| D1P008: Description of project objectives/concepts | |
| D1P008: Description of project objectives/concepts | NEUTRALPATH aims at demonstrating that PCEDs designed and implemented under participative and human-center principles are cost-effective and feasible solutions to contribute significantly to the cities’ transformation towards climate-neutrality, allowing to speed up the process even to reach SCOPE 2 emissions reduction in 2030. Dresden (Germany) and Zaragoza (Spain), with strong experience in urban transformation projects and fully committed to be climate neutral in 2030, will demonstrate 2 PCEDs from the design to the implementation and evaluation stages acting as Lighthouse Cities. Both cities also ambition to act as front-runners of this process creating Climate-Neutral LABs conceived as Innovation Hubs with the aim of fostering faster upscaling and replicability at EU level, making three Fellow Cities (Istanbul[Turkey], Ghent [Belgium] and Vantaa[Finland]) through their own CN-Labs direct participants of the processes and later on main protagonists by means of their own PCED design and implementation. NEUTRALPATH will deliver a strong contribution to meet the EU climate targets establishing a collaboration agreement with the Cities Mission Platform focused on exchanging knowledge and experiences, as well as with the main EU initiatives as H2020 SCC Lighthouse projects and SC Marketplace or Covenant of Mayors. |
