NESOI - European Islands Facility

NESOI is a Horizon2020 project aiming to financially support the development of 60 clean energy projects on EU islands by 2023. The project finances technical assistance (not project implementation) to local authorities, with up to 60 000 EUR per grant. It further provides capacity-building and fund matching support.

Support the initiative

The path towards full decarbonisation of EU islands requires concerted action and a collective effort - this includes the different stakeholder groups working to make their island community future-proof, however it will not be possible without the support of expert organisations.
