Cities account for more than 70% of global carbon emissions. By 2050, nearly 70% of the global population will be living in cities, up from 50% today. As city populations grow, the demand for services but also pressure on resources is increasing. This demand has a major impact on energy, water, waste, mobility and any other service that is essential to ensure a city’s prosperity and sustainability. A coordinated and synergistic approach is needed to maximise the impact of climate-neutral and sustainable smart cities efforts and allow the several technological and policy-related challenges to be properly addressed.

The Climate-neutral and Sustainable Smart Cities D4P Horizon Europe webinar is gathering top experts from the European Commission, industry and academia to present and discuss how energy-efficient technologies, mechanisms, and policies must be put in place at several levels to ensure green digital transformation and the recovery of our society and economy.

Relevant Horizon Europe initiatives will be presented, as well as concrete activities planned by the Digital for Planet – D4P Climate-neutral and Sustainable Smart Cities Working Group, in preparation of upcoming Horizon Europe Calls.
