EUROPEAN CONFERENCE – CLIMATE FINANCE FOR TERRITORIES

Two months before the launch of the 21th Conference of Parties (COP 21), I4CE and the FMDV, in partnership with the Climate KIC, the City of Paris, the French Development Agency, the Caisse des Dépôts and PUCA, organized a conference on mitigation and adaption to climate change at local level.

Through workshops, this event will highlight financing tools available for cities, shared the experiences of practitioners and fostered discussion among participants.

Participants joined the debate alongside Ronan Dantec (UCLG), Pierre Ducret (Caisse des Dépôts), Pascal Canfin (WRI), Michèle Sabban (FMDV), Sean Kidney (Climate Bonds Initiative), Stéphane Viallon (Campaña Investment Bank) and many other speakers. Meet elected officials, institutions, researchers and local technicians that will provide expertise on these issues using European examples:

What institutional responses to community problems in financing the fight against climate change?
What are the conditions for the success of green bonds, how to monitor it?
How to involve citizens through crowdfunding in projects taking place in their territories?
What financial mechanisms can be set up to finance the renovation of public and private housing?
How to finance adaptation projects to climate change?
What are the new international financial mechanisms?

A decade of commitment to advancing economic policies for the climate

This year marks an important milestone for I4CE: we are celebrating our 10-year anniversary. Setting sails the year the Paris Agreement was adopted, our mission was clear from the outset: to promote effective, efficient and fair policies for the climate transition. Since then, we have focused our economic analysis on public policies with an emphasis on assessing the investment needs and policy options for the transition. Our ambition has been to advance the public debate on climate with facts and figures, promoting long-term investment plans as an essential tool to turn political ambitions into reality. Over the years, we have applied this approach to a growing number of policy areas and expanded our geographical scope from France to Europe and internationally.

2030 and Beyond: Budgeting Europe’s Climate Transition

The next long term EU budget will take us through the 2030 goal posts, by when GHG emissions should be down by 55%. It will also lay the groundwork for investing in a climate-neutral future for the continent towards the yet-to-be agreed objectives for 2040. So, when the European Commission presented its proposal for a €2 trillion multiannual financial framework (MFF) just before the summer break, there was good reason to carefully study the details from the perspective of closing the EU’s climate investment deficit.
