26.2.2026 GENERAL STATEMENT OF EXPENDITURE ELI: http://data.europa.eu/eli/budget/2026/72/oj 11/2337EN OJ L, 26.2.2026 INTRODUCTION TO THE UNION’S ANNUAL BUDGET The Union’s annual budget (‘the budget’), as set out in Chapter 3 of Title II of Part Six of the Treaty on the Functioning of the European Union (TFEU), is the instrument which sets out and authorises the total amount of revenue and expenditure appropriations deemed necessary for the European Union and the European Atomic Energy Community for each year. The budget is established and implemented in compliance with the principles of unity, budgetary accuracy, annuality, equilibrium, unit of account, universality, specification, sound financial management and transparency. — The principle of unityand the principle of budgetary accuracymean that all revenue and expenditure of the Union when it is charged to the budget must be incorporated in a single document. — The principle of annuality means that the budget is adopted for one budgetary year at a time and that both commitment and payment appropriations for the current budgetary year must, in principle, be used in the course of the year. — The principle of equilibriummeans that forecasts of revenue for the budgetary year must be equal to payment appropriations for that year; borrowing to cover any budget deficit which may arise is not compatible with the own resources system and will not be authorised. — In accordance with the principle of unit of account, the budget is drawn up and implemented in euros and the accounts must be presented in euros. — The principle of universality means that total revenue is to cover total payment appropriations with the exception of a limited number of revenue items which are assigned to particular items of expenditure. Revenue and expenditure are entered in full in the budget without any adjustment against each other. — The principle of specification means that each appropriation must have a given purpose and be assigned to a specific objective in order to prevent any confusion between appropriations. — The principle of sound financial managementis defined by reference to the principles of economy, efficiency and effectiveness. — The principle of transparencyensures sound information on the implementation of the budget and the accounts. The budget presents revenue and expenditure appropriations by section, one for each of the Union institutions as defined in Article 2, point 67, of the Financial Regulation. The revenue appropriations common to all Union institutions (own resources, surpluses, balances and adjustments) are presented in a separate section ‘Total revenue’. In accordance with Article 47 of the Financial Regulation, Commission revenue and the revenue appropriations and expenditure appropriations of the other Union institutions are classified according to their type or the use to which they are assigned. The section of the budget relating to the Commission is classified according to the purpose of the expenditure, with a view to enhancing transparency in the management of the budget with reference to the objectives of sound financial management and in particular efficiency and effectiveness. On its expenditure side, the budget contains differentiated appropriations, which consist of commitment appropriations and payment appropriations, and non-differentiated appropriations. Commitment appropriations cover the total cost of the legal commitments entered into during the financial year, whereas payment appropriations cover payments made to honour the legal commitments entered into in the financial year or preceding financial years. For 2026, the expenditure appropriations authorised by the budget totals EUR 192 768 071 555 in commitments and EUR 190 091 555 667 in payments, representing a variation rate of - 3,2 % and of 18,0 % respectively by comparison with the 2025 budget (including amending budgets). 12/2337 ELI: http://data.europa.eu/eli/budget/2026/72/ojEN OJ L, 26.2.2026 In accordance with Article 312 TFEU, the budget complies with the ceilings for the year 2026 of the multiannual financial framework (MFF) for the period 2021-2027 in accordance with Council Regulation (EU, Euratom) 2020/2093 of 17 December 2020 laying down the multiannual financial framework for the years 2021 to 2027 (OJ L 433I, 22.12.2020, p. 11, ELI: http://data.europa.eu/eli/reg/2020/ 2093/oj). In this respect, this section (‘General statement of expenditure’) includes two overview tables presenting the budget according to the structure by heading of the MFF, at aggregate level as well as at cluster and programme level. This section also includes the overview table of the establishment plan posts of all Union institutions and bodies and the overview table of buildings.

INTRODUCTION According to the equilibrium principle, the total budgeted revenue of the Union must equal the total budgeted expenditure of the Union. When determining Member States’ own resources contributions, the starting point is the total amount of authorised expenditure (payment appropriations). A minor part of that amount is covered by other revenue (taxes levied on the salaries of Union staff, interest on late payments, fines and contributions from third countries to certain programmes, etc.). The remainder is financed by Member States’ own resources contributions. Own resources can be divided into the following categories: — traditional own resources, mainly customs duties, collected on behalf of the Union by the Member States; — the own resource based on value added tax (VAT): a small proportion of each Member State’s VAT base; — the own resource based on plastic packaging waste that is not recycled: a small amount applied to the weight of non-recycled plastic packaging waste generated in each Member State; — the own resource based on gross national income (GNI), which is a proportion of Member States’ GNI aggregate. It serves as the balancing resource. It finances all spending not covered by other sources of revenue so that budgeted revenue and expenditure are always in balance. The legal basis for determining the own resources is Council Decision (EU, Euratom) 2020/2053(1). That Decision entered into force on 1 June 2021, with retroactive effect as from 1 January 2021, after the ratification by all Member States according to their national constitutional requirements. It defines a system of own resources, which includes the introduction of the own resource based on plastic packaging waste not recycled. Budgetary revenue totals EUR 190 091 555 667. The uniform rate of call for the VAT-based own resource is 0,30 % whilst that for the GNI resource is 0,6930 %. Traditional own resources account for 11,24 % of the financing of the 2026 budget. The VAT-based own resource accounts for 13,02 %, the plastic-based own resource accounts for 3,59 % and the GNI-based own resource accounts for 70,28 %. Other revenue for the financial year 2026 is estimated at EUR 3 536 104 775. Own resources needed to finance the 2026 budget account for 0,97 % of the total GNI of the Union. The total amount of own resources allocated to the Union to cover annual appropriations for payments shall not exceed 1,40 % of the sum of all the Member States’ GNIs (own resources ceiling). This ceiling is temporarily increased by 0,6 percentage points for the sole purpose of covering all liabilities of the Union arising from the allocation of the resources necessary for addressing the consequences of the COVID-19 crisis. The appropriations to be covered by the own resources referred to in Article 2 of Council Decision (EU, Euratom) 2020/2053 include the costs associated with the funds borrowed on the capital markets and on behalf of the Union in the framework of the European Union Recovery Instrument in accordance with Article 5 of that Decision. The tables below set out step-by-step the method used to calculate the financing of the 2026 budget.

High-quality and trusted scientific evidence is essential for good public policies. New initiatives and proposals for Union legislation need transparent, comprehensive and balanced evidence, whereas implementation of policies needs evidence to measure and monitor their impact and progress. The JRC adds value to Union policies because its science is excellent, multi-disciplinary and independent of national, private and other external interests. Serving all areas of Union policy, it provides the cross-sectoral support that policymakers need to tackle increasingly complex societal challenges. The JRC’s independence from special interests combined with its scientific-technical reference role enable it to facilitate consensus building between stakeholders and other actors such as citizens, and policymakers. With its capacity to respond rapidly to policy needs, the JRC’s activities are complementary to indirect actions aimed at supporting longer-term policy objectives. The JRC performs its own research and is a strategic manager of knowledge, information, data and competences to deliver high quality and relevant evidence for smarter policies. To achieve this, the JRC works together with the best organisations worldwide, and with international, national and regional experts and stakeholders. Its research contributes to the general objectives and priorities of Horizon Europe, provides independent scientific knowledge, advice and technical support for Union policies throughout the policy cycle, and is focused on Union policy priorities, supporting a Europe that is safe and secure, prosperous and sustainable, social and stronger on the global scene. This appropriation covers specific expenditure relating to research and support activities, including the purchase of scientific and technical equipment, subcontracting of scientific and technical services, access to information and acquisition of consumables. This includes expenditure on scientific infrastructure directly incurred for the projects concerned, as well as expenses of external users accessing JRC physical research infrastructures in order to conduct research, undertake experimental development, or provide education and training. It also covers expenditure of any type concerning research and scientific support tasks relating to activities under this item entrusted to the JRC within the framework of its participation on a competitive basis in support of Union policies and on behalf of outside bodies. 372/2337 ELI: http://data.europa.eu/eli/budget/2026/72/ojEN OJ L, 26.2.2026 COMMISSION TITLE 01 — RESEARCH AND INNOVATION CHAPTER 01 02 — HORIZON EUROPE (cont'd) 01 02 02 (cont'd) 01 02 02 70 (cont'd) Assigned revenue (origin, estimated amounts and corresponding article or item of the statement of revenue).

This pillar shall also provide for the activities developed under the European Institute of Innovation and Technology (EIT), in particular through its Knowledge and Innovation Communities (KICs). Systematic synergies shall be ensured between the European Innovation Council (EIC) and the EIT. Innovative companies stemming from an EIT KIC may be channelled to the EIC to create a pipeline of not yet bankable innovations, while high potential innovative companies funded by the EIC that are not already engaged in one of the EIT KICs may be offered access to this additional support. Whilst the EIC and the EIT KICs may directly support innovations across the Union, the overall environment from which European innovations are nurtured and emerge must be further developed and enhanced: findings in fundamental research lead to market-creating innovations. It must be a common European endeavour to support innovation all across Europe, and in all dimensions and forms, including through complementary Union national and regional policies (including through effective synergies with the European Regional Development Fund and smart specialisation strategies) and resources whenever possible. Hence, this pillar provides also for renewed and reinforced coordination and cooperation mechanisms with Member States and associated countries, but also with private initiatives, in order to support all actors of European innovation ecosystems, including at regional and local level. Additionally, as a continued effort to enhance risk-finance capacities for research and innovation in Europe, this pillar will closely link with the InvestEU Programme. Building on the successes and the experiences gained under Horizon 2020 InnovFin, as well as under the European Fund for Strategic Investments, the InvestEU Programme will enhance access to risk finance for bankable entities, as well as for investors.

Its mission is to ensure the highest common level of safety protection for Union citizens, ensure the highest common level of environmental protection, establish a single regulatory and certification process among Member States, facilitate the internal aviation market and create a level playing field, and work with other international aviation organisations and regulators. The main activities of EASA include the collection and analysis of safety intelligence and performance data to derive strategic action plans, the certification of aviation products and the approval of organisations in all aviation domains (design, production, maintenance, training, air traffic management, etc.), the preparation of regulatory material setting up common standards for aviation in Europe and the monitoring and inspections of the effective implementation of such standards in the Member States and the Union’s neighbouring States that have signed aviation agreements with the Union. The tasks performed by EASA cover the whole spectrum of the Union’s aviation safety rules and have an important international component as EASA is legally mandated to cooperate with international actors in order to achieve the highest safety level for EU citizens globally (e.g. EU safety list, authorisation of third country operators, and implementation of technical assistance programming towards third countries). Established in 2002, EASA is composed of more than 800 aviation experts and administrators, and it has 31 Member States (27 EU Member States + Switzerland, Iceland, Norway and Liechtenstein). It has four international offices in Montreal, Washington, Beijing and Singapore. Typically, its budget consists mainly of fees and charges (64%), a subsidy from the Union (23%), earmarked funds (11%) and third country contributions (2%).

— SINGLE MARKET CHAPTER 03 02 — SINGLE MARKET PROGRAMME (cont'd) Remarks Appropriations under this chapter are intended to contribute to the good functioning of the single market for goods and services, including financial services, anti-money laundering and the free movement of capital, and to provide high quality European statistics on all Union policies, as per the purpose of the Programme for the single market, competitiveness of enterprises, including small and medium-sized enterprises, and European statistics (‘Single Market Programme’). In particular, the programme will support the design, implementation and enforcement of the Union legislation underpinning the proper functioning of the single market for goods and services, including financial services, anti-money laundering and the free movement of capital, as well as capacity building, coordination of joint actions between Member States and the Commission, and the international dimension of the internal market. It will also support women’s participation and contribute to the empowerment of all actors of the single market: businesses, citizens including consumers, civil society and public authorities. The Single Market Programme brings together six preceding programmes from different policy areas, notably the grants and contracts part of the Programme for the Competitiveness of Enterprises and small and medium-sized enterprises (COSME), programmes on consumer protection, enhancing the participation of consumers and other end users in financial services policymaking, the development of international financial, auditing and corporate reporting standards, measures to contribute to a high level of health for humans, animals and plants along the food chain and in related areas, and European statistics. In addition, the programme includes several other budgetary lines concerning, in particular market surveillance, company law, contract and extra-contractual law, standardisation and support for competition policy, customs and taxation. The impact assessment showed that one single programme will create synergies contributing to more agile and efficient budgetary spending. In accordance with Articles 21, 22 and 24 of the Financial Regulation, contributions received from third countries (EFTA States pursuant to the Agreement on the European Economic Area, candidate countries and, if applicable, the Western Balkan potential candidates, or other third countries) for participating in Union programmes, and any other assigned revenue, entered in the statement of revenue give rise to the provision of corresponding appropriations and to implementation under this chapter. The related estimated amounts as well as the corresponding article or item of the statement of revenue are indicated, wherever possible, in the relevant budget lines.

These tools are providing a seamless range of services for citizens, business and public authorities, that aim to ensure a better functioning of the internal market in practice. The Your Europe online portal provides citizens and businesses with information on their Union rights in 23 languages of the Union. Since December 2020, Your Europe serves as the entry point for Single Digital Gateway, adding information on national and regional rights and procedures in English and the relevant national languages. Single Digital Gateway is also working towards digitalising the most important administrative procedures for citizens and businesses, including their accessibility cross-border, and establishing a system for the automated cross-border exchange of evidence needed for those procedures. The Digital Product Passport offers a single point of entry for accessing product specific information essential for sustainability and circularity to consumers, businesses and public authorities, promoting transparency and harmonized application of EU rules in the internal market. It supports cooperation between public authorities in the Member States, including customs and market surveillance authorities. Your Europe Advice offers citizens and businesses free of charge tailored advice on their rights in the internal market. SOLVIT is an informal problem-solving network, efficiently dealing with cross-border problems faced by citizens or businesses that result from an incorrect application or transposition of Union legislation by a Member State. SOLVIT also identifies wider issues and reports on such issues as detected in the SOLVIT-IMI database. IMI is a multilingual online application for administrative cooperation between Member States within the internal market, making it easy for authorities to exchange information and work together, on the basis of simple and unified procedures in their own language. The Single Market Scoreboard, showing Member States’ performance in the most relevant policy areas and for internal market governance tools, is being developed to provide an even more complete vision of the internal market. 482/2337 ELI: http://data.europa.eu/eli/budget/2026/72/ojEN OJ L, 26.2.2026 COMMISSION TITLE 03 — SINGLE MARKET CHAPTER 03 02 — SINGLE MARKET PROGRAMME (cont'd) 03 02 01 (cont'd) 03 02 01 02 (cont'd) Assigned revenue (origin, estimated amounts and corresponding article or item of the statement of revenue).

It also ensures the protection of other public interests such as the environment, security and fairness in trade. Under the Single Market Programme, support to market surveillance measures in the Union seeks to strengthen product compliance by providing the right incentives to entrepreneurs, intensifying compliance checks and controls of products at the external borders, and promoting closer cross-border cooperation between market surveillance enforcement authorities. The Single Market Programme also contributes to the consolidation of the existing framework for market surveillance activities, to encourage joint actions of authorities from different Member States, to improve the exchange of information and to promote convergence and closer integration of activities.

Key activities that have proven expertise and success in reaching and supporting SMEs will continue to be central. The Enterprise Europe Network (EEN) will be further strengthened and supported, and will use its expertise to enable SMEs to improve their competitiveness and develop their business in the single market and beyond.

By connecting specialised ecosystems, clusters create new business opportunities for SMEs and integrate them better in European and global strategic value chains. Support will be provided for the development of transnational partnership strategies and the implementation of joint activities, including for channelling direct support to SMEs for encouraging the uptake of advanced technologies, low-carbon solutions, and skills upgrading. The ‘Erasmus for Young Entrepreneurs’ mobility scheme enables new or aspiring entrepreneurs to gain business experience by matching with an experienced entrepreneur from another country and thus allow the strengthening of entrepreneurial talents. It helps tackle unemployment and enables existing SMEs to create jobs and increase their turnover by expanding and internationalising their business.

As regards prevention, the mechanism aims in particular at fostering a shared culture of prevention with activities supporting and promoting Member States’ risk assessment and risk reduction efforts, such as the sharing of good practice, the compilation and dissemination of information from Member States on risk management activities including through cross-border projects, peer reviews, and advisory missions. The mechanism also provides funding to scale-up Member States’ and UCPM Participating States’ disaster risk management strategies and to support the development of projects leveraging disaster risk management investments. Preparedness efforts are supported, in particular, through the pooling of civil protection capacities in the form of the European Civil Protection Pool (ECPP), as well as the development of additional capacities at Union level to complement national efforts (the rescEU reserve and the rescEU transition phase). Preparedness is also improved through the development of Union-wide disaster resilience goals, training, exercises, the exchange of best practices and experts, all under the umbrella of the Union Civil Protection Knowledge Network. The mechanism also supports the study and development of disaster detection and early warning systems, and promotes scientific analysis and expert support. Concerning the international dimension, the mechanism facilitates cooperation with the enlargement countries and countries under the European Neighbourhood Policy in the area of disaster management, through the funding of projects, training and policy dialogues. In relation to response, the mechanism coordinates and finances or co-finances through the Emergency Response Coordination Centre (ERCC) the rapid and efficient deployment of national capacities, of ECPP modules and/or of rescEU, as well as of trained experts and Union civil protection teams for operations in Member States, UCPM Participating States, and in any third country. The mechanism support is financial, operational and facilitates coordination.

The Centre acts in collaboration with competent bodies of the Member States or on its own initiative, through a dedicated network. The mission of the Centre is also to provide science-based recommendations and support in coordinating the response at Union and national levels, as well as at cross-border interregional and regional level, to such threats, where appropriate. In providing such recommendations, the Centre, where necessary, cooperates with Member States and takes into account existing national crisis management plans and the respective circumstances of each Member State. — In the event of other outbreaks of diseases of unknown origin that may spread within or to the Union, the Centre acts on its own initiative until the source of the outbreak is known. In the case of an outbreak that is clearly not of a communicable disease, the Centre acts only in cooperation with the coordinating competent bodies and upon their request, and provides a risk assessment.

Its scientific advice on existing and emerging risks underpins the policies and decisions of risk managers in the Union institutions and Member States with the objective of protecting consumer health. The Authority’s most critical commitment is to provide objective, transparent and independent advice and clear communication grounded in the most up-to-date scientific methodologies, information and data available. The Authority is committed to the core standards of scientific excellence, openness, transparency, independence and responsiveness. The establishment plan of the Authority, as the outgoing Chair of the EU Agencies Network, includes one post to create a position for the Head of the Shared Support Office in Brussels. This is with the aim of promoting efficiency gains and synergies across agencies and with the institutions, so that individual agencies can focus their resources on core tasks. The financing of the post for the Head of the Shared Support Office will be shared between the agencies, which means that no additional funding for the Authority is required in this respect.

MFA is designed for countries geographically, economically and politically close to the Union. These include candidate and potential candidate countries, countries covered by the European Neighbourhood Policy and, in certain circumstances, other third countries. In principle, MFA is only available to countries benefiting from an International Monetary Fund programme. MFA is exceptional in nature and is mobilised on a case-by-case basis to help countries dealing with serious balance-of- payments difficulties. Its objective is to restore a sustainable external financial situation, while encouraging economic adjustments and structural reforms. While MFA can take the form of medium- or long-term loans or grants, or a combination of these, this item only covers the grant element of MFA operations. Appropriations under this item will also be used to cover costs incurred in relation to MFA operations, in particular: (i) costs incurred to conduct operational assessments in the beneficiary countries to obtain reasonable assurances on the functioning of administrative procedures and financial circuits; (ii) costs related to the implementation of the ‘Better Regulation’ guidelines, in particular for ex post evaluations of MFA operations; and (iii) costs to cover comitology requirements. The Commission will inform the European Parliament and the Council regularly of the macro-financial situation of the beneficiary countries and will report extensively on the implementation of MFA on a yearly basis. 970/2337 ELI: http://data.europa.eu/eli/budget/2026/72/ojEN OJ L, 26.2.2026 COMMISSION TITLE 14 — EXTERNAL ACTION CHAPTER 14 20 — PILOT PROJECTS, PREPARATORY ACTIONS, PREROGATIVES AND OTHER ACTIONS (cont'd) 14 20 03 (cont'd) 14 20 03 01 (cont'd) Legal basis Decision (EU) 2017/1565 of the European Parliament and of the Council of 13 September 2017 on providing macro- financial assistance to the Republic of Moldova (OJ L 242, 20.9.2017, p. 14, ELI: http://data.europa.eu/eli/dec/2017/ 1565/oj).

The objective of the EGF is to demonstrate solidarity and promote decent and sustainable employment in the Union by offering assistance to workers who have been dismissed because of major restructuring events. Those events can result in particular from globalisation-related challenges, such as changes in world trade patterns, trade disputes, significant changes in the trade relations of the Union or the composition of the internal market and financial or economic crises, the transition to a low-carbon economy, digitisation or automation. The EGF thereby supports displaced workers in returning to decent and sustainable employment as soon as possible. Emphasis is placed on measures that help the most disadvantaged groups. The maximum annual amount for the EGF is set in the MFF 2021-2027. The methods for entering the appropriations in this reserve and for mobilising the EGF are laid down in point 9 of the Interinstitutional Agreement of 16 December 2020 between the European Parliament, the Council of the European Union and the European Commission on budgetary discipline, on cooperation in budgetary matters and on sound financial management, as well as on new own resources, including a roadmap towards the introduction of new own resources.

The Office was set up as an independent investigative body and must therefore have its own communications strategy. The Office’s work is often too technical to be immediately comprehensible to the general public. The Office has to inform its interlocutors and the public as a whole of its role and tasks. Public perception of the Office’s work is of paramount importance. As a Commission service, the Office also needs to take account of the democratic deficit existing between the Union institutions and the citizens of Europe. The Commission has recognised this deficit and drawn up an action plan to address it. The communications strategy that the Office has developed and continues to implement must demonstrate the Office’s independence.

A data management module and a distributed computing network allow for efficient data processing, ensuring automatic integration of relevant data from existing databases, e.g. EEA, EMODnet, and services, e.g. CMEMS, C3S. Furthermore, the system will allow for assimilation of in-situ measurements. Data analysis, a prediction module and anomaly detection algorithms coupled with machine learning solutions enable near real- time detection of the occurrence of HABs and rapid prediction of their spatial and temporal evolution. 1414/2337 ELI: http://data.europa.eu/eli/budget/2026/72/ojEN OJ L, 26.2.2026 COMMISSION PILOT PROJECTS CHAPTER PP 01 — RESEARCH AND INNOVATION (cont'd) PP 01 25 (cont'd) PP 01 25 02 (cont'd) Additional R&D efforts could target innovative HAB data collection and monitoring solutions. AI-based tools enable identification of regions with high predictions uncertainty, which should be prioritised for monitoring. Incorporation of unmanned vehicles and sensors within the system supports the prediction process and validation by providing high-resolution imagery and high frequency in situ measurements, respectively. An expected Technology Readiness Level 4 (TRL 4) of the system will be assessed by demonstrating the predictive and analytic capabilities of the system in retrospective mode. Afterwards, the system's performance will be tested during a 6-month period in relevant environment in selected regions within Members State, aiming for TRL 6. Additionally to what was done in the HAB-Hub Stage 1, HAB-Hub Stage 2 will add new functionalities and eventually expanding to include further monitored areas, particularly those with other characteristics. The aim of the pilot project is to test new concepts and verify them in the pilot instance. In particular, the following tasks should be carried out as part of the pilot project: — the prediction and simulation of changes and developing the implementation of AI algorithms. — extensive analysis, including statistical analysis with the aim of identifying areas potentially at risk and indicating areas for obtaining additional data (measurements). — the putting in place of an alert system for the early warning of hazards. — the putting in place of a system of early identification of potential threats in areas of increased risk, involving the special monitoring of such areas, implementation of both automatic and manual solutions for additional ones, including "on-demand", and data acquisition (e.g. using drones, robots). — the monitoring and analysis of small waters (rivers, lakes) — the preparation of data supply mechanisms by all interested parties, including volunteers (citizen science) — building an archive available to all interested institutions and citizens.

Hyperloop is currently the only potential transport mode under development allowing the transport of passengers and goods with low energy usage and without any pollution (i.e. GHG emissions and noise). In order for the trans-European transport network to keep up with innovative technological developments and deployments, sustainable emerging technologies that enhance and ease the transport and mobility of passengers and freight should be encouraged. At various test sites the technical feasibility has been largely demonstrated. The next step is to show that the technology is suitable to guarantee a high level of safety and comfort for passengers, which is crucial to ensure public acceptance and to address future transportation needs. The Union has already made substantial investments in hyperloop R&D, but now we enter the next phase of developing safety standards for which there is no specific mandate or experience. This could be the final hurdle before actual deployment becomes possible. Therefore, the specific objective of this pilot project is to demonstrate that passengers can be safely transported and evacuated in the event of incidents through further research and testing, which in turn can contribute to the development of Union safety standards. In this way lessons can be learned, which could contribute to the development of concrete Union safety standards. In turn, this has the potential to create the basis for a new European transport mode. 1424/2337 ELI: http://data.europa.eu/eli/budget/2026/72/ojEN OJ L, 26.2.2026 COMMISSION PILOT PROJECTS CHAPTER PP 02 — EUROPEAN STRATEGIC INVESTMENTS (cont'd) PP 02 25 (cont'd) PP 02 25 02 Pilot project — Creation of a comprehensive dynamic digital timetable for rail services in the Union Figures (Differentiated appropriations) 2026 appropriations 2025 appropriations 2024 out-turn Commitments Payments Commitments Payments p.m. 275 000 750 000 187 500 Remarks This appropriation is intended to cover commitments remaining to be settled from previous years under the pilot project. There exists no comprehensive, digitised and dynamic timetable for rail journeys across the Union. This pilot project should conduct a feasibility study to assess whether and how such a system could be established and made public. Cross-border rail travel in particular is at times difficult to navigate, with problems surrounding ticketing and information besides others, such as scheduling coordination. Currently, individual infrastructure managers define timetables including cross-border routes and this information is available to the public, but is generally not provided in an interoperable and standardised way or compiled. There is no centralised online availability of such aggregated information, which limits the rail sector integration. Overcoming past reluctance to share data, thereby gradually moving towards a permanent dynamic system in terms of, inter alia, timetables and real-time train running and train forecast information, ticket fares, would be a practical way to enable the culmination of the Single European Railway Area, to the benefit of all the stakeholders and most importantly of passengers. In order to ensure the integration of data at Union level from National Access Points (NAPs) established by Member States under Commission Delegated Regulation (EU) 2017/1926 (MMTIS Regulation) and ensure its quality for cross-border services in particular, this Pilot Project should look at synergies with existing projects and should allow for the re-use of information from existing systems established at sector level. To that end, there should be a transition from fee-based sector databases to a publicly available database. Hence, in order to create a tool for passengers and operators alike, such a system should be established by the Commission, with appropriate support from the European Union Agency for Railways (ERA) . Ultimately, it would also help with digital platforms aiming to provide prospective travellers with information on the most direct routes, timing and so on. Eventually, pricing could be also added by these operators and platforms, as well as further elements within the logic of multimodal digital mobility services, once this common digital dynamic timetable is put in place. Having such real-time information on train running and train forecast in a comprehensive and integrated manner with planned timetable information is therefore an enabler of all these services of high added value for passengers, as well as operators and infrastructure managers themselves, hence helping with efforts to promote multimodal travel in line with the Commission's Sustainable and Smart Mobility Strategy. The Pilot Project should build on the efficient implementation of already existing legal obligations under MMTIS Regulation and the TSIs for telematics applications under the Rail Interoperability Directive (EU) 2016/797. Furthermore, it should provide for an appropriate mechanism for future maintenance ensuring a robust and resilient system.

