EU Support for drafting environmental impact assessments and related products for energy projects
This framework agreement from the Ministerie van Economische Zaken en Klimaat focuses on accelerating and optimizing the drafting of environmental impact assessments (EIA) for various energy projects, including offshore wind farms, onshore grid connections, hydrogen, and CCUS projects. The tender requires in-depth knowledge of Dutch and EU environmental legislation, the ability to produce EIAs that comply with the requirements of the Wet Milieueffectrapportage, and experience in delivering additional related products (such as impact analyses, mitigation plans, and stakeholder consultations). The procedure is public, ensuring transparency and competition are central. The contracting authority expects a professional team that is both technically and legally proficient, capable of analyzing complex project environments and delivering a full EIA within the specified timelines.

The development of energy infrastructure, projects, and programs such as offshore wind farms, the connection of offshore wind farms, onshore grid connections, hydrogen projects, and CCUS projects requires the prior drafting of an environmental impact assessment (EIA). This framework agreement is established to enable faster and more efficient procurement of assignments for drafting these EIAs, including in some cases a number of related products (see below). Regularly, the basis for the framework agreement is the drafting of environmental impact assessments for energy projects and programs.
