COP25: President Hoyer presents new climate and energy roadmap

At the COP 25 United Nations Climate Change Conference in Madrid, the EIB will be discussing how its new climate action roadmap and recent decision to phase out support for unabated fossil fuel energy projects can support European Union leadership on international climate action.

The European Investment Bank (EIB) is set to join the United Nations Climate Change Conference (COP28) in Dubai, United Arab Emirates from 30 November until 12 December 2023. Together with global partners, the Bank will present tangible solutions for addressing the climate and environmental emergency.

The European Investment Bank (EIB) is stepping up its support for the water sector in Tunisia with two new loans totalling €30 million – a €22 million finance contract signed with Société nationale d’exploitation et de distribution des eaux (Sonede) and an €8 million contract signed with the Republic of Tunisia. Both operations are backed by a guarantee from the European Commission and will help finalise a structural project for drinking water supply in Greater Tunis, the most densely populated region of the country which is faced with growing demand for water.