Context/Problem: There are three million truck drivers in Europe, moving 75 % Europe’s total freight volume carried by land. Despite multiple European regulations to improve industry standards and working conditions, including remuneration, the sector is not able to attract more professionals and it faces a critical shortage of workers. With 380 000-425 000 unfilled positions in 2021 and an aging workforce, this shortage is projected to reach 745 000 by 2028. The shortage is attributed to difficult working conditions, long periods spent away from home, long waiting times at loading and unloading points, poor quality parking areas, lack of resting facilities, no access to or low quality of sanitary facilities on the road and at loading and /unloading sites, and a negative image of the industry. In addition, the lack of professional recognition and of respect for professional drivers combined with the weak career development opportunities and lack of support discourages young people (making up only 7 % of truck drivers) and women (making up only 3,2 % of truck drivers) from entering the sector. Current regulatory and soft measures to improve working conditions and address the shortage have proven insufficient, necessitating an innovative approach. Truck drivers can themselves contribute to improving their working conditions and job attractiveness if they are empowered to do so and are provided with the right tools. Solution: The pilot project aims to provide such tool to truck drivers, in the form of a mobile app in which drivers would rate important points on their route, places where they do work other than driving, where they use various services or take a rest. The aim of such an app is to improve the working conditions and public perception of the trucking profession by leveraging driver feedback to rate and rank points of interest along trucking routes. To achieve this, the app should be designed to incentivise positive change within the industry. The rating could cover at least the following categories: (i) waiting time, (ii) accessibility and cleanliness of toilets for truck drivers, (iii) availability and cleanliness of showers for truck drivers, (iv) availability of parking for trucks, (v) staff friendliness, (vi) facilities for female truckdrivers. The app targets three user groups: — professional drivers - the primary users who register, provide ratings, and access detailed information of various points of interest (PoIs); 1426/2337 ELI: http://data.europa.eu/eli/budget/2026/72/ojEN OJ L, 26.2.2026 COMMISSION PILOT PROJECTS CHAPTER PP 02 — EUROPEAN STRATEGIC INVESTMENTS (cont'd) PP 02 25 (cont'd) PP 02 25 03 (cont'd) — administrators of PoIs – those who manage PoI profiles, update information, e.g., opening hours, type of facilities, site maps, internal rules, and address negative feedback to improve their ranking; — other users, such as warehouse workers, dispatchers, and other industry stakeholders who can access general information and comment on ratings. The app should have a user-friendly interface, including simple design, large icons, and multi-language support to cater to a diverse driver population. Rating system should be based on clear criteria with visual aids, e.g., sliders, icons, to facilitate quick and intuitive assessments. The app should integrate geolocation based on GPS data to suggest and verify PoI locations, simplifying the rating process. The app should also allow drivers to provide detailed feedback by adding written comments and uploading photos to illustrate their ratings. The app should enable future integration with telematics providers to optimise routes and enhance communication between drivers and PoI administrators. PoI profiles should be visible to drivers and industry stakeholders, displaying ratings and driver-generated content. High-ranked PoIs should benefit from increased visibility and potential economic advantages, creating a powerful motivation for businesses to improve their practices and attract more drivers. Justification for funding: The pilot project requires an estimated EUR 600 000 for development, maintenance and promotion offering significant return on investment by addressing a critical industry challenge. The basic version of the app could be developed, tested and deployed within 12 months. The pilot project presents a timely, impactful, and cost-effective solution. By empowering drivers and promoting transparency, this pilot project has the potential to transform the road transport sector and ensure its sustainability.

The definition of the criteria and the establishment of the scheme would need to be done in close collaboration with the relevant industry and authority stakeholders. The criteria should meet cybersecurity expectations of authorities, be achievable for drone manufactures and the drones reasonably affordable for the buyers. The scheme should be voluntary and not introduce unnecessary costs for the industry or public authorities. Depending on the outcome of the pilot project, a follow up action could be considered to support the setting up of such labelling scheme.

The outcome will include a legal brief and recommendations. BACKGROUND AND RATIONALE: Maritime transport and traffic arecritical for the Union, both as an independent mode of transport and for trade: over 80 % of Union imports and exports of goods are carried by sea. It plays an increasingly strategic role in environmental sustainability, military mobility, and the security and resilience of supply chains. 1428/2337 ELI: http://data.europa.eu/eli/budget/2026/72/ojEN OJ L, 26.2.2026 COMMISSION PILOT PROJECTS CHAPTER PP 02 — EUROPEAN STRATEGIC INVESTMENTS (cont'd) PP 02 26 (cont'd) PP 02 26 01 (cont'd) Given its international nature, maritime transport is primarily governed by international law. However, the current geopolitical context in various regions of the world has revealed potential governance gaps, particularly regarding the balance of legal rights and obligations incumbent on flag, port and coastal States under UNCLOS. These gaps question the effectiveness of existing enforcement mechanisms in addressing significant risks such as unlawful maritime or trade activities (e.g. the circumvention of sanctions), abuse of the principle of innocent passage and broader geopolitical tensions. A key emerging threat is the growing presence of the so-called ‘dark’ or ‘shadow’ fleet, which heightens maritime safety risks. Acts of sabotage against critical infrastructure further underscore the need for stronger governance frameworks and enforcement capacity. This initiative aims to assess and recommend legal measures to strengthen maritime safety, security and Union strategic interest, by improving monitoring, surveillance, compliance, enforcement and information-sharing at national, Union and international levels. This pilot projectsupports DG MOVE’s mandate to enhance maritime safety, security, sustainability and situational awareness at sea. It focuses on identifying legal and operational gaps that affect the Union’s capacity to monitor, assess, enforce and respond to maritime threats, particularly in international waters surrounding the Union. While building on existing tools such as Directive 2002/59/EC on vessel traffic monitoring and information systems (VTMIS Directive), the pilot project will examine how broader regulatory, information-sharing and cooperation mechanisms could be adapted or expanded to enable more effective maritime oversight, enforcement, and coordinated Union responses to evolving geopolitical and security challenges. SCOPE OF THE PILOT PROJECT: 1. Mapping Governance Gaps: — the identification of key legal, institutional, and operational gaps in the governance of waters surrounding the Union, focusing on UNCLOS, alongside existing Union law and instruments as well as relevant international conventions; — the analysis of the relevant provisions of UNCLOS and other applicable frameworks to determine the Union and Member State legal rights and obligations as coastal or port states within different maritime zones, particularly in relation to non- compliant or bad-faith flag states; — an examination of legal possibilities and constraints for the Union and its Member States to take enforcement action, including against non-compliant actors operating beyond Union jurisdiction. 2. Development of a Union Legal Action Plan: — to assess the above-mentioned governance gaps and propose legal options and recommendations to address them, ensuring consistency with UNCLOS and other relevant international and Union legal frameworks, and considering best practices from Member States and international bodies. — to identify mechanisms to strengthen the legal framework supporting Union-level coordination and enforcement in international waters, including enhanced maritime surveillance, information-sharing, transparency measures and mechanisms for coordinated Union-response.

These obstacles make cross-border train operations more complex for both freight and passenger services than in other transport modes. A major challenge continues to be the requirement for train drivers to demonstrate at least a B1-level proficiency in the languages of the countries in which they are operating. This complicates seamless cross-border operations and often results in additional stops at borders to switch train drivers. For this reason, this pilot project aims to support the development and testing of pan-European language tools - particularly AI-based technologies - to break down language barriers. The purpose of this tool is to facilitate operating communication between train drivers and signallers, thereby enhancing efficiency in cross-border rail operations. In addition, this pilot project will propose requirements for digital solutions supporting the driver-signaller communication. This pilot project may also support digital solutions for communication between operators (IM-IM, IM-RU, RU-RU) in accordance with the Technical Specifications for Interoperability for Telematics Applications (TAP and TAF TSI), which will eventually be replaced by the Telematics TSI. The proposed scope of this pilot project is the entire Union, focusing on cross-border rail connecting countries with different language requirements. This project will support the development and implementation of cross-border TEN-T railway infrastructure projects, such as the flagship project of the Brenner Base Tunnel, scheduled to open in 2032, connecting Austria and Italy. This pilot project will begin with a comprehensive assessment of the needs, demands, and challenges faced by all relevant stakeholders for both passenger and freight rail services and establish a detailed list of issues, which will then be examined to identify and develop effective solutions addressing the language barrier and the lack of a TSI-compatible interpretation system of operating communication. This common framework will be used to test new digital communication solutions in real cross- border rail operations, possibly on the route between Munich and Verona via the Brenner. To help improve rail operations across Europe, the method and test results will be clearly documented. Crucially, the pilot project will consider the results of Rail Net Europe’s language programme and other activities related to digital communication in railway operations. 1430/2337 ELI: http://data.europa.eu/eli/budget/2026/72/ojEN OJ L, 26.2.2026 COMMISSION PILOT PROJECTS CHAPTER PP 02 — EUROPEAN STRATEGIC INVESTMENTS (cont'd) PP 02 26 (cont'd) PP 02 26 02 (cont'd) The overarching goal of this pilot project is to contribute to a truly borderless Single European Railway Area. This pilot project should serve as a model for improving interoperability in rail transport by addressing one of the most persistent challenges: the language barrier in cross-border operations. Its aim is to enable broader Union-wide implementation of digital operating communication and foster a more integrated rail network. PP 02 26 03 Pilot project — Integrated Surveillance mechanism: Regional Cable hubs Figures (Differentiated appropriations) 2026 appropriations 2025 appropriations 2024 out-turn Commitments Payments 4 000 000 1 000 000 Remarks Communication cables connect several Member States to one another, link islands to the Union mainland, and connect the Union to the rest of the world, carrying 99 % of inter-continental internet traffic. Subsea electricity cables facilitate the integration of Member States' electricity markets, strengthen their security of supply, and deliver offshore renewable energy to the mainland. There are increasing concerns among European governments over the incidents affecting submarine cables. Europe is currently on high alert after a series of outages to cables and pipelines. In February 2025, President von der Leyen introduced the Joint Communication to strengthen the security and resilience of submarine cables. The main message is that the security of the Union's submarine cable infrastructure must be significantly enhanced. The Joint communication presents strong actions in a whole resilience cycle approach: prevent, detect, respond and repair, and deter. Today in the Union there is no capacity to effectively monitor all the dimensions of the threats surrounding submarine cables and create a single and integrated situational picture at sea basin level. When an incident occurs, the Union must increase its capacity to respond in a coordinated way and in solidarity with the Member State most affected. To be able to issue early alerts, it is essential to make several systems work together, fusing data available at Union and national level. This pilot project would assess the feasibility of setting up a platform for communication and early warning mechanism among the Member States to coordinate through the whole resilience cycle. It would also explore and test concepts such as coordination models, detection approaches, or response mechanisms through a range of preparatory and exploratory activities with an aim for Member States to enhance the security of undersea cables. ELI: http://data.europa.eu/eli/budget/2026/72/oj 1431/2337EN OJ L, 26.2.2026 COMMISSION PILOT PROJECTS CHAPTER PP 02 — EUROPEAN STRATEGIC INVESTMENTS (cont'd) PP 02 26 (cont'd) PP 02 26 03 (cont'd) The pilot project of Regional Cable hubs should include the following elements: meaningfully map existing capacities, identify technology or cooperation needs, outline possible governance models, or explore cost and procurement modalities, including in areas such as surveillance tools, incident-reporting mechanisms, partnerships with private or defence actors, or coordination platforms. Given the fact that the cyber-attacks, including on the critical undersea infrastructure will continue into the future, it is important to explore a more coordinated response. At this initial stage, the pilot project would fund testing of concepts such as coordination models, detection approaches, or response mechanisms through a range of preparatory and exploratory activities focused on setting up a structured communication and response platform for Regional Cable hubs - one per sea basin.

In order to operationalise the power of the Digital Services Act (DSA), a single interface, in the form of a chatbot, will give users the power to understand their rights and obligations, as well the best methodology to communicate with and, where necessary, report intermediaries, as well as to retrieve information from the various transparency databases created by the DSA. It would also serve as a valuable tool for collecting data, to allow disinformation campaigns to be identified and neutralised more quickly. Like many other parts of the Union Acquis, the DSA provides comprehensive rights to users, such as individuals and businesses. The DSA accords these rights in relation to online intermediaries in general, with additional obligations for very large online platforms and search engines (VLOPs and VLOSEs). These rights include the right to report third-party content, to receive a statement of reasons when restrictions are imposed on their own content, as well as a right to be protected from systemic risks caused by VLOPs and VLOSEs. The fight against disinformation, where the content is usually not usually illegal, is particularly challenging. Recipients of the service need support in understanding what should be reported and how. Policy-makers and regulators need data quickly on trends, such as voter suppression during election periods or failures of content moderation in particular languages. An AI-powered chatbot would help users to: — assess if the content they are reporting is a breach of the intermediary's rules or of Union law; — formulate a complaint about breaches of the law or terms of service in a way that is most understandable for the intermediary; — escalate their complaint if the intermediary's response is not satisfactory. For NGOs in the anti-disinformation community and regulators, data would be generated on: — how many complaints were made; — how quickly they were actioned; — patterns that could help identify foreign or coordinated campaigns; — particular types of campaigns, such as voter suppression. 1438/2337 ELI: http://data.europa.eu/eli/budget/2026/72/ojEN OJ L, 26.2.2026 COMMISSION PILOT PROJECTS CHAPTER PP 03 — SINGLE MARKET (cont'd) PP 03 25 (cont'd) PP 03 25 01 (cont'd) As a pilot project, this would serve as a basis to expand knowledge and application of the real benefits Union legislation for people in the Union, in relation to this one instrument.

PP 03 25 02 Pilot project — Mapping underground reservoirs of natural hydrogen in Europe and developing the necessary legislation for sustainable production in the framework of the EU's Climate Law, the EU strategy on energy system integration and the European Economic Security Strategy and European Energy Sovereignty Figures (Differentiated appropriations) 2026 appropriations 2025 appropriations 2024 out-turn Commitments Payments Commitments Payments p.m. 750 000 3 000 000 750 000 Remarks This appropriation is intended to cover commitments remaining to be settled from previous years under the pilot project. Natural hydrogen, also known as white or geological hydrogen is a valuable clean energy resource naturally occurring in underground reservoirs. Unlike any other category of hydrogen currently on the market, natural hydrogen require very limited energy to be produced and could be sustainably extracted from the ground. It is produced 24/7, requires no storage and it has a production cost in the range of EUR 0,5-1 which would make it the most competitive hydrogen in the market. It has the lowest footprint of any source of hydrogen and no fresh water is required. Natural hydrogen can revolutionise the clean energy transition. There are over 1 million tonnes of recoverable volume just in one single structure found in Aragón, Northern Spain that would satisfy 10% of Spain's current usage for more than 20 years. In terms of regulatory framework, only France, since 2022, and Poland, since October 2023 have legislation in place for natural hydrogen in the Union with Spain currently working on it. Mali, Australia and the USA are leading the development of natural hydrogen projects worldwide with a milestone, USD 91m invested by Bill Gates in the company Koloma to drill for carbon-free hydrogen that is continuously generated underground. Most energy agencies worldwide now recognised the importance of natural hydrogen and its potential role in the future energy mix. The International Energy Agency (IEA) is currently working on a TID (Task In Definition) in natural hydrogen to accelerate its development. The IAE´s latest report related to hydrogen production published in 2023 (Global Hydrogen Review, September 2023) included natural hydrogen for the first time. It acknowledges two projects in Europe. In the USA, the Advanced Research Projects Agency–Energy (ARPA-E) has provided financing of USD 20 million to two initiatives focused on Low-Cost, Low-Greenhouse Gas Emissions Hydrogen Production. ELI: http://data.europa.eu/eli/budget/2026/72/oj 1439/2337EN OJ L, 26.2.2026 COMMISSION PILOT PROJECTS CHAPTER PP 03 — SINGLE MARKET (cont'd) PP 03 25 (cont'd) PP 03 25 02 (cont'd) The natural hydrogen economy is opening new sustainable commercial opportunities for the traditional oil and gas companies aiming to decarbonise their portfolio of projects and shift to new sustainable projects. Natural hydrogen should be part of the energy mix, replicating and scaling up successful business models and methodology in the Union, accelerating the development of interregional investments, and reinforcing cohesion. Natural hydrogen will contribute to innovation in rural and remote areas where the reservoirs of natural hydrogen are placed, building and putting new industrial and economic ecosystems in the Union that are non-existent at the moment and reinforcing repopulation with high skills professionals. Natural hydrogen can revolutionise the transition to clean energy. The earth continuously generates hydrogen and can form significant subsurface accumulations as a natural process without consuming fresh water. Consequently, natural hydrogen has the lowest carbon footprint, with 50 times lower CO2 than grey hydrogen, which currently provides over 95% of the world’s natural hydrogen and can complement the low-carbon industrial production of hydrogen and contribute to securing the energy supply and avoiding the supply’s intermittency. Its potential is already scientifically demonstrated with limited commercial demonstrations existing in Mali, and Australia. European public support is needed to define an appropriate regulatory framework in the Union, identified resources and implement pilots in European countries where substantial resources occur. There is a need to determine how natural hydrogen existing in the Union could contribute to the European Hydrogen Strategy and European energy mix. Furthermore, developing a natural hydrogen economy will empower a new generation of high skilled professionals wholly aligned with the Commission’s Green Skills Programme (European Climate Pact), where climate action is already providing the jobs and opportunities of the future. A natural hydrogen-based economy in Europe will contribute to the generation of highly skilled employment and the transformation of the oil and gas industry workforce to a new generation of Green Deal workforce. Europe is considered a promising continent for discovering natural hydrogen deposits. Natural hydrogen reservoirs have been identified in Spain, France, Poland, Hungary, Germany, Ukraine and Albania. A recent research targeting various countries worldwide suggests the presence of multiple viable plays and cost-effective exploitable production sites available within several Member States. The development and utilisation of natural hydrogen reserves present a unique opportunity to accelerate the energy transition and hydrogen supply supporting Europe´s sovereignty and security. By capitalising on the estimated abundance of natural hydrogen within Europe’s geological formations, the Union could enhance its energy security, reduce emissions, and pave the way for a cleaner and more sustainable future for European citizens and industry. For regions with natural hydrogen locations, the accessibility of competitive hydrogen will accelerate the attraction of new industrial investment with greenfield projects. Therefore, proper identification, mapping and production at a commercial scale will be an excellent opportunity to develop an innovative European ecosystem involving multiple regions where natural hydrogen is located and where the gas industry and research are relevant. 1440/2337 ELI: http://data.europa.eu/eli/budget/2026/72/ojEN OJ L, 26.2.2026 COMMISSION PILOT PROJECTS CHAPTER PP 03 — SINGLE MARKET (cont'd) PP 03 25 (cont'd) PP 03 25 03 Pilot project — Net-Zero AI4Permitting Figures (Differentiated appropriations) 2026 appropriations 2025 appropriations 2024 out-turn Commitments Payments Commitments Payments 2 500 000 3 625 000 5 000 000 1 250 000 Remarks This pilot project will offer financial support to public authorities, primarily local authorities, introducing AI-based systems, or exceptionally systems based on other digital technologies, to manage the new requirements for streamlined permitting under the Net-Zero Industry Act. The support will consist of both direct financial support and mutual learning by involved authorities to manage the back-end work needed for permitting. There will be a particular focus on Net-Zero Acceleration Valleys in coal regions in transition and environmental aspects of permits. As a second phase to this project, the appropriations allocated under the 2026 budget will be used to top-up projects selected under the first phase launched under the 2025 budget. This top-up will primarily be used, where necessary and appropriate, to further involve regional and national authorities in the pilot project to ensure that all authorities involved in permitting within the Valleys align their digital infrastructure and increase interoperability. A secondary use of the top-up may be to make a larger budget available for the development and acquisition of the AI-based systems where the original budget appears to have been too low. A small part of the top-up may be used to facilitate interaction and sharing good practices between participating projects and promoting the results to other countries.

The award highlights excellence in addressing the environmental, economic, and social dimensions of sustainability, specifically emphasising effective responses to overtourism, seasonality, climate change, and shifting tourism trends. ELI: http://data.europa.eu/eli/budget/2026/72/oj 1441/2337EN OJ L, 26.2.2026 COMMISSION PILOT PROJECTS CHAPTER PP 03 — SINGLE MARKET (cont'd) PP 03 26 (cont'd) PP 03 26 01 (cont'd) The pilot project involves creating clear, evidence-centric evaluation criteria, carrying out a comprehensive communication campaign, and establishing an expert jury for assessing nominated destinations. This pilot project is aligned with the European Capital and Green Pioneer of Smart Tourism (ECOSTA) annual awards but offers a novel element in highlighting the importance of governance. A single European winner is going to be selected among the participants to the ECOSTA initiative, and a special prize will be awarded by the Parliament to a destination showing outstanding achievements in adopting governance models (strategic planning, measuring and monitoring sustainability, use of indicators and standards, evidence based governance, involvement of local communities, innovative procedures, organisational and institutional framework), beyond tourism management. This award would serve as an incentive for destinations to strengthen their governance practices and would spotlight those demonstrating exceptional achievements in this area. The award will be given to sustainable destinations at the local or regional level, thereby encouraging and promoting balanced regional development. The winners will be celebrated in an award ceremony hosted by the Parliament, promoting the Parliament's active role in sustainable tourism. The Commission is encouraged to ensure the pilot project's sustainability beyond initial funding and implement it to foster implementation of Transition Pathway for Tourism and promote policies. The special prize will be awarded in parallel with the ECOSTA awards and announced according to the same timeline. The pilot will run for two years, starting in 2026, covering the selection of the 2028 and 2029 winners. This coordination will allow for shared processes and optimised dissemination opportunities. Eligibility Criteria: 1. Evidence Based Destination Management: — Use of Data: The destination must demonstrate how it uses collected and analysed data for decision-making, which may include developing strategies to reduce CO emissions, improve waste management, support the local economy, preserve cultural heritage, etc. 2 — Collaborative Governance Model: The destination must demonstrate how it includes various stakeholders in the process of data collection, usage, and decision- making - such as local communities, tourism organisations, research institutions, and other relevant actors. 2. Environmental Criteria: — CO Emission Reduction: 2 The destination must show concrete measures for reducing carbon dioxide emissions, including the use of renewable energy sources and implementation of energy-efficient technologies. — Preservation of Natural Resources: The destination must have programs for conserving water, soil, and biodiversity, including the protection of natural habitats and ecosystems. — Waste Management: The destination must have systems in place for recycling and waste reduction, including programs for reducing plastic and other measures that contribute to lowering tourism’s ecological footprint. 1442/2337 ELI: http://data.europa.eu/eli/budget/2026/72/ojEN OJ L, 26.2.2026 COMMISSION PILOT PROJECTS CHAPTER PP 03 — SINGLE MARKET (cont'd) PP 03 26 (cont'd) PP 03 26 01 (cont'd) 3. Economic Criteria: — Support for the Local Economy: The destination must demonstrate how it supports local entrepreneurs and the economy, including the use of local products and services. — Sustainable Development: The destination must have sustainable development strategies that include long-term plans for economic growth without harming the environment and society. 4. Social Criteria: — Culture and Tradition: The destination must preserve and promote local culture and tradition, including support for cultural events and preservation of cultural heritage. — Support for Local Population: The destination must demonstrate that tourism does not negatively impact the lives of local residents, including satisfaction with tourism development in the area. The budget involved in designing this award will cover: — defining the brand for the special prize; — defining the exact selection and award criteria; — contracting the independent experts to evaluate applications and offer a shortlist to the European Jury; — designing and producing the trophy for the 2028 and 2029 winners; — supporting the winners as part of the prize (winners are offered 12 months of public relations and communication support by a specialised international public relations agency to increase the visibility of their destination and of the award); — covering all reimbursable expenses for the winners related to travelling, participating to trade fairs, international events, workshops, award ceremony, press trips as part of the award. Note: The budget of this pilot project will not be used to cover the organisation of the award ceremony hosted by Parliament.

This aligns with the Commission’s communication on Savings and Investments Union Strategy of 19th March 2025 (SIU Communication). It seeks to explore novel approaches to address a critical gap that cannot currently be addressed by existing Union programmes. The objective of this pilot project is to develop innovative approaches that extend beyond the scope of the current Single Market Programme, Erasmus+, and the European Social Fund+, and to test the feasibility and usefulness of such approaches which could be further developed through an extension or revision of these programmes under the next MFF. The pilot project would fill a gap by targeting the improvement of the investment capabilities of Union citizens, thereby focusing on enhancing the investment ‘savviness’ of the general population and increasing retail participation in capital markets. No existing Union programmes specifically focus on increasing the participation of Union citizens in capital markets and ensuring that those who wish to participate are empowered to make sound and informed decisions. — Erasmus+ focuses on improving education and cooperation in educational matters, including lifelong learning and youth engagement. Although Erasmus+ supports educational initiatives, it does not target financial literacy related to investment skills. Its broad educational agenda lacks a specialised focus on equipping citizens with the knowledge and skills required to navigate and invest in capital markets confidently. — The European Social Fund+ aims to promote social inclusion and supports vulnerable groups such as low-income and unemployed individuals. While ESF+ addresses social and economic inclusion, it does not provide for targeted initiatives for developing investment savviness among the general population. Its focus on social support and employment does not extend to fostering an understanding of investment products or the benefits of participating in capital markets. — Finally, the SMP primarily addresses consumer education, ensuring that citizens are informed about their rights and responsibilities as consumers of financial services. While the SMP fosters consumer awareness, it does not aim to enhance citizens' capabilities to actively participate in capital markets as investors. This pilot project is uniquely positioned to fill the gap by offering targeted awareness-raising and guidance on investment literacy. Unlike existing programmes, it focuses on enhancing citizens' understanding of investment opportunities, risks, and benefits, promoting active participation in capital markets. It would focus on issues such as the costs and performance of financial products, guidance and the role of intermediaries. The pilot project would also test innovative ways to explain the risks and rewards of investing (including financial risks, scams and fraud, etc) and thereby encourage consumers to invest responsibly and participate in capital markets taking into consideration the complexity and increased digitalisation of financial markets and products (e.g. crypto assets, non-fungible tokens, etc.). 1444/2337 ELI: http://data.europa.eu/eli/budget/2026/72/ojEN OJ L, 26.2.2026 COMMISSION PILOT PROJECTS CHAPTER PP 03 — SINGLE MARKET (cont'd) PP 03 26 (cont'd) PP 03 26 02 (cont'd) The pilot project would target specific national contexts, and therefore not mandate transnational cooperation, thereby going beyond the scope of other Commission programmes such as ESF + and Erasmus + (including its social innovation track ‘EASI’). In addition to directly supporting the improvement of investment financial literacy, the pilot project could also test ways to increase the impact of organisations working towards the protection of retail investors, including consumer organisations, investors or shareholder associations, or financial authorities. The innovative approach could be ensured by the following initiatives: 1. Investment awareness-raising and guidance: — developing tailored educational programmes, initiatives and websites focusing on investment knowledge, including basic financial products, the role of intermediaries, and understanding risks and rewards associated with investments; — emphasising digital financial products like crypto assets and non-fungible tokens to adapt to the increasingly digital landscape of financial markets. 2. Investment literacy ambassadors: — establishing and maintaining a network of well-qualified ‘investment literacy ambassadors’ across all 27 Member States; these public figures would advocate for investment literacy, and engage with the public through various channels, including mainstream media (TV, radio, newspapers, etc.); — supporting ambassadors with resources to cover their pro bono work, including communication and awareness-raising activities, such the preparation of thematic materials on investment literacy and awareness used in their advocacy work. 3. Community engagement — encouraging collaboration with and support for Member State authorities, municipalities consumer organisations, as well as employer and worker representatives to ensure tailored investment literacy and awareness programmes and investment guidance; this would exclude transnational requirements to focus on localised impact and relevance.

