"Funded and managed by the European Commission and the European Investment Bank, the European Investment Advisory Hub helps identify, prepare and implement sustainable investment projects across Europe. Since its launch, the European Investment Advisory Hub has received more than 2 500 direct requests for in-depth support. In 2021, less-developed, so-called cohesion countries submitted the greatest number of requests. The European Investment Advisory Hub's main goal is to give promoters a comprehensive and bespoke advisory package, which includes information and guidance via our website, tailored assistance to develop and implement investment projects and platforms, and light advisory support when projects just need a little extra push to get up and running. As the 2021 report shows, the road to recovery is looking increasingly green and digital as the technological advances spurred on by the COVID-19 pandemic are harnessed and paired with climate-minded investments."

Long description: Kommunen engagieren sich immer mehr energie- und klimapolitisch: Stadtwerke bauen Windparks, Gemeinden planen Kindertagesstätten in Passivhaus-Bauweise, installieren Solarstromanlagen auf ihren Dächern und beraten ihre Bürgerschaft zu Energiefragen. Philipp Schönberger gibt in seiner Studie einen systematischen Überblick über die Handlungsmöglichkeiten von Kommunen zum Ausbau erneuerbarer Energien. Er analysiert anhand von drei Fallstudien – zu den Städten Emden und Prenzlau und der Verbandsgemeinde Alzey-Land – die Erfolgsbedingungen kommunalpolitischer Maßnahmen und Strategien. Er zeigt, wie kommunale Energiewende-Politik durch ein Zusammenwirken vielfältiger Faktoren erfolgreich wird: Politische und wirtschaftliche Einflüsse spielen ebenso eine Rolle wie Pfadabhängigkeiten, Umweltbewusstsein und engagierte Einzelpersonen.

"Over the last years, the European Investment Bank Group has shown that fighting COVID-19, financing the recovery, and investing in climate action and environmental sustainability are mutually supportive goals. Innovation, development and green finance are the cornerstones of our approach to creating a more sustainable economy. In 2021, the coronavirus pandemic continued to disrupt lives and businesses around the globe. At the same time, it became clear that the climate and environment crises had reached emergency levels. Urgent action is required if we are to meet the Paris Agreement's commitments and avoid biodiversity loss. The European investment Bank Group is ready to tackle these challenges, the biggest of our time. This report shows how we delivered a record €94.9 billion in financing in 2021, supporting sustainable and inclusive growth in Europe and beyond. The Sustainability report should be read in conjunction with its two annexes, the GRI and SASB disclosures, as well as with the Group's 2021 TCFD report."

Climate change mitigation and the Green Deal will remain a central topic for the EU. As a major historical contributor to greenhouse gases, it has the opportunity to reverse this trend of ever more emissions, including by providing a model to leapfrog the carbon age: EU funding and the assessment of state aid and competition law; legal Instruments, including technical standardisation, criminal law sanctions and market-based measures, such as tax incentives or the future extension of emissions trading to consumers; education; the external dimension, a potential new green hegemony and the CBAM; social aspects; climate rights enforcement; and issues arising in specific sectors, including energy, transport, public procurement, urban planning and migration.

"Urban green growth policies encourage economic development while reducing negative environmental externalities and the consumption of natural resources and environmental assets. This report is the fourth case study in the OECD Urban Green Growth in Dynamic Asia project. It explores policies and governance systems to promote green growth in Metro Cebu, Philippines, and provides recommendations for enhancing Cebu's green growth potential. Metro Cebu is the second most populated urban area of the Philippines after Metro Manila. Its economic growth has been impressive. However, it faces many challenges that hinder its sustainable growth in areas such as land use and the provision of basic urban services--transportation, energy, solid waste, and water security. Ongoing development offers numerous opportunties for the metro area to shift towards the cleaner sustainable model which the concept of green growth offers."--Page 4 of cover.
