Accelerate your climate neutrality journey with the NetZeroCities Portal.

Discover the NetZeroCities Portal

The NetZeroCities Portal is an online platform designed to support cities with their climate ambitions. It connects and empowers cities on their journey towards climate neutrality, offering access to cutting-edge tools, resources, and knowledge on decarbonisation. Beyond providing these resources, the Portal fosters peer-to-peer collaboration among Mission Cities, and any other cities interested in learning from them, fostering connections with city practitioners through online communities and learning groups.

PORTAL OPPORTUNITIES

Access a wealth of resources:

The NetZeroCities Portal is a comprehensive library of valuable information on low carbon and green strategies. The Knowledge Repository, which includes factsheets, case studies, methodologies, and webinar recordings, serves as a go-to library for cities to access up-to-date knowledge, learn from successful examples, and find inspiration to enhance their climate strategies.

Connect and engage

The NetZeroCities Portal offers dedicated groups that facilitate peer learning and collaborative problem-solving. Users can easily create groups with cities facing similar challenges or join existing ones, fostering meaningful connections and shared solutions. Groups feature a newsfeed and a chat function, enabling seamless communication and the exchange of ideas.

Explore tools for climate action

The Portal includes essential tools providing tailored guidance and practical solutions to support cities on their journey to climate neutrality:

The  Climate Transition Map, a strategic framework guiding cities to navigate their path to climate neutrality. It visually outlines the different pathways and actions required to accelerate climate action, emphasising the importance of collective effort and a transformative approach.

NetZeroPlanner, a powerful data-driven tool designed to help city leaders assess the impact of their climate action plan and refine their decarbonisation roadmap based on local data.

The Engagement Strategy tools help cities identify the most suitable services for engaging and activating citizens and urban stakeholders within their local ecosystem. These tools are driven by a questionnaire that helps define each city engagement strategy needs, enabling them to select the best suited tools to address those needs.

The Finance Guidance Tool assists cities in identifying suitable funding for specific projects. It uses a questionnaire to help clarify financing needs and filter the relevant funding options.

The Barometer tracks and analyses climate-related data from Mission Cities to provide a comprehensive view of city-level climate efforts.

The EU Climate Projects Navigator offers a comprehensive overview of key projects and initiatives related to climate neutrality. It helps cities gain a clearer understanding of the landscape they navigate on their journey to a sustainable future.

The Solution Bundle and the Solution Outliner help identify and prioritise climate solutions.