Geospatial and location information are crucial for informed social, economic, and environmental decision-making. There is a set of core reference geospatial data from official sources which are primary datasets. These cannot be derived from other datasets and are important because they support information across all themes and domains. The European Strategy for Data and the Common European Data Spaces are forming an interconnected single market for data, and all the sectorial data spaces being developed, (e.g. health, environment, agriculture, energy, transport, security, emergency services, the SDGs), need to be underpinned by core geospatial data. Member States, through their national mapping, cadastral and land registry authorities, are mandated to collect and maintain trusted and accurate national core reference geospatial information. This is crucial for developing tools and services to support public policies, common data spaces and the digital transition in Europe. Coordinating relevant policies is key to delivering core geospatial data at European level. Seamless, harmonised, compatible and interoperable datasets are an effective use and reuse of public sector information for the benefit of the Union and its citizens. ELI: http://data.europa.eu/eli/budget/2026/72/oj 1447/2337EN OJ L, 26.2.2026 COMMISSION PILOT PROJECTS CHAPTER PP 04 — SPACE (cont'd) PP 04 25 (cont'd) PP 04 25 01 (cont'd) Although geospatial and location information are crucial for a wide range of policies, including the EU’s Digital Decade and Green Deal, the management of geospatial, especially core reference geospatial data, is fragmented and scattered across various directives, rules and regulations. These include INSPIRE, Open Data and PSI Directive, Green Deal package, and the new GreenData4All initiative. As well as across various Directorates-General and Agencies, such as DG-Environment, DG-Connect, EEA, and Eurostat. This fragmentation and lack of a single body within the Commission responsible for geospatial policy and data, causes challenges and obstacles, preventing the Union and its citizens from maximising the benefits from geospatial data collected from official sources. To address these issues, this project proposes a study that would analyse and recommend how the Commission can ensure an effective and harmonised policy for core reference geospatial information from official sources across the Union. The main objectives of this study are to: — research the existing (and planned) policy frameworks, directives, rules and regulations which impact/include core reference geospatial data from official sources; — conduct a study amongst the well-established community of national (public sector) producers of core reference geospatial data, to understand the gaps in existing European legislation that currently fails to effectively address core geospatial data from official sources; — highlight the challenges, barriers and obstacles in current policies that are blocking effective and harmonised management of geospatial information from official sources across the Union; — clearly demonstrate the benefits of a harmonised geospatial policy framework for core reference geospatial information, and how this links with the Europe’s digital future; — develop a road map towards developing comprehensive governance for core geospatial data from official sources.

DG-DEFIS together with EUSPA (the European Union Agency for the Space Programme) is analysing the use cases where EU Space Data can contribute to fisheries control activities, under the umbrella of a memorandum of understanding with EFCA. Two main use cases have been identified: — the use of Galileo and Copernicus services for fishing vessels monitoring. Positions reported by vessels will be authenticated with data provided by Galileo data. Copernicus images will be used to verify the data in the area and time of coverage; — the use of Galileo and Copernicus services for patrolling Unmanned Aerial Systems (UAS or drones). Images taken by drones will be stamped with time and position authenticated using Galileo data. Copernicus and Galileo services will be used to support the safety case for the drones operations. The pilot project will be focused on: — attendance at existing working groups addressing solutions for fishing vessels and drones, including different public/ private platforms and interviewing key industrial stakeholders, such as drone operators, fishing vessels associations, and relevant Maritime and Aviation authorities for search and rescue; — the consolidation of the user requirements and definition of equipment for fishing vessels and patrolling drones; — the consolidation of concept of operations and positioning performance and authentication needs for fisheries control; — the identification of the main challenges to be overcome to ensure safe operation and resilient positioning; — the identification and analysis of the technical and regulatory barriers (e.g. lack of standards and regulation), industry value chain and new business models that could emerge; — the identification of the possible actions at Member State, regional and local level to boost business development, and support SMEs to deliver EU Space based solutions to provide solutions for the Union’s fishing fleet; — the prototyping of onboard equipment that uses Galileo signals to address the main needs not covered so far by existing equipment, with focus on the use of Galileo authentication services; — the implementation of several demonstrations for fishing vessels and patrolling drones, involving different Member States. The aim is to demonstrate feasibility and added value for the sector, validating the operational concept with the participation of Aviation and Maritime users and competent authorities from different countries. The drones and vessels in the demonstration will use Galileo authentication service and the specific messages encoded; — contributing to draft new standards defining minimum operational requirements for GNSS and VMS position information in fishing vessels and the necessary tests required to verify the performance compliance in support of future regulatory initiatives in Europe. ELI: http://data.europa.eu/eli/budget/2026/72/oj 1449/2337EN OJ L, 26.2.2026 COMMISSION PILOT PROJECTS CHAPTER PP 04 — SPACE (cont'd) PP 04 26 2026 PP 04 26 01 Pilot project — EU Search and Rescue (SAR) 2.0 Figures (Differentiated appropriations) 2026 appropriations 2025 appropriations 2024 out-turn Commitments Payments 1 000 000 250 000 Remarks The European Union Search and Rescue (SAR)/Galileo service, a major contributor to the worldwide public SAR service Cospas- Sarsat, has a long track record of success in detecting and locating people in distress. However, the rise of private companies who offer or may offer private emergency alerting notifications poses both challenges and opportunities for SAR/Galileo and the Cospas-Sarsat system. The current geopolitical context and the management structure of Cospas-Sarsat (USA, CAN, RUS, FR) highlight the need to explore new approaches and broaden the perspective on SAR/Galileo services. Private companies are increasingly interfacing with Rescue Coordination Centres (RCCs), which are often public entities or non-profit organizations, to provide alerting services. However, this multiplication of inputs generates hurdles for RCCs in managing these alerts, underscoring the necessity of a more coordinated approach. Moreover, private actors may not offer long-term stability, as they can be shut down for economic or political reasons, which could compromise the continuity or quality/efficiency of SAR services. In response to these evolution trends, the Commission should propose an evolutive approach to SAR services. Firstly, it will maintain its commitment to Cospas-Sarsat at the current level, ensuring legacy support while introducing new features like Remote Beacon Activation (RBA), Two Way Communication (TWC), etc. in a complementary (to Cospas-Sarsat) set-up. This approach would enable the Union to continue supporting the existing Cospas-Sarsat system while avoiding significant investments needed to promote and standardise evolutions within the Cospas-Sarsat system. In parallel, the Commission should explore new concepts for a truly European Search and Rescue service, in collaboration with the Member States (and states associated to the Galileo program). This service would be global in scope and could incorporate new features, such as enhanced multilateral (many to many) communication channels, improved distress detection and localization, and expanded user segments. By developing a comprehensive EU SAR ecosystem, building on existing Union initiatives and programs such as SAR/Galileo and SafeSeaNet, the Union can facilitate the seamless integration of diverse emergency notification services, striking a balance between cooperation with private actors and the exploration of innovative solutions. This endeavour aims to benefit Union citizens and SAR responders, ultimately saving lives and reducing the impact of crises. The Union should also foster a culture of collaboration by sharing its new SAR services with reliable, like-minded international partners, to ensure a coordinated and effective global SAR response. 1450/2337 ELI: http://data.europa.eu/eli/budget/2026/72/ojEN OJ L, 26.2.2026 COMMISSION PILOT PROJECTS CHAPTER PP 04 — SPACE (cont'd) PP 04 26 (cont'd) PP 04 26 02 Pilot project — GNSS Radio-Frequency Interference Monitoring - Protect EU space critical assets Figures (Differentiated appropriations) 2026 appropriations 2025 appropriations 2024 out-turn Commitments Payments 5 000 000 1 250 000 Remarks Radio Frequency Interference (RFI) affecting Global Navigation Satellite Systems (GNSS), such as Galileo, is a growing concern that impacts daily operations in critical infrastructures and services, including civil aviation. The increasing reliance on GNSS for positioning, navigation, and timing (PNT) applications has created a need for effective RFI monitoring and mitigation strategies. An EU GNSS Radio Frequency Interference Monitoring Service has been called by the Internal Security Strategy (ISS) and the Preparedness Union Strategy (PUS). The primary objective of this pilot project is to design and develop a prototype that integrates and analyses Radio Frequency Interference (RFI)-related metrics from a diverse range of data sources, including both open-source and commercial datasets. This comprehensive approach will provide a unified view of Global Navigation Satellite Systems (GNSS) interferences across Europe, leveraging data from various sources. A crucial component of the prototype will be the application of advanced big-data analytics and machine-learning algorithms to fuse and analyse the diverse data streams from multiple sources. By harnessing the power of big-data and machine-learning, the prototype will provide a robust and scalable framework for RFI monitoring, enabling the development of predictive models and proactive mitigation strategies. The pilot project will pave the way for the establishment of a comprehensive, Europe-wide RFI monitoring system, enhancing the reliability of critical infrastructures and services that rely on GNSS and, ultimately, contributing to a safer, more secure, and more resilient Union.

In December 2023, the Commission submitted a revised proposal for a Regulation on Facilitating Cross-border Solutions (COM(2023) 790 final; 2018/0198 (COD)). Negotiations on this proposal are ongoing. The proposal sets out a procedure to facilitate the resolution of cross-border obstacles hampering the establishment or functioning of infrastructure necessary for private or public activities, or any cross-border public service provided that it contributes to economic, social and territorial cohesion in the cross-border territory. Pursuant to the text of the proposal for a Regulation, Member States may establish one or more cross-border coordination points at national or regional level, or jointly with a neighbouring country or countries. This pilot project proposes to make available a sufficient amount of funds from the Union budget to allow willing Member States to establish cross-border coordination points at national or regional level, or jointly with one or more neighbouring Member States. Depending on the outcome or on the status of negotiations on the proposal for a Regulation, the pilot project could also be used by Member States to finance the creation or maintaining of other coordination structures facilitating cross-border solutions to administrative or legal barriers, in synergy with existing initiatives at Union or national level, such as ‘b-solutions’. By channelling resources from the Union budget to Member States willing to establish cross-border coordination points or other structures, a fourfold objective could be achieved: — regardless of the outcome of negotiations on the proposal for a Regulation, the pilot project could support Member States in setting up cross-border coordination points or other coordination structures, with a view to bolster the provision of this new type of joint service to initiators and to foster better cooperation governance. In turn, this would facilitate cross border understanding and enhance cooperation to resolve cross border obstacles; — in the event of final adoption of the abovementioned proposal for a Regulation, the pilot project would ensure the inflow of funds to Member States willingly deciding to implement parts of the proposal for a Regulation pending its entry into force, or pending the entry into force of some of its provisions; — in light of the previous indent, this pilot project could provide a reliable estimation of the amount of financing needed for the correct implementation of the proposal for a Regulation, and possibly guide the Commission and the co-legislators on the earmarking of sufficient funds when outlining and negotiating the new Multiannual Financial Framework. 1454/2337 ELI: http://data.europa.eu/eli/budget/2026/72/ojEN OJ L, 26.2.2026 COMMISSION PILOT PROJECTS CHAPTER PP 05 — REGIONAL DEVELOPMENT AND COHESION (cont'd) PP 05 25 (cont'd) PP 05 25 01 (cont'd) — should the proposal for a Regulation be adopted and enter into force, this pilot project would decrease administrative burden for public authorities at regional or Member State level, in particular as regards the establishment of cross-border coordination points, or the obligation for Member States and the Commission to store all cross-border files received in a public register. The tasks of the cross-border coordination points established on a voluntary basis by Member States wishing to draw resources from this pilot project would fall within the meaning of Article 5, paragraphs 1, 2, and 4, of the proposal for a Regulation. In addition, the Member States involved could agree to empower the cross-border coordination point or points to use jointly the cross-border facilitation tool, and namely to start a consultation with competent authorities in the Member States involved when a cross-border obstacle is notified, or to explore the resort of other Union initiatives such as ‘b-solutions’.

Expected Outcome: Is democracy sustainable in the age of distrust and polarisation sustainable? The rise of hate speech, misinformation and filter bubbles are sowing the seed of discontent and social exclusion. The dynamics seems very much an avalanche impossible to stop, with small but vocal fringe groups injecting extreme views in the public discourse. For that reason, a better prevention and monitoring of extreme online political discourse should be welcomed, while preserving the freedom of speech. This can be done by mapping the current public opinion discourse on social media around salient political issues. By checking the language elected representatives use, we could map the political discourse landscape and see what the most polarising terms and issues are. Using sentiment analysis, we could test whether the language used by elected representatives provokes or attacks other representatives and monitor the extent of smearing campaign in the EP and selected national parliaments. Drawing from that, several EU language versions can be drafted and adapted, so to cover a sample of Member States, perhaps those with larger recorded polarisation. Scope: 1. Create the machine learning model. APOLLO: Analysis of Political Opinion Language by Learning Online; 2. Train the model in languages different from English (up to 5); 3. Plan a thorough web scrape of main social media (YT comments, X, Instagram, Facebook, TikTok, etc), paying for the scraping when necessary; 4. Run an online survey to collect respondents and identify their political preferences and whether they follow some politicians or public figures on social media, and find those who engage on social media the most. Potentially, field the survey on relevant subReddits dealing with European politics. Reddit could give an interesting insight on fringe communities too, identifying ‘superspreaders’ of misinformation; ELI: http://data.europa.eu/eli/budget/2026/72/oj 1469/2337EN OJ L, 26.2.2026 COMMISSION PILOT PROJECTS CHAPTER PP 07 — INVESTING IN PEOPLE, SOCIAL COHESION AND VALUES (cont'd) PP 07 25 (cont'd) PP 07 25 01 (cont'd) 5. Within the scope of GDPR rules, scrape the activity of elected representatives (always anonymised) on social media, as well as comments and replies and on popular topics, scraping comments and replies under established media (e.g. The Irish Times, Politico, Il Corriere, Le Monde, etc.); 6. By merging the two datasets, finding correlations between political language, politicians followed and feeling of social exclusion, controlling for socioeconomic variables such as economic and job insecurity. PP 07 25 02 Pilot project — Preparatory work for counselling structures to support mobile migrant labour Figures (Differentiated appropriations) 2026 appropriations 2025 appropriations 2024 out-turn Commitments Payments Commitments Payments 1 200 000 600 000 1 200 000 300 000 Remarks This appropriation is intended to cover commitments remaining to be settled from previous years under the pilot project. Mobile migrant labour has become a structural segment of the national labour markets in all Member States. It is expected that this phenomenon will continue to grow. Against the background of skills and labour shortages and targeted recruitment policies, there is evidence that the mobility of third-country nationals working temporarily in the Union will also increase. Often active in essential sectors, mobile migrant workers are key to the proper functioning of the internal market. At the same time, however, workers who are posted or take up employment for a short period represent a very vulnerable group of workers and their situation is often precarious. In view of the complexity of transnational labour situations and due to a lack of language skills and knowledge of applicable rules, it is not easy for these workers to enjoy and defend their rights on their own. Precarious working conditions and structural labour exploitation prevent integration into the labour market, undermine future recruitment efforts and fair competition. The European Labour Authority has launched a variety of measures and campaigns to draw attention to particularly affected sectors and employment groups, such as seasonal workers, professional drivers and the growing group of posted third-country nationals. However, the European Labour Authority cannot offer individualised support for those target groups. Trade union-related transnational counselling and support structures targeting mobile migrant labour can therefore make an important contribution to the promotion of fair labour mobility and migration as enshrined in the Union's social acquis and confirmed in the 2024 interinstitutional La Hulpe Declaration on the future of the European Pillar of Social Rights. Transnational counselling services not only give individual help to workers, but also provide important insights into the situation of mobile migrant labour in risk sectors, developments in the European labour market and new forms of employment and mobility patterns. Moreover, individual information and counselling of workers are important complements to enforcement activities, such as labour inspections. 1470/2337 ELI: http://data.europa.eu/eli/budget/2026/72/ojEN OJ L, 26.2.2026 COMMISSION PILOT PROJECTS CHAPTER PP 07 — INVESTING IN PEOPLE, SOCIAL COHESION AND VALUES (cont'd) PP 07 25 (cont'd) PP 07 25 02 (cont'd) The subject of the pilot project is scientific research on the situation of mobile migrant labour and the impact of assisting counselling structures on these target groups. Special focus should be placed on risk sectors such as international road transport, seasonal work in horeca and agriculture, the construction sector and the increasing group of posted third-country nationals. A key element of the study should be the monitoring and evaluation of existing counselling structures in countries of origin and countries of destination. In order to ensure the representativeness of the monitoring and allow for the evaluation to formulate operational recommendations, a significant part of the pilot project will be to run a trade union-related transnational counselling network (at least seven countries in the first year, to be gradually expanded). The network should also include 1-3 candidate countries or other third countries within Europe such as Bosnia-Herzegovina, Albania or Kosovo. Main target groups of the counselling are short-term mobile migrant workers. The counselling centres should be supported in their development, counselling work and transnational networking through coordination. The establishment of new counselling centres is to be supported by targeted capacity building measures. The scientific study should include country-specific research and interviews with experts at national and Union level on the situation of mobile migrant labour in risk sectors and of posted third-country nationals. As part of the research existing counselling services for the target groups should be identified and (sector-specific) needs for counselling and support determined. Regular exchange with the ELA and representatives of the affected sectors will take place throughout the duration of the pilot project. The outcome of the pilot project will provide an analysis of the situation and challenges experienced by mobile migrant labour in risk sectors and posted third-country nationals in the European labour market, to be concretely addressed in parallel through the practical implementation and expansion of a transnational counselling network. In addition, an evaluation of the existing counselling services for the target groups and a mapping of the (sector-specific) needs for counselling services will be developed. Based on the findings of the study, recommendations will be formulated for the preparation of a dedicated initiative for the long- term funding and establishment of a European counselling network for mobile migrant labour. The results of the pilot project will be presented and discussed at a final conference at Union level. In order to continuously benefit from the results of the pilot project, interim results will be presented and discussed at a mid-project conference.

ELI: http://data.europa.eu/eli/budget/2026/72/oj 1471/2337EN OJ L, 26.2.2026 COMMISSION PILOT PROJECTS CHAPTER PP 07 — INVESTING IN PEOPLE, SOCIAL COHESION AND VALUES (cont'd) PP 07 25 (cont'd) PP 07 25 03 (cont'd) Objective: The pilot project seeks to analyse the potential impact of AI on European labour markets and compare the implications of exposure to AI for different labour market groups. It also seeks to develop a new measure of occupational exposure to AI that takes into account whether occupations are likely to be replaced (automated) or complemented by AI. This measure will be used to compare the implications of AI for different regions, sectors and Member States. Furthermore, it will also be used to study the potential impact of AI on job quality, wages and productivity. The pilot project will contribute to existing knowledge by developing a novel taxonomy for analysing the potential impacts of AI on labour markets and economies as a whole. Currently, most of the analyses on the impact of AI focus on the United States or subsets of selected countries while comparative EU research is currently missing. Therefore, the pilot project will seek to fill this gap by developing indicators for comparing the impacts of AI across the Member States. Special emphasis will be placed on reproducibility and transferability of the methodology to other potential areas of interest such as greening of occupations. As AI is a rapidly growing technology, the pilot project will also seek to ensure that the indicators can be easily reproduced and updated when new data are released. This would provide a valuable resource for policymakers both at the national and supranational levels. The rise of AI is one of the most important developments of recent decades with the current policy and academic literature predicting that AI will trigger profound changes in working lives. Therefore, having up-to-date evidence on the labour market impacts of AI technologies is of core importance for effective policy making. The analysis will also feed into European and national policy debates maximising potential gains stemming from the AI revolution while also limiting potential negative impacts for workers and economies. Scope/Research questions: Which regions, sectors and Member States are more likely to be exposed to AI? What are the impacts of AI on the employment opportunities of different labour market subgroups? Which occupations will be automated, and which will be complemented by AI? What are the potential impacts of AI on working conditions? What are the potential effects of AI on wages and wage inequality in the Union? How does exposure to AI affect labour market transitions? What is the expected impact of AI on labour productivity? What policies are necessary to address the impacts of AI in terms of inequalities, skills and job quality? Overall policy relevance More broadly, AI and especially large language models (LLMs) are fast evolving technologies and will impact large swathes of the European labour markets. Currently, more than 70% of Union employment is in the service sector, which is the sector most likely to be impacted by the advent of LLMs. Therefore, understanding both the individual and the structural implications of these new technologies is of key importance for ensuring a fair and inclusive European economy. 1472/2337 ELI: http://data.europa.eu/eli/budget/2026/72/ojEN OJ L, 26.2.2026 COMMISSION PILOT PROJECTS CHAPTER PP 07 — INVESTING IN PEOPLE, SOCIAL COHESION AND VALUES (cont'd) PP 07 25 (cont'd) PP 07 25 03 (cont'd) Added value for wider research community The pilot project will deliver a novel comparable methodology and taxonomy of exposure to AI that will be made available to the broader policy and academic community. It will also provide new evidence on the potential impact of AI which will inform current and future debates. Aggregate quantitative indicators on exposure to AI based on national and supranational data sources will be made available to the broader research community. Data from the qualitative and experimental analyses will also be made available through case studies and methodological reports. Project results are expected to contribute to the following outcomes: — developing a novel taxonomy of AI exposure that is adapted to the Union labour market and allows for comparisons across regions; sectors and Member States; — providing an updated analysis of AI on occupations including an analysis of different labour market subgroups; — updating existing methodologies that analyse the impacts of AI and publish reproducible analyses and source code; — providing an analysis of the expected impacts of AI in terms of inequality and productivity; Expected impact: The pilot project will generate novel high-quality knowledge which will be used to inform ongoing policy debates on the impact of AI on European societies. It will also foster the diffusion of knowledge by developing new methodologies, using new techniques for studying AI and publishing open-source code. Methodology: The pilot project will rely on a mixed method approach that will leverage information from European datasets (EU-LFS, EWCS, AMECO) as well as national sources. The latter could allow for a finer grained (firm-level) analysis of potential impacts of AI. The starting point of the empirical analysis will be to develop a new taxonomy for occupations that can be impacted by AI using (O*NET data) in conjunction with novel approaches that distinguish between jobs at risk of being automated or complemented by AI. The measure of exposure to AI will combine current approaches in the literature that use the O*NET database to measure the correspondence between AI and human skills with information on the social content of and skills required in occupations. This will contribute to a more fine-grained understanding of the potential impact of AI on the labour market. In addition, the analysis will be complemented by case studies focusing on the impact of selected AI technologies on job quality and productivity. The pilot project will also use online experiments to isolate the potential productivity effects brought about by the use of different AI technologies. Outline of timeline: The total project duration will be 3 years and will be divided into three work packages. The first will focus on developing the exposure measure and on the comparison between different groups of interest. Given the importance of this aspect of the pilot project, it is expected that the analysis will be updated on a regular basis throughout the lifetime of the pilot project. ELI: http://data.europa.eu/eli/budget/2026/72/oj 1473/2337EN OJ L, 26.2.2026 COMMISSION PILOT PROJECTS CHAPTER PP 07 — INVESTING IN PEOPLE, SOCIAL COHESION AND VALUES (cont'd) PP 07 25 (cont'd) PP 07 25 03 (cont'd) The second work package will consist of fieldwork done at company level, which will commence six months into the project. Given the difficulty of securing company case studies and running the fieldwork, this part of the pilot project is expected to last 1,5 years. Finally, the third work package will focus on gathering evidence on the impacts of AI on productivity through experimental approaches. This work package is expected to commence at the end of the first year and have a total duration of 1 year. PP 07 26 2026 PP 07 26 01 Pilot project — Safeguarding Europe’s Born-digital Heritage Figures (Differentiated appropriations) 2026 appropriations 2025 appropriations 2024 out-turn Commitments Payments 2 000 000 500 000 Remarks Protection of and access to Europe’s cultural heritage has been reaffirmed as a Union priority by Commissioner Micallef and will be part of the wider Culture Compass promised by the Commission. Born-digital heritage is part of Europe’s Cultural Heritage, representing a vibrant and growing part of the wider historical record, not least given the opportunities it offers for new and diverse voices to emerge and be heard. For the purpose of this pilot project, born-digital heritage are materials originally created in digital formats and which do not have a physical equivalent. These can take the form of texts, images and/or sounds. Key examples of born-digital heritage include eBooks, electronic journals, online media, blogs, websites, video games and more, all of which can have significant value for future researchers. Also, for the purpose of this pilot project, heritage institutions are archives, libraries, museums and other educational, cultural and research organizations. There has been extensive focus – in all of law, funding and cooperation – to provide stronger access to digitised copies of physical cultural heritage. The Digital Single Market (DSM) Directive (2019/790) includes provisions on digitisation and on access to out of commerce works, the Recommendation on a common European data space for cultural heritage ((EU) 2021/1970) and the related work of the Europeana Initiative in general aim to encourage digitisation and digital preservation and facilitate the free flow of cultural heritage data. Moreover, the Cultural Heritage Cloud will develop specific digital collaborative tools for the cultural heritage sector. However, this is less the case when it comes to safeguarding born- digital materials. Typically, these are not available on servers of heritage institutions but are rather accessed remotely, and so do not fall under current preservation provisions. Many works are extremely vulnerable to simply disappearing. The concern is that only a very small share of the cultural, research, news and other materials that are shaping our world today will even survive to make it into the public domain. 1474/2337 ELI: http://data.europa.eu/eli/budget/2026/72/ojEN OJ L, 26.2.2026 COMMISSION PILOT PROJECTS CHAPTER PP 07 — INVESTING IN PEOPLE, SOCIAL COHESION AND VALUES (cont'd) PP 07 26 (cont'd) PP 07 26 01 (cont'd) Current provisions in Union law do not provide clarity for Europe’s heritage institutions about the possibilities of making preservation copies of material that can be licenced or otherwise legally accessed, but not acquired. For example, Article 6 of the DSM Directive only allows for the preservation of works in an institution’s permanent collection, which excludes those only accessed on a temporary basis. Progress towards adapting legal deposit laws for the digital age or enabling web harvesting is uneven, although there is experimentation underway, e.g. the work of the International Internet Preservation Coalition. The need for a comprehensive approach to preservation is clear. Accidents, bankruptcies, format obsolescence and simply the deletion of materials that may have important historical value but no economic worth to the holder all have an impact. Recent history shows that unless digital content is safeguarded independently, it can all too easily disappear due to political pressures unless appropriate measures are taken. Concern about the loss of our born-digital heritage has already long given rise to talk of a 21st century black hole or a digital dark age. This pilot project would work with experts in the data space for cultural heritage and take advantage of available data and frameworks like Europeana, as well as relevant technical and legal knowledge of relevant stakeholders, inter alia libraries and archives. In the context of wider work around the Culture Compass, and ahead of the discussions on preservation and access of born-digital materials, this pilot project could contribute to understanding the state of play and possible way forward in line with the following considerations: – assessing the share of Europe’s born-digital cultural heritage that is being preserved today and how this compares with what (in the eyes of professionals) needs to be preserved; – mapping the state of law around the preservation of born-digital (licenced) content today, and access to this taking into account existing frameworks and ongoing initiatives dealing with preservation of and access to cultural heritage, also taking account of existing frameworks and initiatives as above outlined; – mapping other (non-legislative) factors that may be influencing practices around the preservation of born-digital heritage and access to this; – establishing suggestions for legislative and non-legislative measures which could allow for optimal practices across Europe. PP 07 26 02 Pilot project — Smart Social Economy Model in Tourism (Long-Distance Trails) Figures (Differentiated appropriations) 2026 appropriations 2025 appropriations 2024 out-turn Commitments Payments 1 500 000 375 000 ELI: http://data.europa.eu/eli/budget/2026/72/oj 1475/2337EN OJ L, 26.2.2026 COMMISSION PILOT PROJECTS CHAPTER PP 07 — INVESTING IN PEOPLE, SOCIAL COHESION AND VALUES (cont'd) PP 07 26 (cont'd) PP 07 26 02 (cont'd) Remarks This pilot project aims to explore the viability and social adoption of actions designed to integrate social economy principles into tourism while simultaneously promoting local communities, European values and traditions, and sustainable businesses, and reducing the gap between urban and rural areas. The pilot project will take place in various regions across Europe, including sites of exceptional cultural and natural heritage, also aiming to increase the capacity of territorial communities at European level, while using the experience of existing long-distance tourist trails. More specifically, the pilot project looks in a systemic and forward-looking way to use the tourism potential of regions by promoting sustainable tourism and social economy principles in alignment with societal needs, technological advancements and Union strategies. While long-distance trails already exist within the Union, their principles and capacity have not been systematically integrated into Union policy frameworks and funds, nor tailored to smart social economy models in a structured and replicable way. European long-distance tourist trails exist in different countries across the Union, including Spain (Camino de Santiago), Portugal (Rota Vicentina), Italy (Via Francigena), Greece (Menalon Trail), Romania (Via Transilvanica) and Slovenia (Juliana Trail). Within this context, this pilot project aims to explore and test the economic and social potential of various long-distance trail models across different Union regions. This pilot project aims to develop the pan-European dimension of the social economy through an integrated, bottom-up approach, based on real-life, measurable community experiences of long-distance tourist trails. The pilot project centres on value chains that retain economic benefits within rural communities, fostering inclusive growth. By aligning rural hospitality providers with sustainable practices, the pilot project strengthens value chains to ensure transparency, social impact, and long- term community resilience. Designed as a pan-European blueprint, the model integrates Union frameworks and facilitates transnational knowledge exchange to replicate success across Europe. To achieve its objectives, the pilot project will develop digital solutions to assess the feasibility of a future pan-European platform and mobile application designed to serve all European regions connected by long-distance tourist trails. These solutions will leverage real-life experiences of the social economy model by fostering collaboration among local communities, social enterprises and sustainable tourism actors. In addition, the pilot project will identify and leverage successful grassroots initiatives, knowledge, and social economy networks already in place within specific regions. These will be scaled and replicated in other areas through a structured process of knowledge exchange, peer learning, and capacity-building. The pilot project will provide relevant users with comprehensive trail information, real-time updates, community-driven content, trainings, Union competitions, investments opportunities, events and tools to support the development of a pan- European smart social economic model. Lessons learned from this pilot project will support the platform’s expansion to other European long-distance trails and regions, ensuring a scalable, bottom-up approach rooted in local development. To strengthen this capacity at the European level, the platform will provide local-trail capacity-building trainings, and trial a Union Award for the best long-distance tourist trails, activities, and projects. The pilot project will thus support rural social entrepreneurs through training, peer-to-peer learning, and mentoring initiatives. By combining training, local pilot actions, knowledge transfer, and digital innovation, the pilot project empowers communities to design inclusive tourism services, strengthen social enterprises, and drive sustainable local economic growth. 1476/2337 ELI: http://data.europa.eu/eli/budget/2026/72/ojEN OJ L, 26.2.2026 COMMISSION PILOT PROJECTS CHAPTER PP 07 — INVESTING IN PEOPLE, SOCIAL COHESION AND VALUES (cont'd) PP 07 26 (cont'd) PP 07 26 02 (cont'd) To achieve the mentioned objectives, the pilot project will conduct qualitative and quantitative research, launch and implement a pilot across the different Union regions, create a European digital platform and mobile application, trial a Union Award for the best long-distance tourist trail, activities and projects. — Phase 1: Research. During this phase, qualitative and quantitative research will be conducted to assess the needs of European long-distance tourist trails, but also strengths and weaknesses from a smart social economy perspective. This will be complemented by a collection of storytelling pieces from local citizens and stakeholders, and an analysis of already existing social economy practices among them. — Phase 2: Launch and implement pilot actions across Union regions, using the available local capacity. This phase will test local approaches to community engagement, social enterprise support, and tourism services in a real-world setting. — Phase 3: Digital Platform & App Development. This phase will develop digital pilot tools to test the feasibility and relevance of a future pan-European platform and mobile application designed to serve all European regions connected by long-distance tourist trails, including local-trail capacity-building trainings. — Phase 4: Promotion & Community Engagement. A Union Award will be trialled for the best long-distance tourist trails, activities, and projects to promote the platform’s expansion to other European long-distance trails and regions. What sets this pilot project apart is its unique focus on the use and development of long-distance tourist trails as catalysts for sustainable and inclusive development of tourism and improving the quality of life in communities, social innovation, and cultural exchange. By integrating these trails into a broader European digital and community-driven framework, the pilot project taps into their untapped potential to connect remote regions, stimulate local economies, and promote environmentally responsible and sustainable tourism.

