Article 16
Enabling activities
An economic activity shall qualify as contributing substantially to one or more of the environmental objectives set out in Article 9 by directly enabling other activities to make a substantial contribution to one or more of those objectives, provided that such economic activity:
| 
                               (a)  | 
                           
                               does not lead to a lock-in of assets that undermine long-term environmental goals, considering the economic lifetime of those assets; and  | 
                        
| 
                               (b)  | 
                           
                               has a substantial positive environmental impact, on the basis of life-cycle considerations.  |
