Enerdatics data reveals that the European Investment Bank (EIB) has participated in over €16bn of debt financings in Europe since the start of 2024, already surpassing last year’s total. This capital has been allocated across sectors such as EV battery manufacturing, solar, onshore and offshore wind, and hydrogen, targeting regions including Sweden, Denmark, and France.
These investments align with EIB’s goal of deploying over €1tn in green investments by 2030 and aligning all new operations with the Paris Agreement. Additionally, the EIB aims to allocate more than 50% of its financing to climate action and environmental sustainability by 2025.
Recently, EIB provided a €1.2bn loan to RWE for the 1.1 GW Thor offshore wind farm in Denmark. Construction is set to begin in H1 2025, with full operation expected by the end of 2027.