Big Tech platforms such as Meta, X, and TikTok determine what appears in our news feeds, namely content that is attention-grabbing and keeps you glued to your screen in order to serve ads, making it more profitable for them. As a result, our timelines are flooded with hate, malice, agitation, false body images, social polarization, and disinformation. Taking into account that social media is the number one news source for many young people, and ever-growing for the population at large, a few monopoly platforms are threatening our democracies. In order to respond to those threats the Commission is working on a European Democracy Shield to safeguard democratic processes and institutions from external threats in an increasingly complex information environment. At the same time, this dependence on Big Tech platforms is harmful for Europe’s security and competitiveness. ELI: http://data.europa.eu/eli/budget/2026/72/oj 1477/2337EN OJ L, 26.2.2026 COMMISSION PILOT PROJECTS CHAPTER PP 07 — INVESTING IN PEOPLE, SOCIAL COHESION AND VALUES (cont'd) PP 07 26 (cont'd) PP 07 26 03 (cont'd) Young people are disproportionately affected by the harms of these mainstream social media platforms as a result of design choices such as the use of addictive techniques and algorithmic manipulation. In its comprehensive approach to mental health, the Union emphasises that young people are particularly vulnerable to negative digital influences. Recent studies show that young people on average spend seven hours a day online and one in three young people experience mental health problems, such as anxiety and depression, caused or exacerbated by algorithmic pressure, online bullying and lack of privacy. Neurodivergent young people, in particular, are more likely to experience Problematic Internet Use, putting them more at risk of online harms. Yet young people often lack any real agency or input into how these platforms are designed. By actively involving young people in the design of alternative social media, their user needs can be better understood and these challenges can therefore be addressed, contribute to shaping safer online spaces, and lay the groundwork for digital platforms that genuinely prioritise mental health and democratic values. In recent years, the groundwork has been laid for the provision of essential digital services where public values and strategic autonomy can be safeguarded. European regulation adopted in recent years seeks to curb Big Tech’s power and open the market for new entrants. However, this alone is not enough. The call from the public for alternatives to mainstream social media has been growing in recent years and months. Deploying such alternatives can further boost this demand and support a more widespread understanding that Europe’s dependence on Big Tech is not inevitable and that technological sovereignty is achievable. This can create fertile soil for the development of European mid-tech alternatives that can boost Europe’s competitiveness. Over the last 15 years, alternatives like the Fediverse and AT protocol have emerged: decentralised platforms that use open standards and protocols. In the Fediverse, no single party sets the rules; each organisation or community running its own server (node) is a co-owner of the ecosystem. These decentralised platforms promise a less extractive, more community-driven experience and potentially safer, healthier social media spaces. There are clear opportunities, but challenges prevail to promote widespread adoption. Through the ‘fediversity’ grants under Next Generation Internet, the Commission has been actively supporting the development of the Fediverse. This support so far was focused on the underlying infrastructure. This pilot project is intended to contribute to overcoming the various obstacles and support the development of a user-faced application. Objective: The pilot project aims to create and test a proof of concept for a Fediverse-based/AT Protocol-based social media platform that: 1. centres mental health, designed to minimise negative psychological effects and foster positive interactions; 2. ensures digital autonomy by building on top of ethical and human-centred technology; 3. deepens understanding of user needs through cocreation by young people from diverse backgrounds; 4. encourages the development of alternative Fediverse-based/AT Protocol-based social media in compliance with Union regulation by showcasing the feasibility of developing alternatives. 1478/2337 ELI: http://data.europa.eu/eli/budget/2026/72/ojEN OJ L, 26.2.2026 COMMISSION PILOT PROJECTS CHAPTER PP 07 — INVESTING IN PEOPLE, SOCIAL COHESION AND VALUES (cont'd) PP 07 26 (cont'd) PP 07 26 03 (cont'd) Approach: 1. participatory design will be led by young people, with students from diverse educational institutions and levels invited to contribute their experience and their expertise in design, architecture, privacy, and cybersecurity. Relevant civil society organizations will provide guidance and support; 2. the platform will adopt open protocols like ActivityPub or AT Protocol to ensure compatibility with existing Fediverse infrastructure to enable scalability; 3. young people will develop prototypes in co-creation sessions, guided by experts from the fields of technology, media literacy, design, and societal innovation with a focus on features that support well-being and mental health is central to this phase. neurologists, psychologists and other relevant healthcare professionals will be consulted; 4. the Proof of Concept will be tested by young people across various Member States, with a focus on safety, user-friendliness, and mental health, feedback will be continuously integrated, refining the platform’s design; 5. all findings and methodologies are shared publicly, allowing others to replicate or build upon the pilot project’s outcomes. Expected Outcomes : 1. proof of Concept for a Fediverse-based/AT Protocol-based social media platform that upholds long-term user satisfaction, well-being and societal benefits; 2. better understanding of the user needs of young people in safe and inclusive social media; 3. youth Empowerment through hands-on digital innovation and active participation in media platform design; 4. policy Recommendations for shaping social media spaces, the development of an interoperable and competitive social media landscape, supporting mental health, and safeguarding democratic values.

PP 08 26 2026 PP 08 26 01 Pilot project — “Back to the Roots”: Strengthening Food Access and Food Democracy Initiatives across the EU Figures (Differentiated appropriations) 2026 appropriations 2025 appropriations 2024 out-turn Commitments Payments 1 500 000 375 000 Remarks As stated in the ‘Vision for Agriculture and Food’ presented by Commissioner Hansen, ‘Consumers’ relationship with food has evolved. Food is more processed, eating habits are changing and supply chains have gotten longer and more complex. At the same time, food affordability remains a major concern, especially for low-income households. While the link between farming, food and territory has weakened, changing societal expectations with regard to food hold opportunities for the sector. Therefore, going back to the “roots’ and re-establishing the link between food, territory, seasonality, cultures and local traditions is very important.” To rise up to this challenge, the pilot project identifies ‘knowledge’ and ‘capacity’ gaps as regards the possibility for consumers (‘eaters’) to access food and to engage in their food environments. Such gaps are an issue when it comes to improving farmers' incomes in the agri-food value chain by giving access to products sold at a fair price to a wider section of the population. This pilot project thus proposes a comprehensive approach with complementing actions: an inventory of food accessibility across the Union, the creation of a Food Policy Councils network and the development of an exchange Platform for the network. A. Inventory of Food Accessibility and Food Environments in the Union While the Common Agricultural Policy and other Union schemes contribute to the availability and affordability of food in the Union, some citizens still struggle to access nutritious and healthy food. This is not due to a lack of production, which is sufficient at Union level, but either for affordability reasons, of for questions related to physical access and food environments. Currently, there is no harmonised Union-level data on the physical accessibility of food, and existing statistics mainly cover affordability at Member State level. This makes it difficult to identify regional disparities or to design targeted policies to improve access to healthy diets. Since an ongoing study is already being carried out by DG AGRI focusing on food affordability, this Project will help fill the knowledge gap on food accessibility beyond affordability, by: 1. mapping regional disparities in food accessibility, including physical access to food; ELI: http://data.europa.eu/eli/budget/2026/72/oj 1483/2337EN OJ L, 26.2.2026 COMMISSION PILOT PROJECTS CHAPTER PP 08 — AGRICULTURE AND MARITIME POLICY (cont'd) PP 08 26 (cont'd) PP 08 26 01 (cont'd) 2. developing standardised tools and indicators to assess food environments and their impact on access, complementing existing Union data on availability and affordability; 3. highlighting policy gaps and propose recommendations for a stronger Union-wide approach to food accessibility, particularly for vulnerable groups, without duplicating the ongoing DG AGRI study on affordability. B. Establishment of an Union-Wide Network of Local ‘Food Policy Councils’ Improving food access requires local engagement and collective governance of food systems. This pilot project recognises the important role customers have to play in the transition, by harnessing at local level the transformative power of dialogue between all actors along the food chain, from producers to consumers (‘eaters’). Food democracy initiatives have started to emerge across Europe, either publicly funded, such as those created in the wake of the Milan Urban Food Policy Pact, or grassroots, such as local funds experimenting with Food Social Security. The pilot project will foster local engagement in food system governance, ensuring that citizens can better understand and influence their food environments, by: 1. identifying and mapping existing ‘Food Policy Councils’ and similar initiatives, assessing their governance models and impact on food environments; 2. providing financial and technical support for the creation of new local councils where none exists, ensuring that these councils include diverse stakeholders, particularly ‘eaters’ from food-insecure households, alongside farmers and small retailers; 3. developing a Union-level digital platform to facilitate collaboration between Food Policy Councils/local food democracy initiatives, and policymakers, enabling knowledge sharing and dissemination of best practices across different Member States.

Pilot project PP 01 24 ‘Europe-wide solutions for free and open source software use by public services in the Union (FOSSEPS)’ not only significantly advanced the idea of Europe-wide cooperation on open source, but has done so via three concrete actions, (i) building a first Europe-wide Open Source Solutions Catalogue for public administrations (ii) identifying critical software used by European public services, and (iii) forming a European public services user group on open source. ELI: http://data.europa.eu/eli/budget/2026/72/oj 1513/2337EN OJ L, 26.2.2026 COMMISSION PREPARATORY ACTIONS CHAPTER PA 01 — RESEARCH AND INNOVATION (cont'd) PA 01 24 (cont'd) PA 01 24 01 (cont'd) Our Europe-wide capacity to strategically use and operationally deploy free and open source software (FOSS) is a cornerstone of strategies to achieve digital sovereignty, increased competitiveness of digital markets, innovation, and cybersecurity. The initial pilot project has been a resounding success. There is unfinished work and further interest in each of the three project pillars. The three actions listed below build on earlier achievements and propose key actions that the preparatory action would take to centrally and simultaneously meet the demand from European public services. (i) European Applications Catalogue Already proven benefits of savings in time and costs caused by re-using open source applications listed in national catalogues point to massive savings from having a fully functioning European Open Source Solutions Catalogue. The initial European Applications Catalogue minimal viable product created by the pilot project will need to be greatly expanded by the preparatory action to allow for more Member States’ data to be ingested, whilst still being reflected in their own national catalogues (a federated data-collection approach). In fact, many Member States do not yet have catalogues of open source software solutions, and those who do have technical difficulties federating their work. More work is needed to accommodate different data standards used by Member States, also to help Member States to create more mature entries to their national catalogues, and in turn the European Applications Catalogue. This preparatory action will aim to get open source solution information from at least 14 Member States (50 %) via standards work, canvassing, better communication, and by demonstrating the massive savings to be achieved. Data content for each listed application needs harmonisation so that user searches return meaningful results and provide useful comparative content. In addition, the initial minimal viable product created under the pilot project also needs ongoing maintenance funds to meet the evolving European Applications Catalogue. In addition to the improvement of the catalogue resulting from the pilot project, we need to allocate part of the funding to improve national catalogues and their compatibility with the European one. (ii) Critical Software Inventory Aside from gaining praise for tackling this pressing issue (e.g. the recent Log4J issue), the pilot project illustrated the huge lack of awareness of critical software within European public services. The pilot project provided that awareness, but awareness is not sufficient as European Public Services lack the tools to identify critical software. It is clear therefore that European public services cannot handle this issue alone. At the very least they need tools to create a Software Bill of Materials (SBOM) for every software they use. That is why for the Union institutions and European public services should pool their resources to a project that would keep identifying and fixing critical software. There is a need for engagement and cooperation with other industry actors in order to sustain that effort. The scope of the inventory should be extended to fit the increased use of FOSS in public administrations, as well as by vendors providing software solutions to the public sector. As part of the development of the inventory, the FOSSEPS team should develop a Union-wide maintenance strategy for the identified software in collaboration with the FOSS actors that are currently maintaining them. This mitigation strategy and its financing will be elaborated on in collaboration with the Member States. The goal of this preparatory action is ultimately that Member States increase collaboratively and autonomously their capacity to identify critical software and mitigate any potential cybersecurity risks. Special attention should be given to identifying a mechanism for the sustainability of solutions for critical software. This will strengthen and extend the current activities of public service open source expertise centres in Member States and the Commission, using funding from the preparatory action. 1514/2337 ELI: http://data.europa.eu/eli/budget/2026/72/ojEN OJ L, 26.2.2026 COMMISSION PREPARATORY ACTIONS CHAPTER PA 01 — RESEARCH AND INNOVATION (cont'd) PA 01 24 (cont'd) PA 01 24 01 (cont'd) (iii) European cooperation on open source The preparatory action will build on the nascent work started by the pilot project to encourage European public services to form an open source network or user group. The preparatory action will actively involve European public services across the Member States to strengthen the expertise in this network, allowing it to expand, and bring in new members. One of the possible practical outcomes of this increased capacity, to be prepared in the preparatory action, is to find ways for public service open source expertise centres in the Member States to pool their resources to allow them to collectively improve the sustainability and governance of essential open source components. This initiative will allow European public services to manage their own open source issues and collectively provide solutions, thus enabling them to become digitally sovereign in this area, while nurturing the European open source ecosystem of small open source actors. (iv) Open source cybersecurity and sustainability There is a need to conduct security and sustainability analyses on commonly used open source software within European public services. The preparatory action will conduct a series of bug bounties and hackathons to identify and fix criticalities and help to make critical software more sustainable by enhancing or strengthening the base software. Such activities will also help to promote the use of open source within the Union. (v) Defining strategies to promote the re-use of software developed by or for public services In particular, this preparatory action will promote software re-use by using a series of incentives (awards) via competitions, to provide, apart from financial prizes, practical support (e.g., consultancy, development, testing support) and help these public services to address software issues that prevent their solutions from being used by other public administrations in other Member States (e.g., internationalisation and localisation, integration and customisation).

This is of particular importance when taking into account the need to localise the SDGs at different sub-national levels in order to ensure their implementation in light of local challenges and objectives. One of the key challenges in monitoring and implementing the SDGs is the design and development of integrated and coherent policies that take into account the interlinkages among the SDGs and their targets. Other challenges include inadequate financing, insufficient data and monitoring mechanisms, and differing institutional capacities in European regions. This preparatory action aims to inform the Union, national and regional policy-making with concrete recommendations on aspects related to SDG monitoring and implementation at the regional level, building on the outcome of the pilot project PP 01 22 06 ‘Monitoring the Sustainable Development Goals in the Union - Filling the data gaps’ including the co-developed set of indicators and data. The preparatory action aims at establishing a mechanism for the regular regional monitoring of the progress towards the achievement of the SDGs. The mechanism will work on the data collection, analysis and interpretation of indicators produced at regional level (NUTS2). This preparatory action is to be implemented over two years. The steps to take for the implementation of the preparatory action are: — expanding the regional indicator set to address all SDG targets (from 55 to 169) created under PP 01 22 06; — validating the regional indicator set via a large scale survey targeting European regions; — establishing and disseminating the European regional indicator set for monitoring the SDGs with most updated data; — cooperating with national statistical systems on the systematic collection and dissemination of regional SDG data; — inferring associations in the form of complementary and trade-off interlinkages for policy actions addressing the SDGs at subnational level; — testing the complementarity of a series of current European policies (European Green Deal, cohesion policy, the common agricultural policy) in relation to the achievement of certain SDGs at regional level; — developing policy recommendations for the Commission on how European regions monitor the SDGs, and what SDG interlinkages imply for policy-making actions. 1516/2337 ELI: http://data.europa.eu/eli/budget/2026/72/ojEN OJ L, 26.2.2026 COMMISSION PREPARATORY ACTIONS CHAPTER PA 01 — RESEARCH AND INNOVATION (cont'd) PA 01 24 (cont'd) PA 01 24 03 Preparatory action — Partnerships for Regional Innovation Figures (Differentiated appropriations) 2026 appropriations 2025 appropriations 2024 out-turn Commitments Payments Commitments Payments Commitments Payments p.m. 1 000 000 1 000 000 750 000 1 000 000,— 57 034,39 Remarks This appropriation is intended to cover commitments remaining to be settled from previous years under the preparatory action. 1. Partnerships for Regional Innovation: policy relevance and next steps Innovation is an essential enabler for achieving the Union’s policy objectives, in particular the green transition and digital transformation and achieving open strategic autonomy, as well as the Sustainable Development Goals. Innovation is also essential to drive Europe’s competitiveness and to build resilience in strategic areas and reduce the dependencies and vulnerabilities that recent crises have brought to the surface. The deep transformations of production and consumption systems brought about by the transition to a new green energy system, by the pervasive role of digital technologies, and by the challenges that the COVID-19 crisis and the consequences of Russia’s war of aggression against Ukraine demand for ambitious investments in innovation. However, truly transformative outcomes are unlikely to be generated by more funds in a business-as-usual approach. New innovation policies must address two important prerequisites: meaningful involvement of local and regional stakeholders including citizens, enterprises, knowledge institutions and local authorities; and transformative, system- level innovation influencing and inspiring industrial, climate, employment and social policies, among others. They also have to take into account recent Joint Research Centre (JRC) modelling work on regional economic diversification achieved by introducing new technologies that concludes that related diversification has a greater potential for more peripheral and less developed regions than for the more developed regions that should rather pursue more path- breaking ways to innovate. In 2022, the Commission and the European Committee of the Regions launched the Partnerships for Regional Innovation (PRI). The PRI approach was endorsed by the Commission in its communication of 5 July 2020 entitled ‘New European Innovation Agenda’. PRI come as a response to the urgent call of the European Green Deal to address the unprecedented challenge posed by climate change, to the pressing need to achieve open strategic autonomy and to ensure that Europe thrives in the green and digital economy of the future, while strengthening social and territorial cohesion in an era of global polycrisis. ELI: http://data.europa.eu/eli/budget/2026/72/oj 1517/2337EN OJ L, 26.2.2026 COMMISSION PREPARATORY ACTIONS CHAPTER PA 01 — RESEARCH AND INNOVATION (cont'd) PA 01 24 (cont'd) PA 01 24 03 (cont'd) PRI have been developed at the JRC. They build on positive experiences with smart specialisation strategies and seek to address the fragmentation of funding instruments and policies in territories, and misalignments between regional, national and Union initiatives, while exploring novel approaches designed to join up efforts across governments and stakeholders, develop partnerships and amplify impact. A first PRI Playbook has been developed and offered to the territories participating in the pilot, with a view to guiding the implementation of the pilot project. The year-long PRI pilot project started on the 17 May 2022, it involves 74 territories and has two main objectives. The first is to thoroughly test and further develop the PRI Playbook, and through it the whole PRI concept. The second key objective is to start giving further visibility to, and co-develop, opportunities for pilot territories to connect and initiate interregional collaboration on topics in support of future regional innovation valleys under the New European Innovation Agenda, the joint local articulation of Union missions, inter-regional cooperation in new sustainable value chains, collaborative skills development, or further areas that matter most to the territories. 2. Preparatory action on PRI: objectives, scope, and activities Based on the above, this preparatory action would: — open the experimentation of the PRI to a larger set of territories than the one involved in the initial action, — test the PRI as a bridge between local smart specialisation strategies and the deployment of the Union climate adaptation mission in regions and communities, — support the participation of the territories in new Union value chains linked to the deployment of the twin green and digital transitions, — test PRI long-term viability, — foster its policy traction, — support the deployment and implementation of the PRI concept in support of Union industrial, cohesion and research and innovation policies, — link the PRI to the New European Bauhaus approach where appropriate, 1518/2337 ELI: http://data.europa.eu/eli/budget/2026/72/ojEN OJ L, 26.2.2026 COMMISSION PREPARATORY ACTIONS CHAPTER PA 01 — RESEARCH AND INNOVATION (cont'd) PA 01 24 (cont'd) PA 01 24 03 (cont'd) — address the challenges and needs of smaller or less innovative communities and territories to mitigate the risks of an increased in innovation divide in the Union, — create a community of PRI practitioners.

This preparatory action has the following objectives: — analysis of case studies of startup villages; — formulation of a final report with policy recommendations to be launched in a public event. There is no legal basis for an in-depth collection of indicators and metrics concerning innovation deployment and specifically innovative entrepreneurship in rural areas, and there is little availability of appropriate data and statistics, as well as scarce evidence of how startups can emerge and successfully grow in rural areas. Therefore, the knowledge base needs to be enhanced and broadened in order to underpin policy action with scientific support. Moreover, there is no specific action matching innovation, startups and entrepreneurship in the current broad framework of Union policy programmes targeting rural areas. The different policies that impact on rural areas (rural development policies, regional policy, research and innovation policy) deploy a number of relevant actions, but a synthesis is missing and there is therefore a need to join the dots and extract relevant recommendations to fill this gap in future action.

