Umweltaspekte

Wind farms fall under Annex II of the EIA-Directive (2011/92/EU), requiring the competent authorities to determine whether an EIAs are required. Given the size of the project and that it is composed of two separate parts, the competent authority has issued two decisions screening out the project from undergoing full EIA process. The Bank services will assess the authorization procedure, including screening decisions, project descriptions as well as terms and conditions of the environmental and building permits. Compliance with EU EIA, Birds and Habitats Directives will be further appraised in detail, in particular cumulative impacts and impacts on protected flora and fauna, including adjacent Natura 2000 sites.
