EIB Climate Bank Roadmap 2026-30: Strengthening the EU’s climate action toolbox through strategic sustainable finance
Introduction Climate change arguably remains the most urgent challenge of our time. Record-breaking temperatures month after month and increasingly deadly and economically devastating climate disasters demonstrate that decisive and sustained action is still needed to cut planet-warming emissions. While other priorities for public funding and support have emerged, addressing climate…

Energising the EU: How Nuclear Energy Can Help Decarbonise European Industry
Heavy industries account for over half of Europe’s energy consumption, much of which goes toward heat production – a sector that still widely uses fossil fuels and is thus a major risk to the EU’s ability to decarbonise. Emissions from heavy industries are mostly attributed to high-temperature heat and round-the-clock…

Strengthening Poland’s Nuclear Strategy through Financing, Small Modular Reactors, and International Collaboration
Introduction Poland’s energy transition faces distinct challenges rooted in its overreliance on coal, aging infrastructure, and fiscal constraints. The country’s longstanding dependence on coal in Poland’s energy sector presents unique challenges as the country strives for a low-carbon future. As the tenth most manufacturing-reliant economy in Europe with a carbon-intensive…

Nuclear Energy Orderbooks 101: Enabling Cost-Effective Nuclear Deployment in Europe
EU Member States expect to deploy at least 60 GW of new nuclear capacity by 2050 to meet its climate and energy security goals. But without greater coordination, the bloc risks a fragmented rollout of new nuclear energy: duplicated efforts, spiralling costs, underinvested supply chains, and project delays. A nuclear…

From Ambition to Realisation: A Vision for Germany’s Decarbonisation
Executive Summary Germany has made significant efforts toward achieving net-zero emissions and has markedly progressed in transforming its energy system. This success relies heavily on the expansion of renewable energy and enabling infrastructure. However, as weather-dependent renewable capacity grows, Germany increasingly faces periods of both energy surplus, when conditions are…
