EBRD lends Moldova 25 mln euro to upgrade waste management infrastructure

The loan financing is boosted by a 5.6 million euro grant from multi-donor E5P fund, to which the EU is the largest contributor, the EBRD said in a press release last week.

The project enables the expansion, regionalisation, and creation of a consolidated regional solid waste management system in the participating zones. It is expected to serve as a blueprint for a sustainable solid waste management system across the country.

The EBRD’s investment will enable the government of Moldova to deliver an improved and more efficient municipal waste collection, covering not only urban centres, but rural areas as well, the bank added.
