects in Austria (EC decision 2008/585/EC). This exemption allows the promoter, although a public entity, to apply commercial procurement procedures for the implementation of this project.
