Aspects environnementaux

The project primarily concerns investments in research and development not specifically mentioned under the EIA Directive 2011/92/EU (as amended by 2014/52/EU), and expected to be carried out in existing facilities that will not change their already authorised scope and would therefore not require an Environmental Impact Assessment (EIA). However, some of the activities included in the project may entail the construction of experimental test plants in the areas of renewable energy (wind and solar power), which may require an EIA and/or have impacts on nature conservation sites. Full environmental details will be assessed during appraisal, including the possible impacts on protected flora and fauna (Habitats 92/43/EC and 2009/147/EC).

Passation des marchés

The Bank will require the promoter to ensure that contracts for the implementation of the project shall be tendered in accordance with the relevant applicable EU procurement legislation (Directives 2004/18/EC, or 2014/24/EU where applicable, and/or 2004/17/EC, or 2014/25/EU where applicable, and/or 2014/23/EU where applicable, as well as Directives 89/665/EEC and 92/13/EEC) as interpreted by the Court of Justice of the EU, with publication of tender notices in the Official Journal of the European Union, as and where required.
