Aspects environnementaux

Research and development activities on machine tools and related technologies are not listed in any of the annexes of the Environmental Impact Assessment (EIA) Directives. The financed activities are expected to be carried out in already-authorised and existing facilities that will not change their scope due to the project. Therefore, the project is likely not to require any additional environmental permits; full environmental details will be however assessed during the project appraisal.

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 a status of a contracting entity, and thus is not subject to EU rules on public procurement. Under these conditions, the procurement procedures to be followed by the Promoter are suitable for the project and satisfactory to the EIB.
