WINDPARK SPANNBERG IV

Promoteur – Intermédiaire Financier

WEB WINDENERGIE AG

Lieu

• Autriche

Description

The project concerns the implementation and operation of a 62,8 MW wind farm in Spannberg / Lower Austria.

Objectifs

The main goal is to reduce carbon and air pollution emissions, which are externalities that the market fails to address. The wind farm will also foster the integration of new, variable renewable generation technologies in the market. Therefore, the EIB's loan will fill the unmet demand of projects developing new renewable capacity, including those with market-exposed structures and instruments.

Secteur(s)

• Énergie - Production et distribution d'électricité, de gaz, de vapeur et d'air conditionné

Montant BEI envisagé (montant approximatif)

EUR 74 million

Coût total (montant approximatif)

EUR 114 million

Aspects environnementaux

Wind farms fall under Annex II of the Environmental impact assessment (EIA) Directive 2014/52/EU (amending 2011/92/EU), requiring the competent authorities to determine whether an EIA is required. The project was subject to an EIA. During appraisal, the project's authorization procedures will be further assessed. This includes a verification of compliance of authorisation processes with relevant EU Directives.

Passation des marchés

The European Commission has exempted all contracts which are being awarded to implement electricity generation projects in Austria from the scope of the Utilities Directive. No public procurement is required.
