o Private investment;
o European Funds (e.g. Juncker Plan – Investment Plan for Europe).
Non-financial resources:
o Increased capacity for--
• defining eligibility criteria,
• project sourcing,
• project design ad formulation,

• financing needs assessment,
• outreach to financial contributors and project promoters,
• quality control, including through a labelling system, defining and
executing a communication plan,
• administrative tasks.
