The European Investment Bank, Europe’s long-term lending institution, has approved more than €17 billion of new loans which include support for investment in water infrastructure and renewable energy.
The EIB also gave its support to a new climate action lending strategy, to strengthen the impact of its engagement for climate related investment and renewable energy. The EIB Climate Action strategy consolidates the target of ensuring that at least 25% of its lending supports climate related investment. The Bank said the financing would leverage and sustain growing investment from the private sector in support of the transition to a low-carbon economy.
The strategy also addresses the need to invest in projects aimed at adapting to climate changes which are already occurring, and sets the goal of ensuring all EIB lending takes account of the need to mitigate the extent and the effects of climate change.