This preparatory action (PA) will focus on the systematic mapping and analysis of the policies, governance mechanisms, and strategies implemented to achieve the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) at the subnational level in Europe. It will delve into a wealth of textual data from Voluntary Local Reviews (VLRs), local and regional policy documents, and other relevant sources to identify, analyse, and classify the concrete actions and the underlying policy and governance frameworks that local and regional governments in Europe are using to implement the SDGs. By mapping these actions and the associated policy approaches, and extracting insights, the PA aims to provide policymakers at the Union, national and subnational level with a comprehensive analysis of the distinctive features, interlinkages and caveats related to SDG implementation and policy design at the subnational level. At the core of this new PA is the development of an online platform to showcase, analyse and disseminate the diversity of SDG implementation efforts across Europe. This platform will provide: — a curated repository of actionable practices and policy measures, categorised by goals, regions, and thematic clusters. — nnalytical tools to explore interlinkages between actions and policies, revealing how the expected impact of individual actions could be further reinforced through integrated approaches to policy design and implementation. — ad hoc policy briefs and evidence-based analytical insights to support the work of European and subnational policymakers. The PA will count on the participation of local and regional governments across Member States, engaging with stakeholders at multiple SDG governance levels, with a view to ensure the scalability and transferability of the pilot project findings. The steps to take for the implementation of the PA are: 1. collecting and analysing reported SDG actions and related policy measures and governance arrangements from Voluntary Local Reviews (VLRs), regional strategies and policy documents. 2. developing a framework for categorising and classifying actions and policies by SDG goals, targets, and regions. 3. analysing actions and governance mechanisms to identify trends, innovative practices, and interlinkages across regions and SDGs. 1520/2337 ELI: http://data.europa.eu/eli/budget/2026/72/ojEN OJ L, 26.2.2026 COMMISSION PREPARATORY ACTIONS CHAPTER PA 01 — RESEARCH AND INNOVATION (cont'd) PA 01 26 (cont'd) PA 01 26 01 (cont'd) 4. performing a gap analysis to highlight areas requiring additional efforts and policy support instruments. 5. expanding current online data dissemination, analysis and visualisation platforms to arrive at a comprehensive repository of subnational SDG actions and policies with advanced analytical and visualization tools. 6. validating findings through consultations with academic experts as well as local and regional governments. 7. producing and disseminating an evidence-based policy insight to local, regional, national, and Union (Parliament, the Commission, and the Committee of the Regions) stakeholders. 8. proposing a roadmap for scaling and integrating the findings of the PA into robust and coherent sustainability policy frameworks across the Union, including recommendations for future legislative or funding initiatives to support local implementation efforts. PA 01 26 02 Preparatory action — New Methodologies for Assessing Inequalities Figures (Differentiated appropriations) 2026 appropriations 2025 appropriations 2024 out-turn Commitments Payments 1 350 000 337 500 Remarks In a fast-changing world, the Union requires new, comprehensive, and systematic approaches to assess economic and social inequalities across Member States. While there are existing data sources on wealth distribution, cohesion and social capital, they remain fragmented, often outdated and insufficient for understanding the full scope of inequality and evaluating the impact of certain policies and effectiveness of measures to tackle it. The ‘New Methodologies for Assessing Inequalities’ preparatory action would bridge this gap by complementing existing data sets and scoreboards with novel ‘out of the box’ research methods and data to assess inequalities. These include ‘Big Data’ approaches, using alternatives data sources (e.g. text data, administrative data) and techniques such as: advanced modelling with heterogeneous agents, Natural Language Processing (NLP), non-linear econometric techniques (e.g. Bayesian Neural Networks) or Transformer Models to provide robust, consistent, and real-time insights on the various dimensions of inequality. This evidence-based approach using state-of-the-art analytical frameworks would empower the Union and its Member States to develop more targeted and effective policies and anticipate the need for new ones, addressing economic and social inequalities in a holistic manner. ELI: http://data.europa.eu/eli/budget/2026/72/oj 1521/2337EN OJ L, 26.2.2026 COMMISSION PREPARATORY ACTIONS CHAPTER PA 01 — RESEARCH AND INNOVATION (cont'd) PA 01 26 (cont'd) PA 01 26 02 (cont'd) The preparatory action (PA) would also play a pivotal role in enhancing social cohesion. By testing approaches capable to uncover both visible and hidden dimensions of inequality it would contribute to better identification of groups most at risk of being left behind, and thus enable proactive interventions, to ensure that no one is excluded from the benefits of Union policies. Additionally, it would establish a statistical foundation for measuring social capital, by combining various data with novel analytical techniques, leading to more precise assessments of social cohesion throughout Europe. In doing so, it would contribute to a more equitable distribution of opportunities and outcomes, fostering greater unity and reducing the potential for social fragmentation. Finally, the PA would facilitate cross-border cooperation and novel ‘out-of-the box’ use of data using Machine Learning techniques and Artificial Intelligence, offering a platform for Member States, research institutions, and civil society to share cutting-edge knowledge, best practices, and new successful policy models. This collaborative effort would help align national and Union policies, ensuring that inequalities are tackled comprehensively, with coordinated responses across regions and sectors. In the long term, having the right instruments to address inequality is critical for the sustainability of the Union social model. Social instability driven by inequality can erode public trust, fuel polarization, and undermine democratic values. The PA would help mitigate these risks as well, using novel data and techniques to identify new forms of inequality at local level arising from e.g. different exposure to environmental hazards and climate change, depopulation and the impact of digitalisation. This will support policymakers to implement timely, effective solutions, ensuring a more inclusive and resilient Union for the future. In conclusion, the establishment of this PA is essential for advancing social and economic cohesion across the Union. It would provide the evidence base necessary for informed policymaking, foster greater cooperation among Member States, and ensure that the Union remains a pioneer and global leader in addressing inequality. By making inequality a central focus of Union policy, the PA would contribute to building a more inclusive, just, and sustainable future for all Europeans.

The Commission has implemented the pilot project PP 02 20 02 ‘Eco labelling for aviation / Demonstration project for the introduction of a voluntary Green Label system in aviation’. That pilot project also became part of the Commission's communication of 5 December 2020 entitled ‘Sustainable and Smart Mobility Strategy - putting European transport on track for the future’ (COM(2020) 789 final) under Flagship 5 ‘Pricing Carbon and provide better incentives for users’. The work performed under the pilot project clearly demonstrated the technical and operational feasibility of the labelling system for aviation. The main objective of the environmental labelling system for aviation is to reduce aviation’s environmental footprint by facilitating more sustainable choices for consumers based on trusted, harmonised and accessible information. A holistic approach is being considered by looking at the key components of the aviation system, such as flight performance and complementary information on aircraft technology. Such an approach would incentivise the aviation industry to reduce its environmental impact by considering both readily available solutions and future technologies. The pilot project developed the methodologies and the relevant digital distribution frameworks identifying the technical criteria to assess airline operations and the aircraft technology used, and did so in line with the applicable policies, initiatives and methodologies developed by the Commission. In addition, the pilot project includes broad stakeholder participation with key players from the aviation industry (25+ airlines, engine and aircraft manufacturers, airports) and travel industry (Amadeus, Google, Skyscanner, Travalyst), Member States as well as NGOs (UECNA, BEUC, T+E). Based on the positive outcomes of the pilot project a follow-up preparatory action would allow the further development of the pilot project for the direct benefit of Union citizens by providing a potential legal basis. In this regard, further work is anticipated to explore the inclusion of non-CO climate impacts from aviation into the label 2 assessment method. Such work might include lifecycle assessment work that will enable mode of transport comparison, as well as scientific work needed to align methodological discrepancies. Considering that the label aims to provide a total assessment of the environmental impact of aviation a thorough assessment should be made with regards to developing additional use cases covering environmental transparency methods for air navigation service providers (ANSP), airlines and aircraft manufacturers. 1526/2337 ELI: http://data.europa.eu/eli/budget/2026/72/ojEN OJ L, 26.2.2026 COMMISSION PREPARATORY ACTIONS CHAPTER PA 02 — EUROPEAN STRATEGIC INVESTMENTS (cont'd) PA 02 24 (cont'd) PA 02 24 02 Preparatory action — Establishing a book and claim system for SAF Figures (Differentiated appropriations) 2026 appropriations 2025 appropriations 2024 out-turn Commitments Payments Commitments Payments Commitments Payments p.m. 2 000 000 2 800 000 700 000 3 000 000,— 3 000 000,— Remarks This appropriation is intended to cover commitments remaining to be settled from previous years under the preparatory action. The Preparatory Action (PA 02 24 02) aiming to establish a book and claim system for the aviation sector in the Union should continue. Bearing in mind various business initiatives, it should carefully examine, whether IT architecture of book and claim should be based on a generic solution, extendable to cover additional sectors, with due regard to interoperability, in order to set up an internally secured, on time and reliable corporate tool at the disposal of the Commission and other business actors and to avoid possible market fragmentation or red tape. In addition, the ongoing Preparatory Action on book and claim system should also cover the Union maritime sector in order to increase the share and to facilitate the cost-effective distribution of renewable and low-carbon fuels in the fuel mix of the Union maritime transport by separating the purchase of such fuels from their physical delivery and use. There are important differences between the maritime and aviation sectors, which needs to be well reflected within the Preparatory Action. It should be carried out in the following phases: — analysing the existing legislative framework, including the relevant provisions under RED, EU ETS, AFIR and FuelEU maritime as well as any other relevant legislation in the Union, at IMO and in 3rd countries with main global bunkering hubs and those situated in green shipping corridors; — developing a sound framework for book and claim mechanisms, including for: — sustainable fuel certification/credentials – to transfer sustainability certification/characteristics without actual transfer/use of molecules; — OPS green credentials – to trade green energy when using onshore power supply; — the design of IT architecture of the book and claim system, with due regard to the existing Union Database, the solution designed for aviation (ongoing preparatory action) and possibly other sectoral solutions (including provision of green electricity in ports through book and claim by energy companies in the future), as well as its interoperability with other relevant databases and IT systems; ELI: http://data.europa.eu/eli/budget/2026/72/oj 1527/2337EN OJ L, 26.2.2026 COMMISSION PREPARATORY ACTIONS CHAPTER PA 02 — EUROPEAN STRATEGIC INVESTMENTS (cont'd) PA 02 24 (cont'd) PA 02 24 02 (cont'd) — developing a corporate tool through the Union Database to serve the Commission and businesses in demonstrating fuels’ sustainability credentials; strategic reflections on the future transport fuels master database, its interoperability with systems used by Union agencies and similar possible systems in 3rd countries, including in the context of potential global measures both for maritime (IMO) and aviation (ICAO/ECAC).

Operations in the higher airspace, i.e. above 20km altitude, are already taking place and trigger critical challenges. The Commission has delivered a ‘Roadmap on Higher Airspace Operations (HAO)’ exploring the regulatory issues around the development of these operations in the Union and recommending a number of follow-up actions. These actions aim at better understanding these future higher airspace operations and the associated challenges in order to prepare an adequate Union regulatory framework, and consist of: — studies and research; — safety, environmental and cyber-security assessments; — development of the ‘regulatory sandbox’ concept to accelerate industry tests and demonstrations. The overall objective in this field would be to enable a safe, secure, efficient and sustainable implementation of higher airspace operations in Europe and to contribute building a global approach through the International Civil Aviation Organization (ICAO) by establishing a strong European position. This preparatory action should allow building enhanced knowledge of these future operations and their environment, to prepare for future regulatory initiatives and build a useful ecosystem supporting industrial developments. Thanks to its recognised experience and excellence in aviation and space domains, Europe could have a leading role in this future industry. It will also be important to ensure that security and defence aspects are duly taken into account to protect sovereignty in the European airspace. 1528/2337 ELI: http://data.europa.eu/eli/budget/2026/72/ojEN OJ L, 26.2.2026 COMMISSION PREPARATORY ACTIONS CHAPTER PA 02 — EUROPEAN STRATEGIC INVESTMENTS (cont'd) PA 02 24 (cont'd) PA 02 24 03 (cont'd) The key objectives of this preparatory action would be to support the following lines of action: — launching scientific studies on the conditions at high altitude affecting the flights and the persons on board (weather, medical requirements, spectrum, surveillance, communications, propulsion, etc.); — supporting industrial development, for instance through special certification conditions and regulatory sandboxes; — performing legal and regulatory assessments (including safety and environmental impact assessments), as well as gap analysis; — exploiting synergies with other Union policies (space, defence, security, connectivity, etc.); — ensuring regional and global interoperability, mainly through ICAO; — building European know-how and raise awareness. The implementation of this preparatory action will continue in 2024-2025. The results from its actions as well as from the first tests and demonstrations in Europe are aimed to support the development of a regulatory framework as of 2026.

The Commission has implemented the pilot project PP 02 22 02 ‘Comprehensive handbook for building local Urban Air Mobility (UAM) ecosystem in Europe’. That pilot project is flagship action 7 under the Commission's communication of 29 November 2022 entitled ‘A Drone Strategy 2.0 for a Smart and Sustainable Unmanned Aircraft Eco-System in Europe’ (COM(2022) 652 final). The implementation started in the same month with the objective to provide a first version of the platform by end of 2023 for testing. ELI: http://data.europa.eu/eli/budget/2026/72/oj 1529/2337EN OJ L, 26.2.2026 COMMISSION PREPARATORY ACTIONS CHAPTER PA 02 — EUROPEAN STRATEGIC INVESTMENTS (cont'd) PA 02 24 (cont'd) PA 02 24 04 (cont'd) The overall objective is to enable a safe, secure, efficient and sustainable IAM implementation in Europe as foreseen in the Drones Strategy 2.0 by providing an interactive online platform (‘IAM Hub’) for IAM ecosystems. In particular, the pilot project is currently: — capturing the user needs from the IAM ecosystem, — defining the functional and technical requirements, — defining the data structure, — defining the initial content of the system as regards safety, privacy, noise and sustainability. In addition, the pilot project includes a comprehensive stakeholder governance (‘IAM Hub Task Force’) with key players from the IAM ecosystem (operators, manufacturers, airports, vertiport operators, NAAs and municipalities). Based on the positive outcomes of the implementation of the pilot project and initial feedback from the Stakeholder Task Force a follow-up preparatory action would allow to further develop the pilot project for the direct benefit of Union citizens and the emerging IAM industry. The Union has a leading role in this future industry. The IAM Hub can help to maintain this lead by allowing for smooth implementation across all levels of the ecosystem. The key objectives of the preparatory action would be: — widening the accessibility and functionalities of the system to further municipalities and other uses; — increasing the synergies between the European Authority for Aviation Safety (EASA) and National Aviation Authorities; — increasing the synergies with other Union initiatives e.g. CIVITAS (City-Vitality-Sustainability, i.e. City Network- Urban Mobility Transport Programme by the Commission within the Union and beyond), SESAR projects; — defining the legal hook of the IAM Hub as a means for collaboration in the ecosystem facilitating compliance with the Drones/eVTOL regulations as well as safety, environmental, cyber and noise issues. The preparatory action should benefit from high visibility events, e.g. the 2026 Milan Winter Olympics, and integrate the learnings into the system. 1530/2337 ELI: http://data.europa.eu/eli/budget/2026/72/ojEN OJ L, 26.2.2026 COMMISSION PREPARATORY ACTIONS CHAPTER PA 02 — EUROPEAN STRATEGIC INVESTMENTS (cont'd) PA 02 24 (cont'd) PA 02 24 05 Preparatory action — The European Green Digital Coalition moves to Action Figures (Differentiated appropriations) 2026 appropriations 2025 appropriations 2024 out-turn Commitments Payments Commitments Payments Commitments Payments p.m. 1 000 000 p.m. 550 000 2 000 000,— 0,— Remarks This appropriation is intended to cover commitments remaining to be settled from previous years under the preparatory action. Green digital twin transition has been identified as priority policy area to reach the objectives of both the European Green Deal and the European Digital Strategy as expressed in Commission communication of 19 February 2020 entitled ‘the Shaping Europe’s digital future’ (COM(2020) 67 final), the European Declaration on Digital Rights and Principles for the Digital Decade (COM(2022) 28 final) and in Decision (EU) 2022/2481 of the European Parliament and of the Council of 14 December 2022 establishing the Digital Decade Policy Programme 2030 (OJ L 323, 19.12.2022, p. 4, ELI: http://data.europa.eu/eli/dec/2022/2481/oj). The potential of digital solutions is to reduce global emissions of greenhouse gases by 20 %, if properly designed, used and governed. Steps needed to realise this potential include: (i) metrics to quantify the net digitalisation impact and guidelines to maximise the digital enablement, that is, science- based metrics to measure the environmental impact of digitalisation. Such metrics are essential to further develop guidelines for consistent development, implementation and governance of ‘green digital solutions’ that maximise the sustainability benefits and minimise negative (rebound) effects; (ii) adoption and use of these metrics and guidelines by all sectors of Union economy. Major sectors of our economy in their digitalisation efforts will be supported by the tailored guidelines to their sector on how to deploy green digital solutions. The metrics will be used to quantify the benefits (e.g. avoided emissions) so that these sectors can be supported in their intended net zero trajectories and report progress accordingly. Dedicated Union-wide programmes such as Digital Decade Policy Programme (DDPP) will also help to deploy at scale sustainable digital solutions and infrastructures in Member States and support these efforts with proper upskilling of the workforce; (iii) based on the large scale evidence of such benefits, to support financial sector and public procurers need to develop clear and consistent key performance indicators (KPIs) and metrics for sustainable financing of such green digital solutions as well a criteria for green public procurements, respectively. Major Union programmes and initiatives such as the NextGenerationEU and Digital Decade Policy Programme will also benefit from these metrics. ELI: http://data.europa.eu/eli/budget/2026/72/oj 1531/2337EN OJ L, 26.2.2026 COMMISSION PREPARATORY ACTIONS CHAPTER PA 02 — EUROPEAN STRATEGIC INVESTMENTS (cont'd) PA 02 24 (cont'd) PA 02 24 05 (cont'd) To address point (i), Parliament took the initiative in 2021, following Council conclusions of 17 December 2020 entitled ‘Digitalisation for the benefits of the environment’, to request a pilot project. The Commission accepted that proposal and launched a two-year pilot project ‘European Green Digital Coalition (EGDC)’ that started in mid- December 2021. The goal of that pilot project was to support the Members of the European Green Digital Coalition that was launched by Commissioner Breton in March 2021. Namely, to develop science-based assessment methodologies (metrics, KPIs) to quantify the net environmental impact of digital solutions, and to develop guidelines for stakeholders in major economic sectors to use these methods consistently. The methodology will be based on international and European standards, and the guidelines were expected to be developed by the end of 2023 or early 2024. The membership of the EGDC comprises 37 large ICT companies, 45 SMEs and numerous supporting partners. This preparatory action addresses points (ii) and (iii) by extending the European Green Digital Coalition to include sectoral players from energy, transport, construction, agriculture, and other major sectors that will deploy digital solutions with the guidance developed in the EGDC and monitor the benefits with the standardised methods developed by the EGDC. In particular, this preparatory action will: 1. engage with at least 30 major sectoral players such as major economic actors in the Union in the abovementioned sectors to deploy proven digital solutions at scale with the support of the specific sectoral guidelines and consistently monitor the net environmental impact of such digitalisation. As a goal this preparatory action will set to achieve at least 1 Gigaton of digitally enabled CO reductions, ideally by the end of this preparatory action; 2 2. engage with at least financial institutions and international, national, regional and local level to adopt simple KPIs that will allow sustainable finance of digitalisation that proves to have a positive impact on environment and climate; 3. develop clear and simple technical criteria and verification methods as a proposal for the Union taxonomy when Commission Delegated Regulation (EU) 2021/2139 of 4 June 2021 supplementing Regulation (EU) 2020/852 of the European Parliament and of the Council by establishing the technical screening criteria for determining the conditions under which an economic activity qualifies as contributing substantially to climate change mitigation or climate change adaptation and for determining whether that economic activity causes no significant harm to any of the other environmental objectives (OJ L 442, 9.12.2021, p. 1, ELI: http://data.europa.eu/eli/reg_del/2021/2139/oj) will be subject to revision, and to support the development of Union-wide green public procurement criteria; 4. engage with similar and complementary initiatives such as Digital with Purpose and CODES to ensure future continuation, sustainability and global impact of this preparatory action; 5. engage with local communities and authorities for them to implement the metrics and methodology at a local level. 1532/2337 ELI: http://data.europa.eu/eli/budget/2026/72/ojEN OJ L, 26.2.2026 COMMISSION PREPARATORY ACTIONS CHAPTER PA 02 — EUROPEAN STRATEGIC INVESTMENTS (cont'd) PA 02 24 (cont'd) PA 02 24 05 (cont'd) This preparatory action will comprise not only of ICT and vertical industry stakeholders, but also SMEs, policymakers from local and regional representatives, professional organisations and environmental NGOs. A trusted cooperative environment will be built to assess and monitor the commitments and their implementation, to share good practices and to be able to scale to other sectors and other regions of the world. Building upon the pilot project, the appropriations for the preparatory action will finance a secretariat dedicated to its implementation. Continuity with the current Secretariat would be ideal, especially if the contract of the call for tender can be extended to cover the period of the preparatory action. High-level events will be organised under the preparatory action under the auspices of the European Parliament and the Commission, in cooperation with local partners. These can take place in different Member States, focusing on key policy areas linking the European Green Deal and the new Union’s digital and industrial strategies. The events should be web-streamed to ensure a broad public coverage and accessibility to as many Union citizens as possible. The outcomes of the events would contribute to policy development and evaluation at Union level and beyond. PA 02 25 2025 PA 02 25 01 Preparatory action — Preparatory work for auctions for renewable hydrogen imports under the European Hydrogen Bank Figures (Differentiated appropriations) 2026 appropriations 2025 appropriations 2024 out-turn Commitments Payments Commitments Payments p.m. 450 000 1 500 000 375 000 Remarks This appropriation is intended to cover commitments remaining to be settled from previous years under the preparatory action. The REPowerEU Plan aims to produce 10 million tonnes of renewable hydrogen within the Union and to import 10 million tonnes of renewable hydrogen from third countries. The Union is the first region that has established a regulatory framework to support a fully-fledged ecosystem for the development and uptake of renewable hydrogen to decarbonise our economy. This includes clear rules governing the hydrogen market in the Union, access to infrastructure, and allowing hydrogen imports to count towards Member State targets. Renewable hydrogen is more expensive than fossil fuel-based hydrogen. The targeted use of public resources can leverage private sector investments by de-risking renewable hydrogen production. ELI: http://data.europa.eu/eli/budget/2026/72/oj 1533/2337EN OJ L, 26.2.2026 COMMISSION PREPARATORY ACTIONS CHAPTER PA 02 — EUROPEAN STRATEGIC INVESTMENTS (cont'd) PA 02 25 (cont'd) PA 02 25 01 (cont'd) The European Hydrogen Bank (EHB) will play an important role in facilitating early market creation for hydrogen. The Commission has set up auctions at the level of the Union for renewable hydrogen production under the Innovation Fund to support market development, and has also proposed to set up an international auction for imports. Both Union production and imports are important to meet the potentially large future demand from industrial sectors such as steel and chemicals. The establishment of an international auction for imports will require additional financing. Currently, there is no dedicated funding available for the international leg of the EHB to support imports of renewable hydrogen. On the other hand, under the domestic leg of the EHB, a pilot auction for renewable hydrogen production in the Union awarded in September 2024 EUR 700 million to six successful bidders. Following this experience and the lessons learned, the Commission launched a second auction for renewable hydrogen production in the Union on 3 December 2024 with a total budget of EUR 1,2 billion. The EU ETS Innovation Fund finances the domestic auction, but can only be used within the Union and the European Economic Area, and not to support production in third countries. Therefore, in the EHB Communication, the Commission has proposed a Team Europe approach to bring together Member State resources and provide de-risking for third country projects. In addition, the Commission will explore options to secure dedicated funding for the international leg of the EHB from the next MFF. In order to design a scheme for renewable hydrogen imports from third countries into the Union, substantial analytical and preparatory work is required in the immediate term. Such preparatory work could include analysing the hydrogen market landscape globally, identifying the specific risks associated with the import of hydrogen and the associated financing challenges, and the advantages and disadvantages of different auction design elements, and building on existing experience, such as the international auctions organised by the H2Global Foundation. This preparatory action will be beneficial for all Member States that are interested in hydrogen imports into the Union, and will also be valuable for Member States that are developing hydrogen corridors connected to Union borders. Despite the lack of a dedicated budget, there is momentum for an international import auction. A number of Member States have expressed an interest in participating in such an auction. Moreover, there is keen interest from international producers and third countries to produce renewable hydrogen and export it to the Union. A budget of EUR 1,5 million would be required for this preparatory action, with implementation to start in 2025. 1534/2337 ELI: http://data.europa.eu/eli/budget/2026/72/ojEN OJ L, 26.2.2026 COMMISSION PREPARATORY ACTIONS CHAPTER PA 02 — EUROPEAN STRATEGIC INVESTMENTS (cont'd) PA 02 26 2026 PA 02 26 01 Preparatory action — EU Hub for Sustainable Aviation Fuels (SAF) Production Figures (Differentiated appropriations) 2026 appropriations 2025 appropriations 2024 out-turn Commitments Payments 4 000 000 1 000 000 Remarks Objective: To further develop and finally validate the concept of a self-standing EU Hub for Sustainable Aviation Fuels (SAF) Production to provide a single, independent European capability supporting SAF entry into market compliant with sustainability and safety rules and standards and removing technical barriers to increased SAF use, with a particular focus on supporting European SMEs. The EU Hub for SAF Production should act as a flanking measure that can technically support the fulfilment of the ambitious ReFuelEU Aviation mandate without relying on external, non-EU factors and players. It will ensure innovation and key competitiveness for SME’s, technology developers, fuel producers ensuring innovation and key competitiveness. Background and Rationale: Sustainable Aviation Fuels are important to reducing the aviation sector's carbon footprint. However, the complex development process and technical barriers limit the large-scale adoption of SAF. Currently, fuel producers must navigate diverse and fragmented procedures and sustainability and safety requirements, creating inefficiencies and delays in bringing European SAF to market. At present, the primary SAF research and standardisation programs for new fuels entry into market are conducted in the United States. This arrangement poses significant challenges for European stakeholders, especially SMEs, due to the complexity, cost, and geographic barriers associated with accessing these processes. European SMEs face particular difficulty in meeting the intricate technical and regulatory requirements without localised support. Scope of the preparatory action: 1. define the operational framework, governance structure, and scope for financially self-sufficient EU Hub for SAF Production. Identify and analyse best practices from existing processes and international standards; map existing Union research programmes and technical resources to support the Hub's development; assess the specific needs and challenges faced by European SMEs in navigating processes for entry of new types of fuels to the market. 2. Design a pilot framework to validate the self-sufficient Hub model through real-world case studies with SAF producers; engage with industry stakeholders, including fuel producers, research and certification bodies, and regulatory agencies, to validate financial, technical and operational requirements, ensure particular emphasis on providing accessible SAF pathways and technical guidance for SMEs.

Create technical guidelines and toolkits for SAF producers to streamline compliance with safety and sustainability standards and rules for entry of new types of fuels to the market; develop a comprehensive knowledge base on SAF qualification pathways, technical specifications, and regulatory frameworks; provide dedicated resources and tailored guidance to assist SMEs in meeting requirements. 4. Deliverables will include: — operational framework and governance model for a financially self-sufficient EU Hub for SAF production; — report on barriers and proposed solutions linked to bringing new types of SAF to the market, with a focus on SME-specific challenges; — comprehensive toolkit and guidelines for SAF producers, including tailored support for SMEs; 5. In addition to the above, a successful completion of the preparatory action will yield: — enhanced fuel diversity: with additional SAF production pathways qualified, the European SAF industry would benefit from a more diverse range of feedstocks and technologies, ensuring resilience against disruptions; — enhanced fuel production yields: additional research activities would assist fuel producers to optimize their production yields for targeted use of SAF in aviation; this will lead to a long-term benefit of reduced fuel costs for operators; — boosted R&D Capabilities: fortified European fuel R&D infrastructure would lead to increased innovation, potentially positioning Europe as a global leader in SAF research and technology; — New Made-in-EU SAF pathways: internationally recognised new SAF technologies designed and produced in the Union, which paves the way for European autonomy through a vibrant ecosystem of SAF technology developers and producers. This includes successful bench scale testing of at least one new Made-in-EU SAF pathway.

This preparatory action proposes the creation of a European Capital of Small Retail (ECSR), based on the model of the European Capital of Smart Tourism. The idea was put forward by a petition to the European Parliament and is supported by unanimity of the Committee on Petitions. The aim of the preparatory action is to promote the value and appreciation of small retail and to contribute to a collective awareness of its economic importance for local communities, notably in terms of employment, as well as its key role as part of the social fabric of urban and rural areas. It aims also to highlight the role of small retail in preserving the European way of life and the model, form and essence of cities and rural communities in the Union, and to demonstrate how small retail is an important part of the European identity. The focus of this preparatory action is to go beyond awareness-raising and take actions that would have a lasting impact. The preparatory action should encourage small retail to digitalise and allow it to embrace digital tools for their own operations, in their business-to-business relationships and in their relationships with customers. The action should also support the green transition of small retail. With regard to all of these aspects, the creation of a ECSR should complement the Commission's #RevitaliseRetail initiative. On a larger scale, ECSR addresses the growing need to accelerate the green and digital transition of the Union’s economy, increase its resilience and support its competitiveness. The title of a European Capital of Small Retail would be awarded periodically to one European city or more. The modalities of the selection process will be further elaborated.

