53 cities have been joining the NetZeroCities Pilot Cities Programme. They are located all across Europe, they represent 21 different European Union and Horizon 2020 Associated Countries and they aim to scale up their impact to reach climate neutrality.
Each pilot city has identified pathways toward climate neutrality, including six main domains: energy; waste management; land use; electricity for buildings; industrial processes; and mobility and transport. They are also willing to test out new approaches, driving the EU Cities Mission forward in its aims for 112 climate-neutral cities by 2030.
