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?

    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.

    State of EU progress to climate neutrality – ECNO 2025 Flagship report

    Europe is making progress on the clean transition, but the pace is too slow across several parametres. ECNO’s analysis is structured around 13 building blocks of the transition, tracking changes in the six-year trend for nearly 150 indicators and also the expected impact of policies – a new addition to this year’s report. In the 2025 edition, we also analysed the changes through the lens of broader EU objectives, namely competitiveness, resilience, and citizens’ well-being.

    Can the next EU budget point the way to an investment plan for climate transition?

    In July, Commission President von der Leyen announced a €2 trillion EU budget fit “for a new era,” set to launch for a seven-year period in 2028. As EU-watchers in Brussels and beyond scrambled to digest the reams of legislative proposals that followed this headline-grabbing announcement, much in the detail should give pause – especially from the perspective of closing the EU’s climate investment deficit.
