About
EIB Advisory through its JASPERS mandate, in collaboration with the Ministry of Finance in Spain (Directorate General for European Funds), organized the webinar "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 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.
This webinar provided an overview of the EC climate proofing methodology and its implementation in renewable energy projects in Spain, providing practical insights and examples.
Target audience
The webinar was designed for stakeholders that are involved in the climate proofing process in Spain including infrastructure developers, European fund managers, and technical staff involved in renewable energy projects.
Objectives
The webinar covered the following topics:
- Climate proofing methodology based on the EC Technical Guidance on Climate Proofing of Infrastructure for the period 2021-2027
- A case study of climate proofing assessment for a solar power plant in Valladolid with practical insights and examples of adaptation measures
- Interactive session with questions and answers to clarify key questions and discuss the difficulties that arise in the implementation of climate proofing in buildings

Decarbonisation of district heating systems in Pre-accession and Eastern Neighbourhood countries
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.
