Neue Finanzierung für Klimaschutz und Biodiversität Ereignis

Am 16. Februar 2015 führten die Europäische Investitionsbank (EIB) und die Europäische Kommission zwei neue Finanzierungsinstrumente ein. Die neuen Instrumente heißen "Private Finance for Energy Efficiency" (PF4EE) und "Natural Capital Finance Facility" (NCFF). Das PF4EE-Instrument soll Banken dazu bringen, mehr Kredite für Energieeffizienzmaßnahmen zu vergeben und sie zu günstigen Bedingungen bereitzustellen. Das NCFF-Instrument wird Projekte zur Bewahrung von Ökosystemdienstleistungen und zur Anpassung an den Klimawandel fördern.

On 16 February 2015, the European Commission and the European Investment Bank launched two new financial instruments to drive investment in energy efficiency, efforts to preserve natural capital, and adaptation to climate change. The Natural Capital Financing Facility (NCFF) is a financial instrument that combines EIB financing and European Commission funding under the LIFE Programme, the EU’s funding instrument for the environment and climate action. Private Finance for Energy Efficiency (PF4EE) instrument is a joint agreement between the EIB and the European Commission which aims to address the limited access to adequate and affordable commercial financing for energy efficiency investments. The instrument targets projects which support the implementation of National Energy Efficiency Action Plans or other energy efficiency programmes of EU Member States.