An important data gap on fire safety and fire casualties in buildings, and a lack of Union data collection methodology, were identified by that Commission’s study. A fair and safe built environment is one of the building blocks of the Transition pathway for Construction presented by the Commission on 15 March 2023. The pathway acknowledges new types of fire risks brought by new materials, products, and technologies used for the green and digital transition. Fire safety is also an important consideration for the renovation wave and has been addressed by Directive 2018/844/EU of the European Parliament and of the Council of 30 May 2018 amending Directive 2010/31/EU on the energy performance of buildings and Directive 2012/27/EU on energy efficiency (OJ L 156, 19.6.2018, p. 75, ELI: http://data.europa.eu/eli/dir/2018/844/oj). The lack of data is an obstacle for successful policies and a first big milestone to address this issue has been achieved by pilot project PP 03 19 03 ‘Closing data gaps and paving the way for pan-European fire safety efforts’ (EU FireStat), concluded in 2022. This preparatory action is a follow-up of the successful ‘EU FireStat’ pilot project to implement a Union harmonised approach for fire statistics. The implementation of the EU FireStat made it possible to achieve all the assumed and strongly desired goals: — mapping the terminology used and the data collected by the Member States regarding fire events; — proposing a common terminology and method to collect the necessary data in each Member State with a view to obtain meaningful datasets (based on standardised terms and definitions). The developed proposal of a Union harmonised approach for collecting fire statistics is supported by all fire professionals in the Union and relevant authorities from at least 19 Member States who have expressed interest in its implementation. This preparatory action aims to support these authorities in testing the practical implementation and do the groundwork for the complete roll-out of the method and effective data collection at Union level. It will allow to identify the best measures and policies to improve the fire safety of Union citizens in relation with the different Union and national policies (still approximately 5 000 deaths and a multitude of injuries are recorded each year in the Member States in building fires). The preparatory action will also enable support of the work of the Fire Information Exchange Platform (FIEP) run by the Commission, by sharing experiences, knowledge and best practices with regard to improving safety of the built environment all over Europe, and of the Union Civil Protection Knowledge Network run by the Commission to share knowledge between all Member States and third countries involved in the Union Civil Protection Mechanism. 1542/2337 ELI: http://data.europa.eu/eli/budget/2026/72/ojEN OJ L, 26.2.2026 COMMISSION PREPARATORY ACTIONS CHAPTER PA 03 — SINGLE MARKET (cont'd) PA 03 24 (cont'd) PA 03 24 02 (cont'd) The preparatory action will fund the technical support to a set of Member States piloting the implementation of the EU FireStat methodology, the analysis of learnings and possible improvements to the methods, and the development of tools for data collection and consolidation. It will conclude with recommendations for: — the final Union harmonised methodology, — the roll out of the methodology in all Member States, — the consolidation and management of data at Union level.

The report on establishing an EU strategy for sustainable tourism adopted in March 2021 by the European Parliament asked for the implementation of an EU tourism data space, also mentioned in the Tourism Transition Pathways delivered by the Commission. By 2025, 90 % of people who are without formal education should be regular internet users. Nowadays, 67,8 % of people with low or no education use the internet less than once a week. Simultaneously, Members States and companies across Europe should have completed retraining of 20 % of the workforce, leaving only 32 % of workers in need of reskilling. Currently, an estimated 52 % of workers need some form of reskilling. Workers in a range of sectors, especially in tourism have seen their jobs radically change in the past few years, and this was accelerated during the pandemic. This new proposal intends to be a continuation of preparatory action PA 03 24 03 ‘Upskilling and reskilling the Tourism Ecosystem’ tabled during the last budget exercise by the Tourism Task Force. Several results were achieved. The EU competence centre for data management D3Hub supports tourism destinations and their ecosystem (with special focus on SMEs) in their data-driven green and digital transition in order to increase collaboration and knowledge transfer between tourism stakeholders. Existing tools should be taken into account (such as the EU competence centre for data management D3Hub and for support of DMOs, the European Digital Innovation Hubs Network with its newly founded working group on tourism for the support of SMEs, and actions under the call setting up the tourism data space under the Digital Europe Programme) to ensure synergies and avoid overlaps. This project also takes into consideration the Skills Partnership for the Tourism Ecosystem. ELI: http://data.europa.eu/eli/budget/2026/72/oj 1543/2337EN OJ L, 26.2.2026 COMMISSION PREPARATORY ACTIONS CHAPTER PA 03 — SINGLE MARKET (cont'd) PA 03 24 (cont'd) PA 03 24 03 (cont'd) Bearing that in mind, this preparatory intends to: — upskill and reskill DMOs, SMEs and other tourism stakeholders in the management and use of data; — Connect DMOs, SMEs and other tourism stakeholders in order to strengthen existing networks and contact points and to ensure synergies. Parliament also sees this objective as the first phase for the future implementation of a European Agency for Tourism. CHAPTER PA 04 — SPACE Remarks The appropriations under this chapter are intended to finance the implementation of preparatory actions in the field of application of the TFEU and the Euratom Treaty, designed to prepare proposals with a view to the adoption of future actions. Their total corresponds to the level of appropriations shown under Article 04 20 02. Legal basis Article 58(2), point (b), of Regulation (EU, Euratom) 2024/2509 of the European Parliament and of the Council of 23 September 2024 on the financial rules applicable to the general budget of the Union (OJ L, 2024/2509, 26.9.2024, ELI: http://data.europa.eu/eli/reg/2024/2509/oj).

Access to space is an indispensable element of the space ecosystem, without which there is no EU space policy, which supports many political priorities. The preparatory action is expected to focus on the following objectives: — enabling the development of game-changing innovations for European launch solutions while adopting an innovative implementation method, by supporting the different development cycles of technology and showing willingness to concretely use those technologies on future launchers; — facilitating industry’s initiative to propose disruptive technologies. The industry should propose innovative solutions for the next generation of cheaper, more sustainable, agile and resilient access to space. They should do so by focusing on ambitious innovations which are not yet available, and go beyond the state of the art in the international pipelines for access to space. The preparatory action should be implemented through a progressive approach for competitive calls starting with a proof-of-concept phase started in 2024 and continued with a development phase in the period 2025–2027. In the first phase, the Commission launched a contest to award prizes to up to five of the most disruptive and game- changing innovations. As a follow-up, a subsequent preparatory action could be considered in 2025, to select the best three innovations identified in the previous phase, and attribute grants for their initial technology development. This will prepare the ground for a dedicated potential access to space component as part of the future Space programme in the next MFF, where final development and qualification could be supported. Currently, there is no dedicated Union programme existing or in the pipeline for access to space. Some access to space activities supporting Research & Innovation (R&I) are implemented through the Horizon European R&I Programme. However, those actions do not support the full technology development cycle for access to space. Putting in competition several technologies would have an added value as it would accompany the development and maturation of the most disruptive technologies all along the development cycle up to flight model delivery. This is not possible through current Horizon Europe / Space Programmes. This would ultimately prepare the ground for a possible future dedicated access to space programme or a dedicated component in the frame of the future EU Space Programme, identifying access to space as a key EU priority, benefiting to both Union institutional and commercial users.

This action is intended to enable timely adoption of the space secure connectivity services provided by IRIS2 and GOVSATCOM, filling the gap in Union industrial capability to develop high-performance, cheap and secure satellite user terminals. The Union is currently implementing measures to provide governments and citizens with secure connectivity via satellite, through the Union secure connectivity programme (IRIS2) and the GOVSATCOM component of the Union Space Programme. These services will be based on a new generation of state-of-the-art satellites, using orbits, frequencies and signal characteristics that have not been used yet by European industry players. The effective utilisation of such services relies therefore on the prompt availability of user terminals and receivers that are compatible with such characteristics. Such terminals and receivers are particularly important for emerging SatCom Service, seamlessly combining terrestrial and SatCom capabilities, for example in the automotive sector. The objective of this preparatory action is therefore to set the condition for a competitive industry to develop terminals that can be commercialised with minimal additional effort, enabling production and market penetration with the utilisation of open standards. In particular, the action will support companies in reaching maturity and having a solid business plan to provide high- performance, cheap and secure satellite user terminals. Such terminals would be able to: — integrate multiple systems and orbits, including non-geostationary satellites in LEO and possibly MEO; — use the IRIS2frequencies (including Ka-gov); — suit both commercial and governmental services provided by IRIS2; — integrate terrestrial networks, 5G standards and possibly IoT applications; — provide for end-to-end solutions; — adopt all IRIS2secure features. 1546/2337 ELI: http://data.europa.eu/eli/budget/2026/72/ojEN OJ L, 26.2.2026 COMMISSION PREPARATORY ACTIONS CHAPTER PA 04 — SPACE (cont'd) PA 04 24 (cont'd) PA 04 24 02 (cont'd) If successful in the first year, the preparatory action should be implemented through an incremental approach for competitive calls in three phases: — 2024: EUR 5 million on the proof-of-concept and business case development phase; — 2025: EUR 25 million on technology development for the prototype & qualification phase; — 2026: EUR 30 million on industrialisation and commercial prototyping. The beneficiaries of the action would notably be the Union downstream industry, including New Space players like SMEs and start-ups. The Union’s critical dependencies in these technologies — essential for securing communications of European armed forces and governmental institutions — justify the amount allocated to this preparatory action. The three-phase calls ensure a coherent and effective investment journey to deliver on the action’s objectives.

Space systems and services in the Union provide essential services for societal functions and economic activities. In the current geopolitical context, the resilience of space systems and infrastructures is getting critical, as identified by the EU Space Strategy for Security and Defence. The space domain includes all elements relevant for the functioning of space systems and the delivery of space-based services, including the physical space environment, different orbits and spacecraft, their ground and launch infrastructure, radio frequency links, user terminals, information related to and delivered from these space assets, the relating cyber environment and the underlying industrial space sector. Thus, they need to be increasingly resilient and protected. ELI: http://data.europa.eu/eli/budget/2026/72/oj 1547/2337EN OJ L, 26.2.2026 COMMISSION PREPARATORY ACTIONS CHAPTER PA 04 — SPACE (cont'd) PA 04 25 (cont'd) PA 04 25 01 (cont'd) SMEs and start-ups in the field of space provide new technologies, services and capacities, including more and more in support of security-related missions. To ensure their reliability, those companies need to establish appropriate level of protection and cyber-resilience. For this reason, it would be appropriate to launch preparatory work to address particular security needs and propose some supportive measures for SMEs and start-ups by offsetting part of their relevant compliance costs and thus, facilitate the development of European solutions. Resilience measures for the space sector should include better coordination and cooperation between public and private space actors, including information exchange on threats and incidents. It could also be envisaged the development and uptake of relevant security standards and a framework for the exchange of best practices among commercial and governmental players on resilience measures. In this context, the preparatory action could consist of the following actions: — the mapping of existing innovative solutions and services (including costs and availability) that would enable SMEs and start-ups to increase their level of cyber-resilience; — the identification of new potential innovative solutions and services that would enable SMEs and start-ups to increase their level of cyber-resilience; — the identification of technologies and facilities that would need to be developed in the Union such as testing facilities and digital twins, and related roadmaps; — the identification of potential supportive measures at Union and national level that would enable SMEs and start- ups to offset part of the costs related to the enhancement of their level of resilience.

It is a prerequisite for the strategic autonomy of the Union and an indispensable element of the Union space policy. Beyond launchers, ground segment and particularly spaceports are critical components for the Union, considering that part of the Union flagships (Galileo, IRIS2) must be launched from the territory of the Union. At the same time, the diversification of launchers, with new solutions arising, poses the question of spaceport access in the Union. A preparatory action should provide comprehensive assessment of new Union instruments needed and their potential contribution to spaceport development in the Union, develop concepts for an extended Union spaceport range, including technical and design studies, stakeholder consultations, and analysis of best practices, and provide targeted financial support to open access to Union spaceports, monitor progress, and evaluate the effectiveness of Union action and thus consider greater Union intervention in this domain in the future. PA 04 26 02 Preparatory action — EU Platform for Space Traffic Coordination Figures (Differentiated appropriations) 2026 appropriations 2025 appropriations 2024 out-turn Commitments Payments 2 000 000 500 000 Remarks The exponential increase in active satellites, including mega-constellations, amplifies the risk of orbital collisions and necessitates stronger coordination mechanisms. This preparatory action proposes the development of an EU Platform for Space Traffic Coordination, aiming to structure, secure, and expand coordination between satellite operators, public entities, and commercial SSA providers. It will build on existing services developed under the EU Space Surveillance and Tracking (EUSST) framework. Objectives The EU Platform for Space Traffic Coordination will: — extend coordination beyond EUSST members by enabling the collection and processing of key information, including contact details and manoeuvre data, from non-registered or international actors; — facilitate secure, real-time information exchange, ensuring interoperability between different levels of automation, from manual coordination to automated collision avoidance; ELI: http://data.europa.eu/eli/budget/2026/72/oj 1549/2337EN OJ L, 26.2.2026 COMMISSION PREPARATORY ACTIONS CHAPTER PA 04 — SPACE (cont'd) PA 04 26 (cont'd) PA 04 26 02 (cont'd) — reinforce training and capacity building for national authorities and operators, supporting operational readiness and harmonisation of practices across Member States; — support certification mechanisms for commercial SSA services, to ensure reliability, trust, and accountability in a mixed public-private environment; — prevent data pollution, through the implementation of technical measures that check ingested data and detect inconsistencies; — contribute to dual-use coherence, in alignment with Avenue 1 of the STM Communication, which is expected to define civil-military requirements for STM; — test rules of the road: check the potential implementation of the draft rules of the road developed through the CEN standardisation process. Scope and Implementation The preparatory action will establish a coordination platform potentially hosted within the existing EU SST service provision architecture and the link with Users through the front desk (EUSPA). It will prioritise seamless integration and avoid duplication with existing systems. Use cases include: — coordination between EUSST registered users and unregistered satellite operators (public, commercial and potentially military); — ingestion of data from non-EUSST entities; — verification and validation of data integrity prior to use; — set-up exercises to prepare satellites operators and Operational Centres to use the coordination mechanisms, including real-time exercises at the later stage; — exchange with military stakeholders to test the outcomes of the civil-miliary requirements developed in the sub- group one of the STM Communication; — implement a sandbox to assess the draft rules of the road currently in development within the CEN project. Implementation Phases — engagement & Awareness-Raising: Identify needs and expectations of Member States, commercial operators, and SSA providers (public and private), including military stakeholders; — design, develop and test the Platform: develop the system to ensure information exchange incl. user interfaces, and coordination mechanisms and required interoperability with other systems; 1550/2337 ELI: http://data.europa.eu/eli/budget/2026/72/ojEN OJ L, 26.2.2026 COMMISSION PREPARATORY ACTIONS CHAPTER PA 04 — SPACE (cont'd) PA 04 26 (cont'd) PA 04 26 02 (cont'd) — training & Capacity Building: Develop training programmes and practical tools to support authorities and operators in implementing STM coordination practices; — data integrity measures and certification framework: Detect inconsistencies and analyse the different systems used by the stakeholders, promoting the development of an Union-level certification process for SSA, especially for commercial providers; — development of test cases: apply the rules of the road to concrete cases and analyse the outcomes. Expected Outcomes and Long-Term Vision — a secure and scalable Union platform for space traffic coordination, operationally connected to EU SST infrastructure; — increased safety and transparency in orbital operations, including for non-Union and commercial actors. Greater European resilience and autonomy in space operations, consistent with EU strategic goals; — reinforced trust and accountability through certification and data integrity mechanisms; — a stepping stone towards the implementation of a future Union Space Act.

New technologies are changing the opinion-making dynamics and the media landscape dramatically and constantly. They allow easy distribution of information of public interest to wider audiences, thus fostering plurality. That said, the way information is created, searched and distributed online, may also accentuate polarisation as people are exposed to news, sources and ideas that adhere to their expressed preferences. This, in combination with the profit driven platforms, which share data for purely commercial reasons, can significantly undermine the potential to encounter and debate opposing viewpoints, and, as such, may pose a risk for ethical journalism, media pluralism and European democracy itself. At the same time, in the Union, journalists and other media actors can face violence, severe threats, harassment or public shaming because of their investigative activities which seek to protect the public interest from the misuse of power, corruption, human rights violations or criminal activities. According to the Council of Europe Platform for the Protection of Journalism and Safety of Journalists, state actors commit more than half of the cases of abuses against media professionals. We are witnessing a tidal wave of disinformation and propaganda rapidly disseminated through the internet and other media. Given the social and political consequences, it is more crucial than ever that our citizens be critical users of both media and social media and acknowledge the importance of journalism as a cornerstone of democracy. It is necessary to invest adequate financial resources in media and digital literacy and in developing common Union strategies, with journalists, academics, international and civil society organisations. This should be done in order to empower citizens and online users to recognise and be aware of dubious sources of information and to spot and expose deliberately false content and propaganda. ELI: http://data.europa.eu/eli/budget/2026/72/oj 1561/2337EN OJ L, 26.2.2026 COMMISSION PREPARATORY ACTIONS CHAPTER PA 07 — INVESTING IN PEOPLE, SOCIAL COHESION AND VALUES (cont'd) PA 07 24 (cont'd) PA 07 24 01 (cont'd) The ‘European Festival of Journalism and Media Freedom’ (the ‘Festival’) aims to reinforce dialogue, cooperation and partnership in the Union, especially among journalists, media outlets, civil society organisations and media literacy professionals, focusing on the crucial questions of our time. The ‘Festival’ should become a powerful tool to facilitate exchanges between media professionals from across Europe, and an occasion to raise awareness on the valuable but ever more difficult work of journalists and press freedom violations in the Union. The Festival should dedicate special focus to the role and work of journalists and it should represent an opportunity to reflect on the conditions under which journalists carry out their daily work, with a focus on psychological and physical aspects, as well as regulatory conditions. Stronger Union support is pivotal at this time, especially in light of the recently agreed European Media Freedom Act, to promote media pluralism and support the sector of news media in its challenging transition in the digital environment. By the time the Festival will have taken place, the European Media Freedom Act should enter into force, therefore the Festival would be the first occasion to discuss the effects of this specific piece of legislation, together with a broad representation of different actors affected by the regulatory system in place. In light of the above, stable financial support to this preparatory action would allow it to reach its full potential and achieve the expected results for the benefit of the media sector, in particular journalists.

Disinformation, distrust and polarisation are growing political and security challenges for the Union and this is set to worsen with new AI tools becoming readily available to a larger audience. The availability and quality of information is crucial for the effective functioning of society, especially in a time of crisis. A lot of false information is currently being spread in society, especially via social media. One of the main strategies for fighting fake news is debunking, which consists of confronting it with facts and accepted theories. Unfortunately, existing debunking strategies have proven very ineffective, especially because they do not work with individuals that have strong belief in false information. 1562/2337 ELI: http://data.europa.eu/eli/budget/2026/72/ojEN OJ L, 26.2.2026 COMMISSION PREPARATORY ACTIONS CHAPTER PA 07 — INVESTING IN PEOPLE, SOCIAL COHESION AND VALUES (cont'd) PA 07 24 (cont'd) PA 07 24 02 (cont'd) Research shows that Twitter, YouTube, Facebook and other influential social media provide a crucial boost for the international network of disinformation (Smith and Graham 2019). Feeding on fear and chaos, spreading fake news and misinterpreting the data, these agents are stronger than ever (Fernández-Luque and Bau 2015). However, social media provide not only a new set of tools for spreading disinformation but also a great weapon against it. Recent research demonstrates the important role of narratives in framing facts and information in a package that can be easily transmitted across society and how studying narratives can be the key to better understanding how ideas spread across social media and why certain ideas take hold over others. As demonstrated by pilot project PP 07 21 02 ‘European Narrative Observatory to fight disinformation post-COVID-19’, the use of this methodology in understanding the flow of information and how narratives gain traction and spread, represents a valid scientific-based approach. This approach is to be integrated when elaborating policy actions around highly polarised matters and communications activity to inform society and therefore keep disinformation and misinformation at bay. Of particular note is the correlation between increased polarisation in a narrative community and the speed at which disinformation spreads within that community. The preparatory action will support the European Narratives Observatory (the ‘Observatory’) to monitor and analyse how new narratives are created and spread within European public discourse, decipher the emotional values that guide successful narratives, map sources and key actors active in the spreading of these narratives and develop recommendations for effective communication and policy. The use of narrative understanding and analysis is nothing new – having been used very successfully by, for instance, Nelson Mandela in bridging the gap and creating understanding in apartheid South Africa – and the Observatory makes these analyses and understanding more broadly available by providing a value-free map of existing narrative communities and a key to better understanding why certain beliefs are held within certain communities. This makes it easier to communicate effectively and more difficult to spread disinformation. The preparatory action will build on the networks of stakeholders and actors already established under the pilot project such as journalists, AI experts and the main fact-checker communities, such as the European Digital Media Observatory (EDMO), policy makers and policy actors in working sessions to identify ongoing narratives and develop new ones to combat fake news and disinformation, and so to expand areas of the research infrastructure. It will also keep building on the tools for policy-makers and key stakeholders on how insights from the Observatory can help reframe issues in a way that depolarises conversation and makes the narrative communities less receptive to disinformation. ELI: http://data.europa.eu/eli/budget/2026/72/oj 1563/2337EN OJ L, 26.2.2026 COMMISSION PREPARATORY ACTIONS CHAPTER PA 07 — INVESTING IN PEOPLE, SOCIAL COHESION AND VALUES (cont'd) PA 07 24 (cont'd) PA 07 24 02 (cont'd) Building on the work developed by the pilot project, the Observatory will strengthen the existing methodology to expand on the areas and languages analysed and be able to build stronger tools to support key stakeholders - including journalists, fact-checkers, policy-makers – in deploying the insights from the observatory in combatting disinformation and polarisation in public discourse. The current methodology first identifies the dominant narratives by combining natural language processing and more traditional methods of qualitative narratology. By using complex systems science, the Observatory then maps the dynamics of how narratives spread and develop and how the narrative communities interact. This illustrates in real time how narrative communities expand, which narratives grow and take root and how disinformation is deployed in this more complex environment. The third element of the methodology allows the assessment of the deeper correlations and patterns that can be observed with a view to understanding them in more detail. Tools foreseen to be made fully available during the pilot project phase include: a rapid alert system, manuals to combat disinformation and polarisation and trainings for journalists, fact-checkers and stakeholders on how to better make use of insights from the narrative observatory. The preparatory action would expand on these tools and explore the possibilities offered by AI to further improve the suite of tools and analysis. Like the European Media Monitor, the Observatory provides daily analysis of how narratives and narratives communities spread and develop by monitoring hundreds of thousands of users and narratives across different languages, themes and platforms. It is intended to be a tool which bridges the misunderstandings between polarised communities and reduces the spread of disinformation. This might prove particularly relevant in a world where AI is rapidly expanding and threatening the health of our media ecosystem even more. For instance, the work developed so far by the Observatory during its ongoing pilot project phase shows the impact of the global pandemic and Russia’s war of aggression against Ukraine on climate narratives. By working closely with a broad community of stakeholders, including journalists, fact-checkers and organisations working on climate change the Observatory seeks to provide a number of tools and services to combat the spreading of disinformation on climate change by working with narratives. The Observatory is an additional very useful tool in the European toolbox to combat disinformation and polarisation. Remembering the words of Ludwig Wittgenstein: ‘the world we see is defined and given meaning by the words we choose. In short, the world is what we make of it.’ Building on the work already developed during the pilot project phase – including the existing issue-specific areas of the observatory (including climate change, COVID-19 and migration), the tested methodology, the network of stakeholders, journalists and fact-checkers, and the suite of tools made available, the preparatory action would continue to coordinate with other existing European projects and infrastructures including the EDMO and SoBigData ++ to ensure that there is no duplication of effort and that resources are devoted to supporting the investigative and research work and that the infrastructures and technical support available are used. The preparatory action will support action at national and multi-national level focused on detecting and analysing disinformation campaigns. The results of the preparatory action would be made available to other European and national projects and ensure sharing of best practices and recommendations for effective communication. The preparatory action will also continue to make available interactive databases where research findings on narratives and recommendations can be accessed by users and relevant stakeholders. 1564/2337 ELI: http://data.europa.eu/eli/budget/2026/72/ojEN OJ L, 26.2.2026 COMMISSION PREPARATORY ACTIONS CHAPTER PA 07 — INVESTING IN PEOPLE, SOCIAL COHESION AND VALUES (cont'd) PA 07 25 2025 PA 07 25 01 Preparatory action — Building a trustworthy social media sphere: countering disinformation on social media for young Europeans Figures (Differentiated appropriations) 2026 appropriations 2025 appropriations 2024 out-turn Commitments Payments Commitments Payments p.m. 2 992 500 6 000 000 1 500 000 Remarks This appropriation is intended to cover commitments remaining to be settled from previous years under the preparatory action. The Preparatory Action will create a truly social media public sphere specifically for younger European generations, by portraying the sense of togetherness reflected in a common culture, similar lifestyle, and shared values in a target group-appropriate way. Such a sense of European identity is undermined by the continuously increasing intensity of disinformation aiming to create divisions among young Europeans. This preparatory action focuses on social media platforms, which is an environment where disinformation is particularly prevalent, yet which stands for the vast majority of the media diet of younger generations. Support for social media spaces specifically addressing – and, more importantly, actually reaching – young Europeans with engaging and constructive narratives related to the European project to counter divisive disinformation campaigns remains limited, despite its importance for the future of European democracy and identification. During the last European elections for example, widespread dissemination of disinformation challenged the information young people received on social media platforms. To address this issue, an audience-centric approach, highly connected and engaged with the target audience is needed that both addresses deceptive and misleading narratives head-on and fosters societal resilience of young audiences against spurious information sources in the mid- to long- term through media literacy. Efficient tools to foster resilience for this are prebunking methods, which help the target audience to recognise misleading narratives and understanding bias. Low-threshold, tailored content can also support young Europeans to identify credible sources and avoid misleading or fraudulent information. Another component is the examination of the opportunities and risks associated with AI and algorithm feeds, including their impact on digital interactions and mental health on the target audience illustrated by current trends. Attempts to manipulate the public debate through disinformation narratives and information manipulation could be tackled by media and information literacy initiatives e.g. with schools or universities. Young people spend a disproportionate share of their media time on social media whose feeds are powered by algorithms and AI models focusing entirely on commercial logic. This has consequences for current affairs content, which has an increasingly more difficult time achieving any organic reach. To create impact, such content must smartly adapt to this new form of attention economy to contribute, in a technologically healthy way, to networks and platforms where young Europeans gather and engage.

