Procurement of electricity itself is exempted from the regulations, cf. the procurement regulations §13-4 letter e. This procurement is therefore 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 is for consultancy services/consultancy services where the contracting authority has been cut off from affecting climate and environmental impact, as the requirements and criteria that are aimed at these elements will not have sufficient connection to the delivery, cf. DFØ's environmental supervisor.

The obligation to make requirements for apprentices is considered to apply for this procurement, cf. the Procurement Act §7.
