Umweltaspekte

Research and development (R&D) activities are not specifically mentioned in the Environmental Impact Assessment (EIA) Directive 2011/92/EU as amended, and the project is expected to be carried out in existing facilities. The advanced manufacturing capital expenditure (capex) will be installed within existing facilities where similar equipment is already installed and operating. However, the Bank's services will review during the project appraisal all the project-related environmental details.

Auftragsvergabe

Final beneficiaries will be requested to comply with applicable EU legislation, as appropriate. The promoter is a private company not operating in the Utilities sector and not having the status of a contracting authority. Thus it is not covered by EU directives on procurement.