The Preparatory Action aims at increasing relevant content formats, and narratives for a variety of social media platforms that provoke social interaction among young Europeans to foster togetherness and cross-border exchange. Next to fighting illegal content and societal harms online, it is crucial to simultaneously counter it with credible and trustworthy narratives on the Union and Europe, where Europeans drive the actual ‘story-telling’. These narratives will be made available in all EU languages, or in as many as possible, to achieve comprehensive reach across Member States. Additional non-EU languages widely spoken on the territory of Member States are considered an asset. In order to attract younger Europeans to European ideas and values, and in order to truly empower European citizens through digital platforms, the preparatory action will support curated online spaces on social media to create, collect and adapt narratives that deal creatively with topics that are of proven interest to young Europeans, and which will contextualise them in order to make them compelling and appealing to the target group. According to several recent multi-country studies , concerns voiced by young Europeans converge on a number of common themes. For instance, the cluster around issues such as the cost-of-living crisis, jobs, and social security is influenced by the experience of inflation and the reversal in interest rates since the second half of 2021. Similarly, young people’s intense longing for peace and mental wellbeing was certainly heightened by the experience of long Covid-19 lockdowns and related civil strife, and ultimately by Russia’s war of aggression against Ukraine as well as other recent international conflicts. The wish for wholesale stability and security across all areas of life is perhaps the most important motivation across the board: From physical and mental health to international relations, and from living conditions to the labour market. On a secondary level come issues such as the climate crisis, environmental degradation, as well as social and economic inequality, exclusion, discrimination, and an ever more divisive public sphere. Young people feel increasingly cowed by the current poly-crisis. The European added-value is created by comparing and contrasting regional experiences and points of view on matters of pan-European importance. The aim is to address relevant Union-level topics, and at the same time give a forum to local as well as community perspectives, allowing young users to identify strongly with the content. The preparatory action will pay particular attention to addressing non-cosmopolitan audiences and young Europeans with fewer opportunities in their mother tongue. This ambitious pan-European and multilingual initiative will stimulate offline and online, open, true, deep, and constructive debates about current and future life in Europe among young Europeans. By using innovative formats on digital platforms, with the ultimate goal of creating greater awareness about European visions, events and realities and greater engagement of Europeans towards European values and ideas, the action subsequently contributes to a more active and resilient civil society. 1566/2337 ELI: http://data.europa.eu/eli/budget/2026/72/ojEN OJ L, 26.2.2026 COMMISSION PREPARATORY ACTIONS CHAPTER PA 07 — INVESTING IN PEOPLE, SOCIAL COHESION AND VALUES (cont'd) PA 07 25 (cont'd) PA 07 25 02 Preparatory action — Citizen facing European TV and Video News Portal for Streaming, Search and Translation of European TV and video news and political documentaries produced or transmitted by accredited public and private media in Member States Figures (Differentiated appropriations) 2026 appropriations 2025 appropriations 2024 out-turn Commitments Payments Commitments Payments p.m. 2 750 000 5 500 000 1 375 000 Remarks This appropriation is intended to cover commitments remaining to be settled from previous years under the preparatory action. Following the expected results of the first cycle, the next phase should be dedicated to the development and deployment of a first demonstrator. Based on the defined objectives of the pilot project, this should include Artificial Intelligence tools as an underlying technology that goes beyond the mere translation and subtitling of content. The first demonstrator should already explore the possibility of using AI to curate content, e.g. by generating trailers and thumbnails of available content where possible. Technological developments, including generative AI, should form a main element of the Portal’s search engine and recommendation system, among others. As this could be realised in many ways, the first demonstrator should explore and apply those potential avenues. Key elements are: a non- discriminatory search function, the development of algorithms that place public value at the centre, and a high level of transparency in translation systems, which is necessary to ensure trust in content. It is not only the speed at which developments are taking place in this area - but also the fact that there are no algorithms that are non-discriminatory and in line with European values - that make it necessary to develop these independently.

Russia’s war of aggression against Ukraine, accompanied by an information war for minds and hearts, including in Ukraine, other candidate countries, the Union, and in Russia and Belarus, coupled with the elimination of independent media inside Russia and Belarus, presents a responsibility for the Union to take leadership for safeguarding media plurality and independence in the wider regional context. With freedom of expression as one of the Union’s fundamental values, the Union has now become a major hub for those in Russia and Belarus striving for freedom of expression and democracy. This preparatory action builds on the pilot project of the same name and, by closing the gap in existing Union financing programs, aims to provide continuous support for independent media in exile as long as it takes for democracy to prevail. The preparatory action answers the multiple calls from the European Parliament, the Council and the Commission to support independent media. 1568/2337 ELI: http://data.europa.eu/eli/budget/2026/72/ojEN OJ L, 26.2.2026 COMMISSION PREPARATORY ACTIONS CHAPTER PA 07 — INVESTING IN PEOPLE, SOCIAL COHESION AND VALUES (cont'd) PA 07 25 (cont'd) PA 07 25 04 (cont'd) Despite external and internal challenges in the area of press freedom, the Union remains the world's safest place for media and journalists to do their work. Independent journalists and entire editorial newsrooms from Russia and Belarus have already fled and reallocated to the Union. They are continuing their work in the fight for democracy in their home countries, but from a safe area within the Union, where they are not at risk of brutal repressions, reprisals, and imminent imprisonment for telling the truth. The grip of power in Russia and Belarus has become stronger in these past two war years. The situation is deteriorating, and information space is shrinking. Many journalists, civil society, and opposition leaders have been silenced, some forever. At the same time, support is needed also for Ukrainian media and their staff who have come to the Union together with war refugees from Ukraine. Media organisations face an immediate lack of resources to continue their activities, challenges of establishing viable business models in the face of increasing closure and constraints in the Russian-Belarusian information and physical space, as well as a general decline in people's purchasing power as a result of the war. Unlike emergency solutions, where like-minded partners played a major role in solving acute financial and resource problems of media relocating to the Union in a matter of first months, this preparatory action aims to offer a predictable support mechanism that provides core support, opportunities for innovation and development in the longer term. It will improve and expand support provided by the pilot project. The goal of the preparatory action is to promote the preservation of a pluralistic media environment of the affected countries, even while journalists and media are working from exile. The broader long-term aim is to make Europe a safe place by helping the people of Russia and Belarus in their democratic aspirations, where independent media play an indispensable role. The preparatory action aims to build on the precise support needs identified by the pilot project and subsequently to provide appropriate support for independent media and journalists from Ukraine, Russia, and Belarus who have relocated and are working from Member States by: — continuously assessing and re-evaluating the needs and challenges of independent newsrooms and professional journalists who have relocated their operations. This becomes particularly crucial given the deteriorating security situation in their respective home countries, which introduces additional layer of complexity, including the imperative to keep themselves, their sources and audience secure; — establishing, empowering, and extending support networks across multiple Member States to offer tailored assistance to the exile newsrooms and journalists. Overall, the support aims to cultivate conditions for exile media to sustain their work. This includes, but not limited to, aiding the exploration and introduction of viable business models, introducing innovative technical and content format solutions to reach audiences (including those with possibly limited access to the internet and other resources), as well as seeking synergies and promoting sharing of best practices, promoting networking (in particularly among exile media), all while ensuring media independence and fostering plurality.

Through sport activities and interventions, this preparatory action will focus on encouraging community integration of children and youth. By improving their mental well-being by attending sport sessions, these individuals will eventually become ready to adjust to their new environment. Sport with its power of bringing people together will help with interaction with the host community, easier integration into the education system or entering the labour market. To achieve the best results those programmes should be organised at the local, grassroots level. Activities, games and sports must be designed in order to meet specific social and psychosocial goals. They need to be age appropriate, culturally appropriate and be considered in respect to the gender roles in the community. Building on the existing physical capacities of participants, experienced coaches will help them to feel comfortable by encouraging them to perform skills that they already know. Therefore, cooperation between sport organisations and social/psychological centres would be required. The main focus group consisted of children and young people affected by humanitarian crises and mass migration processes in the context of war. This pilot project would also generate inclusion in the public space and promote the exchange of cultures and traditions of different ethnic groups. In order to reach the highest effectiveness possible, those programs should be implemented at the local level, involving only one member State, which is not possible under the current Erasmus+ Sport actions.

The objective of this preparatory action is to support the development and deployment of a coordination centre for an EU Biodiversity Observation Network. Biodiversity is fundamental to human well-being and a healthy planet yet it is declining faster than at any time in human history. The biosphere is being altered to an unparalleled degree, eroding the health of ecosystems and flow of ecosystem services, on which our very existence depends. The drivers behind this decline are anthropogenic, namely land and sea use, direct exploitation of organisms, climate change, pollution and invasion of alien species. Swift actions are needed to mitigate them and put biodiversity back on the path of recovery. To bend the curve on global biodiversity loss, nearly 200 countries agreed in December 2022 on new biodiversity goals and targets, in the so-called Kunming-Montreal Global Biodiversity Framework (GBF). The Union is firmly committed to leading by example. The global framework is well aligned with the EU Biodiversity Strategy for 2030, and other key flagship initiatives of the European Green Deal. The implementation of the biodiversity policy frameworks has to be well monitored, in order to ensure effective tracking of the progress towards the goals and targets. The robust policy monitoring will depend on the regular and frequent provision of high-quality data and information, underpinned by a systematic field observation of biodiversity over a long time frame. This is not currently the case in the Union. Biodiversity data of good quality which is available at an adequate spatial and temporal scale is scarce, leading to significant knowledge gaps. While it clearly demonstrates the dire state of biodiversity in the Union, the existing data is insufficient to generate actionable knowledge – knowledge that enables development and deployment of well targeted actions to tackle the drivers of biodiversity loss, in a cost-effective manner and at different spatial scales. Furthermore, biodiversity data collection is dispersed among a wide range of non-governmental organisations, public authorities, research networks and the private sector mainly for environmental impact assessments. Most biodiversity observation programmes do not have the necessary spatial and temporal resolution to assess the state and the trends of species and habitats and their dependence on the pressures exerted upon them. Moreover, there is no common objective or mandate across all the actors involved in the data collection, curation, modelling and use. The challenge is therefore also to harness scientific advances and bring together Member States, stakeholders, various institutions, and other organisations or initiatives to strengthen current efforts and devise a structured and cost-effective Union-level approach to biodiversity observation. 1574/2337 ELI: http://data.europa.eu/eli/budget/2026/72/ojEN OJ L, 26.2.2026 COMMISSION PREPARATORY ACTIONS CHAPTER PA 09 — ENVIRONMENT AND CLIMATE ACTION (cont'd) PA 09 24 (cont'd) PA 09 24 01 (cont'd) The EU Biodiversity Strategy put in place the Knowledge Centre for Biodiversity (KCBD), with an aim to organise and mobilise existing knowledge in systematic monitoring of the policy implementation. However, no dedicated mechanism or instrument exists at Union level to coordinate and foster the generation and use of high-quality data that underpins that biodiversity knowledge base and to provide guidance and trainings on the metrics to be used. This is a major bottleneck for an effective implementation of the EU Biodiversity Strategy for 2030 and Union commitments to the GBF, in particular for its mainstreaming goals. More than ever, the Union needs to step up the efforts in raising the capacity for biodiversity observation. First steps have been taken through the Horizon 2020 project EuropaBON. This preparatory action proposes a design for a European Biodiversity Observation Network to monitor the status and trends of European biodiversity and ecosystems. It has identified (i) the key users’ needs, (ii) the major monitoring initiatives in place, (iii) the minimum list of essential biodiversity variables to be monitored, and (iv) the gaps and bottlenecks still hampering a fluid and functional biodiversity data collection and analysis flow in Europe. Besides data gaps, another major bottleneck is the use of existing data, which is not maximised. Integration of current biodiversity data flows across all variables and realms is insufficient. Relevant institutions often miss advanced statistical and modelling technical skills to coordinate such integration. Only half of the monitoring programmes evaluated by the EuropaBON project have partial automatisation and harmonisation of the data streams and, again, only half of them have sufficient data available to derive essential biodiversity variables. The EuropaBON project is also developing a blueprint for a so-called Union- level coordination centre that would help to address the identified shortcomings and underpin the implementation of the observation network. The EuropaBON work is a welcome development in addressing deficiencies in securing high quality biodiversity data in the Union. However, no clear follow-up steps have been planned by the Commission to operationalise it by testing and piloting its outputs jointly with Member States, and to address options for a coordination centre or a virtual platform. The action is scheduled to finish in 2023, and it is essential to secure timely and ambitious follow-up in 2024 through this preparatory action, in order to put concrete solutions in place and secure adequate data for the assessment of implementation of the EU Biodiversity Strategy. The preparatory action will address the urgent need for coordination, integration, harmonisation and strengthening of biodiversity data collection and analysis, in order to inform policymaking at local, national, European and international level. The preparatory action will focus on the operationalisation of a set of biodiversity variables with a direct application in policy and decision-making. This will include capacity building, including professional taxonomic expertise and citizen science. The preparatory action will contribute to development of the entire data-to-knowledge chain based on direct observations and transparent scientific approaches, and it will prove the added value of investing in clear access and coordination of biodiversity data. It will serve a more robust implementation and impact assessment of public policies, and the elimination of certain barriers for investors and firms to identify nature positive capital flows.

Specifically, the preparatory action will support the following activities: — piloting and testing a Union biodiversity observation service, featuring key functions and services as proposed under the EuropaBON project, by building on, connecting and reinforcing existing institutions, and thereby contributing to the development of the Global Knowledge Support Service for Biodiversity (GKSSB) adopted at the Convention on Biological Diversity COP15; — implementing workflows that deliver harmonised Union-wide biodiversity data necessary to build policy- relevant indicators (see EU dashboard and global monitoring framework for the Kunming-Montreal Global Biodiversity Framework); — providing technical assistance to Member States regarding the implementation of the biodiversity observation network proposed by the EuropaBON project and contributing to the GKSSB; — building capacity for biodiversity observation by providing trainings for taxonomic experts and strengthening citizen science networks (to be shared with the GKSSB). Besides EuropaBON, this preparatory action will also build on and contribute to other relevant Horizon Europe projects as well as the pilot project ‘Assessing Butterflies in Europe’ and preparatory action PA 09 20 01 ‘EU pollinator monitoring and indicators’. It will be implemented in close collaboration with the KCBD and the European Environment Agency.

European Economic Area, the EEA EFTA States take part in a wide range of Union policies covered by heading 1, 2, 3, 5, 6 and 7 of the multiannual financial framework in exchange for a financial contribution to operating appropriations calculated by applying a ‘proportionality factor’. This proportionality factor is equal to the sum of the ratios obtained by dividing the gross domestic product at market prices of each EEA EFTA State by the gross domestic product at market prices of all the Member States plus that of the EEA EFTA State concerned. For 2026 the proportionality factor is estimated at 2,64 % (on the basis of 2024 figures), i.e. 2,43 % for Norway, 0,17 % for Iceland and 0,04 % for Liechtenstein. For budget lines that only cover payments on commitments of the previous programming period, the factor is estimated at 2,23 % (on the basis of 2024 figures), i.e. 2,05 % for Norway, 0,14 % for Iceland and 0,04 % for Liechtenstein. These financial contributions will not be formally entered into the budget; each budget heading relating to activities in which the EEA EFTA States take part will refer to the EFTA contribution as a memorandum item. A summary table, listing the budget headings concerned and the amounts of the EFTA contribution for each budget heading, is published as an annex to the general budget of the Union. The total EEA EFTA contribution for the operational part for 2026 is estimated at about EUR 631 570 983 in commitment appropriations. The EEA EFTA States will also share in the administrative expenditure directly linked to the implementation of these policies. 1878/2337 ELI: http://data.europa.eu/eli/budget/2026/72/ojEN OJ L,

OPERATIONS — BORROWING-AND-LENDING OPERATIONS GUARANTEED BY THE UNION BUDGET (BY WAY OF INDICATION) ELI: http://data.europa.eu/eli/budget/2026/72/oj 1899/2337EN OJ L, 26.2.2026 BORROWING-AND-LENDING OPERATIONS — BORROWING-AND-LENDING OPERATIONS GUARANTEED BY THE UNION BUDGET (BY WAY OF INDICATION) A. INTRODUCTION This Annex is drawn up in accordance with Article 52(1) and the reporting requirements laid down in Article 52(1), point (d)(iii), of the Financial Regulation. This Annex covers capital operations and debt management in 2024. In that context, it provides a comprehensive overview of borrowing and lending operations. The overview provides inter alia detailed information on maturities, schedule of payments, interest due on aggregate level, the investor base on the primary market, and, where applicable, the dimension and costs of the common liquidity pool underpinning the diversified funding strategy, as well as the borrowing plan. In terms of the impact to the Union budget these operations give rise to lending (loans), financial liabilities (borrowings) and contingent liabilities. Budgetary guarantees, i.e. guarantees provided to different implementing partners under the European Fund for Strategic Investments (EFSI), European Fund for Sustainable Development Plus (EFSD+) and external lending mandates, are not presented in this Annex. Additional information on these instruments, their operations and effects on the Union budget are provided in the corresponding working document attached to the draft budget pursuant to Article 41(5) of the Financial Regulation. Additionally, an overarching overview and headroom assessment is provided in the specific annual report pursuant to Article 256 of the Financial Regulation. In addition, financial liabilities borne by the Union budget as a result of borrowing operations financing non-repayable support under the Recovery and Resilience Facility (RRF) as well as the use of borrowing proceeds for the financing of other Union programmes under NextGenerationEU are covered in detail in this Annex. This Annex provides in particular an overview of the amount and composition of borrowing activities and associated disbursements of loans as of 31 December 2024. There are two main types of loans (lending) financed through borrowing-and-lending operations: — loans to provide financial assistance to third countries(i.e. in 2024 outstanding loans related to: macro-financial assistance programme (MFA) loans, policy-based loans and Euratom loans to third countries); and — loans to provide financial assistance to Member States (i.e. in 2024 outstanding loans related to: Balance of Payments (BoP) loans, European Financial Stabilisation Mechanism (EFSM) loans, Euratom loans, SURE loans, RRF loans). To finance these programmes the Commission uses as of January 2023, a unified funding approach implemented through a diversified funding strategy, which delinks the disbursement of loans to a beneficiary from the issuance of the EU bonds. The diversified funding strategy was established for NextGenerationEU in 2021, but in December 2022 and in accordance with Regulation (EU, Euratom) 2022/2434 of the European Parliament and of the Council of 6 December 2022 amending Regulation (EU, Euratom) 2018/1046 as regards the establishment of an diversified funding strategy as a general borrowing method (OJ L 319, 13.12.2022, p. 1, ELI: http://data. europa.eu/eli/reg/2022/2434/oj), it was extended to also cover programmes of financial assistance for which the basic acts entered into force on or after 9 November 2022, thereby creating a unified funding approach to finance these programmes. Back-to-back lending – which is the approach that the Commission used before, in which each loan is funded with a corresponding EU bond that fully matches the Union loan in terms of its maturity, interest rate and repayment schedule – remains still possible in duly justified cases. The MFA+ instrument for Ukraine, which came into force on 14 December 2022, was the first programme to which this diversified funding strategy was extended. The repayments by the beneficiaries are used to service the debt of the Union, giving rise to contingent liabilities. Whether or not these contingent liabilities result in actual losses, and the size of any such losses, will depend on future events which are difficult to predict. Due to the delinking of the loan disbursements from the issuance of the EU bonds, operations under the diversified funding strategy also give rise to financial liabilities in the Union budget. 1900/2337 ELI: http://data.europa.eu/eli/budget/2026/72/ojEN OJ L, 26.2.2026 BORROWING-AND-LENDING OPERATIONS — BORROWING-AND-LENDING OPERATIONS GUARANTEED BY THE UNION BUDGET (BY WAY OF INDICATION) For loans granted, the total outstanding nominal amount on 31 December 2024 was EUR 296 390 940 273, of which a total of EUR 249 241 418 845 referred to operations inside the Union and EUR 47 149 521 428 outside the Union. Consequently, the gross carrying amounts of outstanding operations covered by the Union budget totalled EUR 299 109 921 601,97 (nominal amounts including accrued interest and amortised costs) of which a total of EUR 251 457 409 081,41 referred to operations inside the Union and EUR 47 652 512 520,56 outside the Union. For those loans granted outside the Union, the expected credit loss recognised in the Union’s financial statements on 31 December 2024 amounts to EUR 15 996 212 108,53. The expected credit loss is not reflected in the gross carrying amount of the loans. For borrowing operations, the total outstanding nominal amount on 31 December 2024 was EUR 601 303 000 000 of which a total of EUR 155 593 000 000 was financed under back-to-back operations and EUR 445 710 000 000 was financed under the unified funding approach used to finance loans and non-repayable support under NextGenerationEU, MFA+ for Ukraine and MFA for Egypt and Ukraine Facility. Consequently, the outstanding operations covered by the Union budget totalled EUR 594 027 710 227 in gross carrying amount (nominal amount including accrued interest and amortised costs). Since the implementation of the unified funding approach in 2023, it is not possible to make a distinction between funding of operations inside and outside the Union as the bond proceeds are allocated to a central funding pool before being allocated to relevant programmes. In 2024 issuances of EU bonds were executed via auctions and syndications in line with pre-announced planning, taking into account expected disbursement needs. By the end of 2024, EU bonds issued via syndications had in total attracted more than 1 900 different investors from over 70 different countries. Over 65 % of investment in EU bond syndications has come from investors located in the Union, and almost 20 % has come from international investors operating from the UK. The remainder has come from international investors in Asia or other non-EU European countries like Norway and Switzerland. Over 65 % of the EU bonds issued have been obtained by buy-and-hold investors (i.e. fund managers, insurance companies, pension funds and central banks / official institutions). There is also a good representation of investors wanting different maturities. Central banks / official institutions and bank treasuries (which usually prefer to invest in bonds with maturities of up to 10 years) account for about 47 % of purchases of EU bonds in the primary markets in syndicated transactions, while pension funds and insurance companies (which prefer maturities of above 10 years) account for over 20%. The annual average cash holdings in the central funding pool for 2024 stood at EUR 40 617 730 700 reflecting slower than initially planned cash outflows. Liquidity holdings generated a net income of EUR 140 000 000 from January to December 2024, which was shared proportionately between the Union budget and loan beneficiaries (RRF and Ukraine under MFA+). In line with the methodology for calculating the interest costs incurred by beneficiaries of funding under the diversified funding strategy as set out by Commission Decision (EU) 2024/1974(1), the cost of funding for loans under the time compartment corresponding to the period January to July 2024 was 3,2 % and for the time compartment corresponding to the period July to December 2024 was 3,0 %. In relation to the borrowing plan for operations after the end of 2024, in 2025 the Annual Borrowing Decision allows the Commission to issue up to a maximum amount of EUR 170 000 000 000 in long-term funding. The Commission intends to issue EUR 90 000 000 000 of long-term EU bonds between January and June 2025, and EUR 70 000 000 000 between July and December 2025. These amounts were almost entirely raised by December 2025. (1) The cost allocation methodology distinguishes three different cost categories: (i) cost of funding to finance grant and loan disbursements calculated for six-monthly time compartments, (ii) cost of holding and managing liquidity, and (iii) administrative costs. The interest costs related to NextGenerationEU-funded non-repayable support, such as RRF grants and top-ups to other programmes, are charged to the budget. Conversely, interest costs related to loans funded under the unified funding approach are charged to individual beneficiaries or guarantors per instalment.

Currently, this ceiling stands at 1,4 % of EU gross national income (GNI). The available headroom under the own resources ceiling is the difference between this ceiling and the funds that the Union actually needs to cover the expenses foreseen by the Union budget in a given year. (2) The common provisioning fund holds safety buffers for several funding programmes, such as the MFA to third countries. The fund is financed from the Union budget, within the expenditure ceiling of the MFF. As a general rule, for any lending to a third country, the Union budget contributes 9 % of the amount lent to the common provisioning fund. This contribution serves as coverage. Further guarantees may be added on top of this contribution in case additional protection is needed. (3) To ensure the Union’s ability to repay the funds borrowed on capital markets or from financial institutions, Member States may provide guarantees for loans to Member States and to third countries with an increased credit risk. Such additional layers of protection are provided for in the basic acts by which the legislator authorises Union’s financial assistance programmes.

Technical notes on tables Exchange rate: the amounts in column 2 ‘Equivalent at date of disbursement’ are converted at the rate applicable on the date of signature. As regards refinancing operations, Table 1 shows both the initial operation (e.g. in 1979) and the replacement operation (e.g. in 1986), the amount for the latter being converted at the rate of the initial operation. The resulting duplication affects the annual figures but is eliminated in the total. All other amounts are converted at the rate applicable on 31 December 2024. Column 3 ‘Initial amount paid up to 31 December 2024’: with reference to 1986, for example, this column shows the cumulative total of all amounts received up to 31 December 2024 under loans signed in 1986 (Table 1), including refinancing (which produces some duplication). Column 4 ‘Amount outstanding on 31 December 2024’: these are net figures, with no duplication as a result of refinancing operations. They are obtained by subtracting from the column 3 figure the cumulative total of repayments made up to 31 December 2024, including repayments in respect of refinancing operations (total not given in the tables). Column 15 = column 4 – column 5. Column 16 = column 4 – column 5 – column 6.

The first tranche of EUR 100 000 000 was disbursed in October 2017 and the second and last tranche of EUR 100 000 000 was disbursed in July 2019. On 15 January 2020, the European Parliament and the Council decided to provide further macro-financial assistance to Jordan in the form of loans for a maximum amount of EUR 500 000 000 in two instalments with principal amounts of EUR 250 000 000 and EUR 250 000 000 respectively. On 25 May 2020, the European Parliament and the Council decided to provide further macro-financial assistance to Jordan for a maximum total amount of EUR 200 000 000 in view of the urgency entailed by the exceptional circumstances caused by the COVID-19 pandemic and the associated economic consequences. A first tranche of EUR 250 000 000 was disbursed in November 2020 and a second tranche of EUR 250 000 000 was disbursed in July 2021. On 25 May 2020, the European Parliament and the Council decided to provide further macro-financial assistance to Jordan and Tunisia in view of the urgency entailed by the exceptional circumstances caused by the COVID-19 pandemic and the associated economic consequences. The assistance was provided in the form of loans for a maximum total amount of EUR 600 000 000 (two loan instalments of EUR 300 000 000). A first instalment of EUR 300 000 000 was disbursed in June 2021 and the remaining second instalment of EUR 300 000 000 was disbursed in May 2022. On 12 April 2024, the Council decided to provide EUR 1 000 000 000 in macro-financial assistance to Egypt to cover part of its financing needs for the fiscal year 2024/2025 and ensure macroeconomic stability, while supporting its home-grown reform agenda in conjunction with the ongoing International Monetary Fund (IMF) programme. This support was disbursed to Egypt in December 2024 in the form of one loan instalment following the fulfilment of the policy conditions agreed with the Union under the programme. 3. Effect on the budget Since the entry into force of Council Regulation (EC, Euratom) No 2728/94 of 31 October 1994 establishing a Guarantee Fund for external actions (OJ L 293, 12.11.1994, p. 1, ELI: http://data.europa.eu/eli/reg/1994/2728/oj), subsequently amended by Council Regulation (EC, Euratom) No 480/2009 (OJ L 145, 10.6.2009, p. 10, ELI: http://data.europa.eu/eli/reg/2009/480/oj) and Regulation (EU) 2018/409 (OJ L 76, 19.3.2018, p. 1, ELI: http://data.europa.eu/eli/reg/2018/409/oj), any defaults are covered by that fund within the limit of the amount available. Pursuant to Article 32(9) of Regulation (EU) 2021/947 of the European Parliament and of the Council of 9 June 2021 establishing the Neighbourhood, Development and International Cooperation Instrument – Global Europe, amending and repealing Decision No 466/2014/EU of the European Parliament and of the Council and repealing Regulation (EU) 2017/1601 of the European Parliament and of the Council and Council Regulation (EC, Euratom) No 480/2009 (OJ L 209, 14.6.2021, p. 1, ELI: http:// data.europa.eu/eli/reg/2021/947/oj). the net assets on 31 July 2021 of the Guarantee fund for external actions were to be transferred into the common provisioning fund. That transfer took place on 1 August 2021. The effect on the budget is thus limited to one annual payment to or, exceptionally, from the Guarantee Fund to maintain its target amount of 9 % of the guaranteed operations. In the event of defaults by loan beneficiaries, the payments for Union debt related to MFA are covered up to a level of 9 % of the total amount due by the common provisioning fund. In the event that the common provisioning fund is fully used up, the Union budget must replenish the provisioning fund to the minimum provisioning rate of 9 %. II.

That amount is to be committed and paid into the common provisioning fund under the multiannual financial framework 2021–2027, laid down in Council Regulation (EU, Euratom) 2020/2093 of 17 December 2020 laying down the multiannual financial framework for the years 2021 to 2027 (OJ L 433 I, 22.12.2020, p. 11, ELI: http://data.europa.eu/eli/reg/2020/2093/oj).

