Resumen

Contexto: Next Generation EU (NGEU) constituye el principal instrumento financiero de la política de recuperación post-COVID de la Unión Europea (UE). Este amplio marco de estímulo está proporcionando una oportunidad para acelerar el proceso de descarbonización y reforzar la política climática. El artículo analiza el plan de recuperación de España, valorando su potencial contribución a los objetivos medioambientales y de sostenibilidad de la UE. Metodología: el estudio se basa en la literatura académica, en instrumentos jurídicos, así como en documentos institucionales de la UE y del Gobierno español. El enfoque es principalmente analítico. Resultados: Los fondos NGEU brindan a España la oportunidad de emprender cambios profundos para construir un modelo económico más resiliente. La transición verde es el eje principal del plan español de recuperación, con casi el 40 % de los recursos destinados a este proceso. Las inversiones y reformas dirigidas a la transición ecológica se están realizando en España a un ritmo rápido, en línea con los objetivos y políticas de la UE. Conclusiones: Los nuevos retos generados por la guerra en Ucrania exigen a España esfuerzos adicionales no cubiertos inicialmente por el plan de recuperación. En particular, el despliegue de energías renovables y la mejora de las políticas de economía circular serán cruciales para acelerar la transición verde.
