From pilot testing to whole-city transformation for climate neutrality
Enabling City Transformation: Scaling Climate-Neutral Solutions
The second edition of the Enabling City Transformation Call invites Mission cities to propose innovative actions to overcome systemic challenges in implementing climate action. The 22-month Enabling City Transformation programme supports Mission cities to move beyond experimentation by deploying, scaling, and institutionalising enabling innovations that address critical bottlenecks to climate action.
To accomplish this, the Enabling City Transformation programme takes a challenge-based approach. Defined challenge areas diagnose critical city-wide implementation barriers that currently prevent cities from translating Climate City Contract ambitions into replicable and scalable outcomes.
With a budget of 8M EUR, the programme focuses on generating practical, transferable, and evidence-based approaches that can be adopted across Europe. Applicants will be required to align their proposals with one of the Enabling City Transformation programme challenge areas and demonstrate how their intervention addresses a clearly identified implementation barrier while contributing to the wider EU Cities Mission learning and replication.
