Climate-neutral cities and communities

Nine Austrian cities are currently working on their FIT4UrbanMission projects. In the city portraits, they reveal which focus they want to set in terms of climate neutrality for their city and what special challenges they are facing.

The accompanying process of the FIT4UrbanMission

To face the diverse challenges of climate change together, the available and functional solutions must be made accessible to everyone. Therefore, Austria relies on a joint approach.

The way to a European climate union

The wide field of climate protection is one of the political priorities of the European Union. The aim is to limit the negative impacts of climate change and stop emitting more emissions than can be offset by 2050 - and thus to become a climate-neutral continent.

ERA-NET COFUND Smart Cities and Communities (2014 - 2019)

Smart Cities and Communities have been identified as key to achieving the energy efficiency targets for 2020 and 2050. The main objective of this ERA-NET COFUND is to stimulate successful practice and facilitate replicability within Smart Cities and Communities implementation projects and also across projects in order to achieve a technological shift in the current energy system and provide smart and integrated solutions for technology, government and society.

FIT4Urban Mission

Nine cities, Austria's pioneers, are setting out together to become climate-neutral. The Ministry of Climate Action, Environment, Energy, Mobility, Innovation and Technology (BMK) supports these nine cities in building up knowledge about climate neutrality and in improving and developing strategies for implementation measures through a targeted funding scheme.

City of Tomorrow

City of Tomorrow puts emphasis on the built infrastructure in connection with urban energy systems, both on a district-level and within the wider agglomeration (suburban areas).

Mission: Climate Neutral City

With the mission "Climate Neutral City", the BMK has set a focus that will enable Austrian cities and municipalities to implement the climate & energy targets. Comprehensive research activities and accompanying measures act as "enablers" to make the path towards climate neutrality visible, to develop demonstrate it.

NEWTON: City of Tomorrow 4.0 - movie series
