The Trans-European Networks (TENs) – large, infrastructure networks that enable essential services and efficient connections between national networks – are jointly funded by the European Union and the Member States.

The financing of the TENs can be complemented by Structural Fund assistance, aid from the European Investment Bank (EIB) or contributions from the private sector.
