Looks like the RRF (recovery & resilience facility) money is starting to flow .... naturally the countries hit the hardest get a larger slice , Greece / Italy / Spain for example , but with Marks comment re: ''opportunities exist now that weren't there 12 months ago " , I still maintain its the way to go .... a loan to go it alone ?
To achieve the goals set by the European green deal , the commission has pledged to mobilize at least 1 Trillion Euro's in sustainable investments over the next decade
30% of the E.U's multi annual budget (2021-2028) & the E.U's unique NextGenerationEU (NGEU) instrument to recover from the Covid-19 pandemic , has been allocated for green investments
The E.U cohesion policy helps E.U countries , regions , local governments & cities to implement large investments that contribute to the European green deal . They must devote at least 30% of what they receive from the European regional development fund to these priorities
The InvestEU program will contribute to this effort & provide the E.U with crucial long-term funding by leveraging substantial private & public funds
A dedicated just transition scheme will generate additional investment to the benefit of just transition territories in complementarity with the just transition fund & the public sector loan facility