As regards the coverage of the financial liability arising from the EUR 18 000 000 000 of support in the form of loans to Ukraine for 2023 through the MFA + instrument and the EUR 33 000 000 000 in the form of loans under the Ukraine Facility, Regulation (EU Euratom) 2020/2093 has been amended to allow, as a guarantee, the mobilisation of budgetary resources over and above the multiannual financial framework ceilings and up to the limits of the ceilings referred to in Article 3(1) and (2) of Council Decision (EU, Euratom) 2020/2053 of 14 December 2020 on the system of own resources of the European Union and repealing Decision 2014/335/EU, Euratom (OJ L 424, 15.12.2020, p. 1, ELI: http://data.europa.eu/eli/dec/2020/2053/oj). In addition, for the period from 1 January 2023 to 31 December 2027, Regulation (EU) 2024/792 provides for an interest rate subsidy by the Union for the loans under that Regulation. Member States may provide contributions to the interest rate subsidy. These contributions will constitute external assigned revenue in accordance with Article 21(2), point (a), of the Financial Regulation.

ELI: http://data.europa.eu/eli/budget/2026/72/oj 1923/2337EN OJ L, 26.2.2026 BORROWING-AND-LENDING OPERATIONS — BORROWING-AND-LENDING OPERATIONS GUARANTEED BY THE UNION BUDGET (BY WAY OF INDICATION) On 25 May 2020, the European Parliament and the Council decided to provide further macro-financial assistance to Albania, Bosnia and Herzegovina, Kosovo, Montenegro and North Macedonia in view of the urgency entailed by the exceptional circumstances caused by the COVID-19 pandemic and the associated economic consequences. The assistance was provided in the form of loans for a maximum total amount of EUR 180 000 000 for Albania (two loan instalments of EUR 90 000 000), EUR 250 000 000 for Bosnia and Herzegovina (two loan instalments of EUR 125 000 000), EUR 100 000 000 Kosovo (two loan instalments of EUR 50 000 000), EUR 60 000 000 for Montenegro (two loan instalments of EUR 30 000 000), and EUR 160 000 000 for North Macedonia (two loan instalments of EUR 80 000 000).

Effect on the budget Since the entry into force of Council Regulation (EC, Euratom) No 2728/94 of 31 October 1994 establishing a Guarantee Fund for external actions (OJ L 293, 12.11.1994, p. 1, ELI: http://data.europa.eu/eli/reg/1994/2728/oj), subsequently amended by Council Regulation (EC, Euratom) No 480/2009 (OJ L 145, 10.6.2009, p. 10, ELI: http://data.europa.eu/eli/reg/2009/480/oj) and Regulation (EU) 2018/409 (OJ L 76, 19.3.2018, p. 1, ELI: http://data.europa.eu/eli/reg/2018/409/oj), any defaults are covered by that fund within the limit of the amount available. Pursuant to Article 32(9) of Regulation (EU) 2021/947 of the European Parliament and of the Council of 9 June 2021 establishing the Neighbourhood, Development and International Cooperation Instrument – Global Europe, amending and repealing Decision No 466/2014/EU of the European Parliament and of the Council and repealing Regulation (EU) 2017/1601 of the European Parliament and of the Council and Council Regulation (EC, Euratom) No 480/2009 (OJ L 209, 14.6.2021, p. 1, ELI: http:// data.europa.eu/eli/reg/2021/947/oj). the net assets on 31 July 2021 of the Guarantee fund for external actions were to be transferred into the common provisioning fund. That transfer took place on 1 August 2021. The effect on the budget is thus limited to one annual payment to or, exceptionally, from the Guarantee Fund to maintain its target amount of 9 % of the guaranteed operations. In the event of defaults by loan beneficiaries, the payments for Union debt related to MFA are covered up to a level of 9 % of the total amount due by the common provisioning fund. In the event that the common provisioning fund is fully used up, the Union budget must replenish the provisioning fund to the minimum provisioning rate of 9 %. V. EURATOM BORROWINGS TO IMPROVE THE DEGREE OF EFFICIENCY AND SAFETY OF NUCLEAR POWER STATIONS IN THE COUNTRIES OF CENTRAL AND EASTERN EUROPE AND THE COMMONWEALTH OF INDEPENDENT STATES 1. Legal basis Council Decision 77/270/Euratom of 29 March 1977 empowering the Commission to issue Euratom loans for the purpose of contributing to the financing of nuclear power stations (OJ L 88, 6.4.1977, p. 9, ELI: http://data.europa.eu/eli/dec/1977/270/oj). 1924/2337 ELI: http://data.europa.eu/eli/budget/2026/72/ojEN OJ L, 26.2.2026 BORROWING-AND-LENDING OPERATIONS — BORROWING-AND-LENDING OPERATIONS GUARANTEED BY THE UNION BUDGET (BY WAY OF INDICATION) 2. Description Pursuant to Decision 94/179/Euratom (OJ L 84, 29.3.1994, p. 41, ELI: http://data.europa.eu/eli/dec/1994/179/oj), the European Union extends the scope of Euratom borrowings under Decision 77/270/Euratom to the improvement of the degree of efficiency and safety of nuclear power stations in the countries of central and eastern Europe and the Commonwealth of Independent States. The maximum amount of Euratom borrowings for the Member States and third countries remains fixed at EUR 4 000 000 000. In 2000, the Commission decided on a loan for Kozloduy in Bulgaria (EUR 212 500 000) and the last instalment was in 2006. In 2000, the Commission granted a loan to K2R4 in Ukraine but reduced the loan amount to the EUR equivalent of USD 83 000 000 in 2004. K2R4 was granted a loan of EUR 39 000 000 (first tranche) in 2007, USD 22 000 000 in 2008, and USD 10 335 000 in 2009 under the 2004 Commission Decision. In 2004, the Commission decided on a loan for Cernavodă in Romania (EUR 223 500 000). A first instalment of EUR 100 000 000 and a second one of EUR 90 000 000 were disbursed in 2005 and the last one of EUR 33 500 000 in 2006. In 2013, the Commission decided to grant a loan to Energoatom, Ukraine, of EUR 300 000 000 for safety upgrades of nuclear power plants. The loan will be provided in cooperation with the EBRD, which provides another EUR 300 000 000 loan in parallel. The conditions precedent to the initial availability of the loan have been assessed as fully met in 2015 and the loan was declared effective. On 27 May 2015, the Commission authorised disbursements under the Euratom loan to Energoatom in the amount of up to EUR 100 000 000, subject to Energoatom having drawn the loan amount granted by the EBRD in an amount not less than EUR 50 000 000. These loans benefit from State guarantees which cover 100% of the amounts outstanding at year end. The first tranche of EUR 50 000 000 was disbursed in May 2017 and the second tranche of EUR 50 000 000 was disbursed in July 2018. A third tranche of EUR 100 000 000 was disbursed in July 2020 and a final tranche of EUR 100 000 000 was disbursed in December 2021. 3. Effect on the budget Since the entry into force of Council Regulation (EC, Euratom) No 2728/94 of 31 October 1994 establishing a Guarantee Fund for external actions (OJ L 293, 12.11.1994, p. 1, ELI: http://data.europa.eu/eli/reg/1994/2728/oj), subsequently replaced by Council Regulation (EC, Euratom) No 480/2009 of 25 May 2009 establishing a Guarantee Fund for external actions (OJ L 145, 10.6.2009, p. 10, ELI: http://data.europa.eu/eli/reg/2009/480/oj), amended by Regulation of the European Parliament and of the Council (EU) 2018/409 (OJ L 76, 19.3.2018, p. 1, ELI: http://data.europa.eu/eli/reg/2018/409/oj), any defaults are covered by that fund within the limit of the amount available. Pursuant to Article 32(9) of Regulation (EU) 2021/947 of the European Parliament and of the Council of 9 June 2021 establishing the Neighbourhood, Development and International Cooperation Instrument – Global Europe, amending and repealing Decision No 466/2014/EU of the European Parliament and of the Council and repealing Regulation (EU) 2017/1601 of the European Parliament and of the Council and Council Regulation (EC, Euratom) No 480/2009 (OJ L 209, 14.6.2021, p. 1, ELI: http:// data.europa.eu/eli/reg/2021/947/oj) which replaced Regulation (EC, Euratom) No 480/2009, the net assets on 31 July 2021 of the Guarantee fund for external actions were to be transferred into the common provisioning fund. That transfer took place on 1 August 2021. The effect on the budget is thus limited to one annual payment to or, exceptionally, from the Guarantee Fund to maintain its target amount of 9 % of the guaranteed operations. In the event of defaults by loan beneficiaries, the payments for Union debt related to MFA are covered up to a level of 9 % of the total amount due by the common provisioning fund. In the event that the common provisioning fund is fully used up, the Union budget must replenish the provisioning fund to the minimum provisioning rate of 9 %. From 1 January 2007, loans with Bulgaria and Romania cease to be external actions (see Article 1, third paragraph, of Regulation (EC, Euratom) No 2728/94) and are therefore covered directly by the Union budget and no longer by the Guarantee Fund.

SINGLE FACILITY PROVIDING MEDIUM-TERM FINANCIAL ASSISTANCE FOR MEMBER STATES’ BALANCES OF PAYMENTS 1. Legal basis Council Regulation (EC) No 332/2002 of 18 February 2002 establishing a facility providing medium-term financial assistance for Member States’ balances of payments (OJ L 53, 23.2.2002, p. 1, ELI: http://data.europa.eu/eli/reg/2002/332/oj). Council Decision 2009/290/EC of 20 January 2009 providing Community medium-term financial assistance for Latvia (OJ L 79, 25.3.2009, p. 39, ELI: http://data.europa.eu/eli/dec/2009/290(1)/oj). Council Decision 2009/459/EC of 6 May 2009 providing Community medium-term financial assistance for Romania (OJ L 150, 13.6.2009, p. 8, ELI: http://data.europa.eu/eli/dec/2009/459/oj). 2. Description In accordance with Regulation (EC) No 332/2002, the Union may grant loans to Member States which are experiencing, or are seriously threatened with, difficulties in their balance of current payments or capital movements. Only Member States which have not adopted the euro may benefit from this facility. The outstanding amount of loans was limited to EUR 12 000 000 000 in principal. On 2 December 2008, the Council decided to extend the facility to EUR 25 000 000 000. On 20 January 2009, the Council decided to provide Community medium-term financial assistance for Latvia in the form of a medium- term loan of a principal of up to EUR 3 100 000 000 for a maximum average maturity of 7 years. On 6 May 2009, the Council decided to provide Community medium-term financial assistance for Romania in the form of a medium- term loan of a principal of up to EUR 5 000 000 000 for a maximum average maturity of 5 years. On 18 May 2009, the Council decided to extend the facility to EUR 50 000 000 000. 3. Effect on the budget Since both parts of these borrowing-and-lending operations are carried out on identical terms, they affect the Union budget only in the highly unlikely event that a Member State does not meet its scheduled payment obligations, whereby the payments for the Union’s debt securities related to BoP will be covered by the available headroom under the permanent own resources ceiling. As of 31 December 2022, the outstanding capital amount under this instrument is EUR 200 000 000. VII. EUROPEAN UNION GUARANTEE FOR UNION BORROWINGS FOR FINANCIAL ASSISTANCE UNDER THE EUROPEAN FINANCIAL STABILISATION MECHANISM 1. Legal basis Council Regulation (EU) No 407/2010 of 11 May 2010 establishing a European financial stabilisation mechanism (OJ L 118, 12.5.2010, p. 1, ELI: http://data.europa.eu/eli/reg/2010/407/oj). Article 122(2) of the Treaty on the Functioning of the European Union (TFEU). Council Implementing Decision 2011/77/EU of 7 December 2010 on granting Union financial assistance to Ireland (OJ L 30, 4.2.2011, p. 34, ELI: http://data.europa.eu/eli/dec_impl/2011/77/oj). 1926/2337 ELI: http://data.europa.eu/eli/budget/2026/72/ojEN OJ L, 26.2.2026 BORROWING-AND-LENDING OPERATIONS — BORROWING-AND-LENDING OPERATIONS GUARANTEED BY THE UNION BUDGET (BY WAY OF INDICATION) Council Implementing Decision 2011/344/EU of 30 May 2011 on granting Union financial assistance to Portugal (OJ L 159, 17.6.2011, p. 88, ELI: http://data.europa.eu/eli/dec_impl/2011/344/oj). 2. Description Article 122(2) TFEU provides for the possibility of the Union granting financial assistance to a Member State which is in difficulties or is seriously threatened with severe difficulties caused, inter alia, by exceptional occurrences beyond its control. The guarantee provided by the Union is for borrowings raised on the capital markets or from financial institutions. In accordance with Article 2(2) of Regulation (EU) No 407/2010, the outstanding amount of loans and credit lines granted to Member States under the European financial stabilisation mechanism is to be limited to the margin available under the Union’s own resources ceiling for payment appropriations. This item constitutes the structure for the guarantee provided by the Union. It will enable the Commission to service the debt should debtors default. In order to honour its obligations, the Commission may draw on its cash resources to service the debt provisionally. Article 12 of Council Regulation (EC, Euratom) No 1150/2000 of 22 May 2000 implementing Decision 2007/436/EC, Euratom on the system of the European Communities own resources (OJ L 130, 31.5.2000, p. 1, ELI: http://data.europa.eu/eli/reg/2000/1150/oj) applies. On 7 December 2010, the Union decided to make available to Ireland a loan amounting to a maximum of EUR 22 500 000 000, with a maximum average maturity of 7,5 years (OJ L 30, 4.2.2011, p. 34, ELI: http://data.europa.eu/eli/dec_impl/2011/77/oj). On 30 May 2011, the Union decided to make available to Portugal a loan amounting to a maximum of EUR 26 000 000 000 (OJ L 159, 17.6.2011, p. 88, ELI: http://data.europa.eu/eli/dec_impl/2011/344/oj). On 11 October 2011, the Council decided to amend Implementing Decisions 2011/77/EU and 2011/344/EU by extending the maturities and applying the reduction of the interest rate margin to all the tranches that have already been disbursed (Implementing Decisions 2011/682/EU and 2011/683/EU). On 21 June 2013, the Council decided to amend Implementing Decision 2011/77/EU by extending the average loan maturity and providing the possibility to extend instalment maturities at the request of Ireland (Implementing Decision 2013/313/EU). On 21 June 2013, the Council decided to amend Implementing Decision 2011/77/EU by extending the average loan maturity and providing the possibility to extend instalment maturities at the request of Portugal. In addition, measures to be adopted by the country in line with specification in the Memorandum of Understanding were specified (Implementing Decision 2013/323/EU). On 22 October 2013, the Council decided to amend Implementing Decision 2011/77/EU by extending the availability of the financial assistance granted to Ireland (Implementing Decision 2013/525/EU). 3. Effect on the budget Since both parts of these borrowing-and-lending operations are carried out on identical terms, they affect the budget only in the highly unlikely event that a Member State does not meet its scheduled payment obligations, whereby the payments for the Union’s debt securities related to EFSM will be covered by the available headroom under the permanent own resources ceiling. On 31 December 2022, the outstanding capital amount under this instrument is EUR 46 300 000 000.

Description Article 122(1) TFEU allows the Council to decide, on a proposal from the Commission and in a spirit of solidarity between Member States, upon the measures appropriate to respond to the socio-economic situation following the COVID-19 outbreak. Article 122(2) TFEU enables the Council to grant Union financial assistance to a Member State that is in difficulties or is seriously threatened with severe difficulties caused by exceptional occurrences beyond its control. The creation of a European instrument for temporary support to mitigate unemployment risks in an emergency (SURE) following the COVID-19 outbreak should enable the Union to respond to the crisis in the labour market in a coordinated, rapid and effective manner and in a spirit of solidarity among Member States, thereby alleviating the impact on employment for individuals and the most affected economic sectors and mitigating the direct effects of this exceptional situation on public expenditure by the Member States. Article 220(1) of the Financial Regulation states that financial assistance by the Union to Member States can take the form of a loan. Such loans should be granted to Member States where the COVID-19 outbreak has led to a sudden and severe increase, as from 1 February 2020, in actual and possibly also planned public expenditure due to national measures. That date ensures equal treatment for all Member States and allows for coverage of their actual and possibly also planned increases in spending relating to the effects on the labour markets of the Member States, irrespective of when the COVID-19 outbreak occurred in each specific Member State. The national measures, which are understood to be in line with the relevant fundamental rights principles, should be directly related to the creation or extension of short-time work schemes and to similar measures, including measures for self-employed persons, or to some health-related measures. Short-time work schemes are public programmes that in certain circumstances allow businesses experiencing economic difficulties to temporarily reduce the hours worked by their employees, who are provided with public income support for the hours not worked. Article 5 of Regulation (EU) 2020/672 states that the maximum amount of financial assistance shall not exceed EUR 100 000 000 000 for all Member States.

Effect on the budget The COVID-19 outbreak has had a massive and disruptive impact on the economic system of each Member State. It therefore calls for collective contributions by Member States in the form of guarantees supporting the loans from the Union budget. Such guarantees are necessary to enable the Union to grant loans of a sufficient order of magnitude to Member States in order to support labour market policies which are under the greatest strain. To ensure that the contingent liability arising from such loans is compatible with the applicable multiannual financial framework and own-resources ceilings, the guarantees provided by the Member States are irrevocable, unconditional and on demand, while additional safeguards should enhance the robustness of the system. In line with the complementary role of such guarantees, and without prejudice to their irrevocable, unconditional and on-demand nature, the Commission is expected, before calling on the guarantees provided by Member States, to draw on the margin available under the own- resources ceiling for payment appropriations to the extent that it is deemed sustainable by the Commission, having regard, inter alia, to the total contingent liabilities of the Union, including under the balance of payments facility established by Council Regulation (EC) No 332/2002 of 18 February 2002 establishing a facility providing medium-term financial assistance for Member States’ balances of payments (OJ L 53, 23.2.2002, p. 1, ELI: http://data.europa.eu/eli/reg/2002/332/oj). In the relevant call on guarantees, the Commission should inform the Member States about the extent to which the available margin has been drawn. The need for guarantees provided by Member States may be reviewed if an agreement on a revised own-resources ceiling is reached. Since both parts of these borrowing-and-lending operations are carried out on identical terms, they affect the budget only in the highly unlikely event that Member States default, whereby the payments for Union debt related to SURE will be covered by the available headroom under the permanent own resources ceiling of the Union budget, as well as the 25 % guarantee provided by all Member States. As of 31 December 2022, the outstanding capital amount under this instrument is EUR 98 355 000 000. IX. NEXTGENERATIONEU 1.

Description The COVID-19 pandemic constitutes a widespread and severe public health crisis. It severely affects citizens, societies and economies worldwide. The extent of the health crisis and the policy responses taken to control it are unprecedented. A comprehensive plan for European recovery has called for massive public and private investment at European level to set the Union firmly on the path to a sustainable and resilient recovery, creating high-quality jobs and repairing the immediate damage brought by the COVID-19 pandemic whilst supporting the Union’s green and digital priorities. To provide the financing for Regulation (EU) 2020/2094, the Commission proposed an amendment to Decision (EU, Euratom) 2020/2053 which has authorised the Union to borrow temporarily and exceptionally an amount of EUR 750 billion in 2018 prices, to increase the own resources ceiling to accommodate the liabilities and contingent liabilities for loans to the Member States. Regulation (EU) 2020/2094 determines the allocation of funds to different Union programmes in line with the strategy set out in the European Union Recovery Plan. Up to EUR 384,4 billion in 2018 prices may be used for non-repayable support and repayable support through financial instruments. Up to EUR 360 billion in 2018 prices may be used to provide loans to Member States(1). The Union will bear contingent liability in the form of a guarantee for those loans until they are repaid. Up to EUR 5,6 billion in 2018 prices may be used for provisioning for budgetary guarantees and related expenditure. The European Union Recovery Instrument provides funding for measures and actions to be carried out as outlined in the European Union Recovery Plan. The resources raised through the issuance are to finance the following measures: (a) measures to restore employment and job creation; (b) measures in the form of reforms and investments to reinvigorate the potential for sustainable growth and employment in order to strengthen cohesion among Member States and increase their resilience; (c) measures for businesses affected by the economic impact of the COVID-19 crisis, in particular measures that benefit small and medium-sized enterprises as well as support for investment in activities that are essential for strengthening sustainable growth in the Union, including direct financial investment in enterprises; (d) measures for research and innovation in response to the COVID-19 crisis; (e) measures for increasing the level of the Union’s crisis preparedness and enabling a quick and effective Union response in the event of major emergencies, including measures such as stockpiling of essential supplies and medical equipment and acquiring the necessary infrastructures for rapid crisis response; (f) measures to ensure that a just transition to a climate-neutral economy will not be undermined by the COVID-19 crisis; (g) measures to address the impact of the COVID-19 crisis on agriculture and rural development. (1) 13 Member States have requested a loan ahead of the legal deadline of 31 August 2023. If these additional loan requests are positively assessed by the Commission and approved by the Council, around EUR 292,6 billion in current prices of loan support would be committed under the RRF, which is about 76 % of the EUR 385,8 billion in loan support that is available under the RRF. For more information, see Overview of Member States’ loan requests under the RRF (europa.eu). ELI: http://data.europa.eu/eli/budget/2026/72/oj 1931/2337EN OJ L, 26.2.2026 BORROWING-AND-LENDING OPERATIONS — BORROWING-AND-LENDING OPERATIONS GUARANTEED BY THE UNION BUDGET (BY WAY OF INDICATION) With respect to the allocation of the funds, up to EUR 384 400 million in 2018 prices in the form of non-repayable support and repayable support through financial instruments are to be allocated as follows: (i) up to EUR 47 500 million in 2018 prices for structural and cohesion programmes of the multiannual financial framework 2014-2020 as reinforced until 2022, including support through financial instruments; (ii) up to EUR 312 500 million in 2018 prices for a programme financing recovery and economic and social resilience via support to reforms and investments; (iii) up to EUR 1 900 million in 2018 prices for programmes related to civil protection; (iv) up to EUR 5 000 million in 2018 prices for programmes related to research and innovation, including support through financial instruments; (v) up to EUR 10 000 million in 2018 prices for programmes supporting territories in their transition towards a climate-neutral economy; (vi) up to EUR 7 500 million in 2018 prices for development in rural areas. In addition, up to EUR 360 000 million in 2018 prices are to be allocated in loans to Member States for a programme financing recovery and economic and social resilience via support to reforms and investments and up to EUR 5 600 million in 2018 prices are to be allocated for provisioning for budgetary guarantees and related expenditure for programmes aiming at supporting investment operations in the field of Union internal policies. The actions and measures will be carried out in accordance with the conditions laid down in the basic acts establishing the policy instruments. This is why the Commission presented in parallel the necessary legislative proposals ensuring that those policy instruments can receive external assigned revenues resulting from the implementation of Regulation (EU) 2020/2094. 3. Effect on the budget Regulation (EU) 2020/2094 provides financial support from external assigned revenue from the Union’s borrowing authorised under Article 5 of Decision (EU, Euratom) 2020/2053 for non-repayable support, repayable support through financial instruments and for provisioning for budgetary guarantees and related expenditure. This entails the need to foresee commitment and payment appropriations to cover amounts falling due for the borrowing (for coupon payments and redemptions at maturity). No new net borrowing will take place after 2026. The repayment of the funds has been scheduled in accordance with the principle of sound financial management, so as to ensure the steady and predictable reduction of liabilities. All liabilities are scheduled to be fully repaid at the latest by 31 December 2058. The necessary appropriations foreseen in the MFF financial programming to cover potential coupon payments over the period 2021-2027 are compatible with the Multiannual Financial Framework, and in particular Heading 2 ‘Cohesion, Resilience and Values’ (excluding ‘Economic, Social and Territorial Cohesion’). Future Multiannual Financial Frameworks will need to provide the necessary appropriations to cover coupon payments and redemptions at maturity. Loans will be repaid by the beneficiary Member States and the Union will bear only contingent liability compatible with the specific own resources ceiling. For the borrowing, the Union counts on its high credit rating to get favourable financial terms. To protect this rating, the Union has used the Union budget headroom as a guarantee, in accordance with Article 6 of Decision (EU, Euratom) 2020/2053. The headroom is the difference between the maximum amount of revenue that the Union can raise for the Union budget and the actual spending from the Union budget. It therefore guarantees that the Union can always deliver on its commitments, no matter the circumstances. To guarantee the borrowing under NextGenerationEU, the Union has a headroom that is 0,6 percentage points higher than the standard one, for the period until 2058. 1932/2337 ELI: http://data.europa.eu/eli/budget/2026/72/ojEN OJ L, 26.2.2026 COMMISSION NOMENCLATURE CHANGES ELI: http://data.europa.eu/eli/budget/2026/72/oj 1933/2337EN OJ L, 26.2.2026 NOMENCLATURE CHANGES Introduction to the nomenclature The nomenclature for the Multiannual Financial Framework (MFF) 2021-2027, as decided following the adoption of the 2021 Union budget, allows for clearer, more informative and better aligned links between the MFF headings and programmes. Since the 2021 Union budget and in line with the political agreement on the MFF 2021-2027, the budget nomenclature is structured by programme cluster (policy area) corresponding to the ‘purpose’ within the meaning of Article 47 of the Financial Regulation. The first 15 titles correspond to the programme clusters within MFF headings 1 to 6 as presented in the MFF 2021-2027 proposals of May 2018 and 2020. Title 16 includes expenditure outside the annual ceilings set out in the MFF, mainly special instruments. Within these first 16 titles, the structure in chapters has been harmonised as follows: — Chapter 01 groups the support expenditure financed from the envelopes of the programmes included in the title as requested by the Financial Regulation. The support expenditure of each programme is classified in articles (and further broken down to item level where necessary) following the sequence of the operational chapters. The operating subsidies of executive agencies charged to the envelopes of the programmes delegated to them are presented under standardised items allowing them to be easily identified across the whole nomenclature: XX 01 XX 7X. — Chapters 02 to 07 (number varying from one title to another) group the operational expenditure of the programmes included in the title, broken down in articles (and items) that correspond to the specific objectives defined in the sectoral legal bases; — Chapter 10 groups the Union contributions to the decentralised agencies included in the title; — Chapter 20 groups the following types of expenditure: — Article 01 includes the total expenditure of the pilot projects of the title; — Article 02 includes the total expenditure of the preparatory actions of the title; — Article 03 includes expenditure that is not part of a programme but for which a basic act exists; — Article 04 includes the expenditure relating to actions financed under the prerogatives of the Commission and specific powers conferred on the Commission. Title 20 includes the administrative expenditure of the Commission and Title 21 the pensions (of former staff and members of all Union institutions) and the contributions to the European Schools. These two titles include the expenditure falling under the MFF heading 7 ‘European Public Administration’. Finally, Title 30 constitutes the ‘provisions’ title foreseen in Article 49 of the Financial Regulation. Two complementary nomenclatures The main nomenclature of the Commission is complemented by two nomenclatures under Annexes 1 and 2 of this section: — in accordance with Article 65 of the Financial Regulation, Annex 1 sets out in further detail the expenditure of the six offices (O1 to O6). That annex follows a structure by office similar to Title 20 of the main nomenclature where the total expenditure of each office is entered into specific budget lines (under Chapter 3); — Annex 2 presents each individual ongoing pilot project and preparatory action with the following standardised structure: — a separate title is provided for the pilot projects ‘PP’ and for the preparatory actions ‘PA’; 1934/2337 ELI: http://data.europa.eu/eli/budget/2026/72/ojEN OJ L, 26.2.2026 NOMENCLATURE CHANGES — within each of these two titles, chapters corresponding to the programme cluster from which pilot projects and preparatory actions are financed. The total expenditure by chapter in Annex 2 corresponds to the amounts of expenditure presented under Articles XX 20 01 and XX 20 02 of the main nomenclature for pilot projects and preparatory actions, respectively; — within each chapter, articles correspond to the budgetary year in which the pilot projects and preparatory actions were adopted. Correspondence tables The tables below present, for each of the three nomenclatures (Main – Pilot projects and preparatory actions – Offices), the correspondence at budget line level between the 2025 budget and the 2026 budget.
