One hundred smart and climate-neutral cities by 2030

Inicio » Noticias UE » Environmental Affairs » One hundred smart and climate-neutral cities by 2030

3 de May de 2022

The Commission announced last week the 100 EU cities that will participate in the EU mission “100 smart and climate-neutral cities by 2030”, the so-called mission on cities.

The 100 cities come from all 27 Member States, with an additional 12 cities from countries associated or with the potential to be associated with Horizon Europe, the EU’s research and innovation program (2021-2027).

Our urban areas are home to 75% of EU citizens. Globally, urban areas consume over 65% of the world’s energy, accounting for more than 70% of CO2 emissions. It is therefore important that cities act as experimentation and innovation ecosystems to help all others in their transition to become climate-neutral by 2050.

Ursula von der Leyen, President of the Commission, said:

“The green transition is making its way all over Europe right now. But there’s always a need for trailblazers, who set themselves even higher goals. These cities are showing us the way to a healthier future. We will support them on this! Let’s begin the work today.”

The Cities Mission will receive €360 million of Horizon Europe funding covering the period 2022-23, to start the innovation paths towards climate neutrality by 2030. The research and innovation actions will address clean mobility, energy efficiency and green urban planning, and offer the possibility to build joint initiatives and ramp up collaborations in synergies with other EU programmes.

EU missions 100 climate-neutral and smart cities

Benefits for cities include tailor-made advice and assistance from a dedicated Mission Platform run by NetZeroCities, additional funding and financing opportunities and the possibility to join large innovation actions and pilot projects. The Mission also provides networking opportunities, exchange of best practices between cities and support to engage citizens in the mission.
