EIB Advisory JASPERS, in collaboration with the Ministry of Finance (Directorate General for European Funds), organized a webinar on the practical application of the European Commission's Technical Guidance on Climate Proofing in renewable energy projects over €10 million for beneficiaries of EU funds in Spain on September 29, 2025. Climate proofing seeks to ensure that infrastructure is resilient to the potential impacts of climate change while ensuring that GHG emissions from projects are consistent with the EU and Spanish decarbonization objectives.
The EIB Advisory JASPERS Webinar on Decarbonisation of District Heating Systems ( DH) , focused on upgrading district heating systems to meet EU energy policy objectives, enhancing energy efficiency, and reducing carbon intensity. The event highlighted the challenges faced by fossil fuel-based systems due to stricter emission standards and rising costs under the Emissions Trading Scheme (ETS). Many existing systems need upgrades to comply with EU energy policies and the EU Strategy for Energy System Integration emphasizes investing in smart, efficient, renewable-based district heating to meet climate targets. Participants learned about the latest EU financing instruments, including the Modernisation Fund and Recovery and Resilience Facility, and discovered systematic approaches to project preparation. The webinar was ideal for managing authorities, line ministries, municipalities, and district heating companies. Attendees engaged in expert-led discussions, case studies, and Q&A sessions, advancing their knowledge in district heating decarbonisation and contributing to the EU's environmental targets.

Today, promoting clean energy and energy-efficient infrastructure is one of the most active fronts in the fight against climate change. It is also the best way to reduce Europe’s dependence on energy imports.
