Aspects environnementaux

The main part of the project activities concern Research, Development and Innovation (RDI) expenditures that are expected to be carried out in existing facilities without changing the already authorised scope and would therefore not require an environmental impact assessment (EIA) under Directive 2014/52/EU amending the EIA Directive 2011/92/EU. A smaller part of the project however concerns manufacturing related expenditures that could fall under Annex II of the EIA directive. The Bank's Services will review during the project appraisal whether any of the investments requires an EIA, as well as any other environmental details of the project.

Passation des marchés

The promoter has been assessed by the EIB as being a private company not operating in the utilities sector and not having the status of a contracting entity, thus not subject to EU rules on public procurement.
