EIB Climate Change Initiative

The EIB – together with the European Commission – has developed a number of financial instruments and technical assistance programmes to support low carbon projects.

In addition, the EIB has established a EUR 5m Climate Change Technical Assistance Facility (CCTAF) to provide advance funding for activities associated with the development of project-based carbon credits under the Joint Implementation (JI) and Clean Development (CDM) mechanisms of the Kyoto Protocol on a conditional loan basis.

The EIB has co-sponsored a total of six carbon funds in cooperation with other public and private financing institutions to encourage carbon trading in less developed areas of the carbon market.

The EIB puts particular emphasis on raising the awareness of its staff with respect to climate change issues to:
- enhance the mainstreaming of mitigation issues in the project work and;
- integrate adaptation considerations throughout the project cycle from design to monitoring.
