The relationship between the Project Company and the Procuring Authorities is good. To date, there have been no significant disagreements or disputes.
During the operations phase, the Project Company receives a unitary payment based on the availability and performance standards from the Procuring Authorities, which is subject to payment deductions. The financial relationship with the City of Antwerp was based on a milestone payment once the construction was completed. Additional to the availability payments, the Procuring Authorities contribute to maintenance costs specified in the contract.
