European Energy Programme for Recovery
…in 2009, aimed at supporting investments in the context of the 2008 economic crisis and the clean energy transition. The nearly €4 billion (more than USD 4 billion) European programme aimed to fund 44 gas and electricity infrastructure projects, 9 offshore wind projects and 6 carbon capture and storage projects.
As of 2018, 35 of 44 projects in gas and electricity infrastructure were completed; 4 of 9 in offshore wind are operational, but only one in carbon capture and storage (the CIUDEN Technology Development Plant in the north of Spain, which tested CO2 capture technology in an oxy-combustion process.)
