Liberec among 100 climate-neutral cities by 2030

CZELO

The European Commission has published a list of cities selected to participate in Mission: 100 Climate Neutral and Smart Cities.

The 100 cities come from all 27 Member States, with 12 additional cities coming from countries associated to Horizon Europe. The EU Mission: Climate-Neutral and Smart Cities will receive €360 million from the HE Framework Program. Research and innovation actions in the field of mobility, energy efficiency and green urban planning will be funded.

The Commission will invite the 100 selected cities to develop Climate City Contracts, which will include an overall plan for climate neutrality across all sectors such as energy, buildings, waste management and transport, together with related investment plans.

Selected cities can benefit from:

  • Tailor-made advice and assistance from the Mission Platform (managed by the NetZeroCities consortium)
  • Research & innovation funding opportunities for cities to join large innovation actions, pilot projects and demonstrations
  • High visibility and networking opportunities
  • Attractiveness for investment and skilled workers
