This procurement is considered to have an immaterial impact on climate and the environment, cf. the Regulations § 7-9, fifth paragraph.

The justification for this is that the procurement, besides the procurement of electricity, concerns the procurement of consultancy services/consultancy services where the contracting authority has been cut off from affecting climate and environmental impact, as the requirements and criteria targeting these elements will not have sufficient connection to the delivery, cf. DFØ ́s environment supervisor.

The contracting authority has assessed the procurement against the apprentice regulations, cf. the Procurement Act § 7, and concluded that there is no requirement for apprentices in this procurement, as the contract ́s main element does not include work where it is relevant to use labour with vocational certificates, cf. the apprentice regulations § 6 (3).
