Environmental aspects
The project concerns investments related to the research and development and to the manufacturing of space propulsion systems that are not specifically listed in the EIA directive Annex I or II. An Environmental Impact Assessment (EIA) is therefore not required under Directive 2014/52/EU amending the EIA Directive 2011/92/EU. Environment details will however be checked during appraisal.
Procurement
The promoter is a private company not operating in the Utilities sector and not having a status of a contracting authority. Thus it is not covered by EU Directives on procurement.
