Aspects environnementaux
The project is an expansion of a distribution electricity network and construction of a new hydroelectric power generation plant and a wind farm in Styria, Austria. The project falls under Annex II of the EIA Directive 2011/92/EU. Here, the competent authority in line with Austrian environmental law (UVP-G 2000) requested an Environmental Impact Assessment (EIA) including public consultation for a wind farm and hydroelectric power plant. The final environmental permits were granted for both. Electricity distribution at medium and low voltage, are typically implemented with low or insignificant environmental impact. The environmental impact of all the projects will be further appraised.
Passation des marchés
The European Commission has exempted the generation of electricity in Austria from public procurement provisions by Decision 2008/585/EC. The Bank will review the project's procurement procedures to ensure that its funds are used appropriately for the purchase of works, goods and services.
