D2.8 Updated SEAP/SECAP for LHs and FCs

Summary:

Work Package 2 aims to develop a 2050 City Vision for ATELIER cities using the Cities4ZERO methodology. This structured approach involves engaging key stakeholders, reviewing planning frameworks, analysing strengths and opportunities, formulating future scenarios, and developing strategic plans aligned with the City Vision. At this stage of the project, ATELIER cities have been working for 4 years in developing the city vision and are ready to implement developed vision.

According to the city vision presented in previous steps of WP2, this Deliverable 2.8 presents innovative ideas for developing or updating the Sustainable Energy and Climate Action Plans (SECAPs) or similar action plans in ATELIER cities. It highlights the collaborative process of action planning, incorporating the city vision and strategic objectives worked in previous steps of the project, and provides insights into each city’s experiences, addressing challenges and showcasing innovative processes. The report emphasises flexibility in integrating the city vision into existing plans and initiatives, such as the EU Mission on ClimateNeutral and Smart Cities, demonstrating how ATELIER cities translate their city vision into concrete action plans, contributing to urban and energy transformation aligned with ambitious climate goals.
