Decarbonisation pathways for local authorities, citizen and businesses (LOCALISED)

LOCALISED is providing (1) downscaled national decarbonization trajectories consistent with Europe's net-zero target to the local levels, and (2) results to local authorities, citizens and businesses, in a way that would speed up the uptake of mitigation and adaptation actions.

The project creates effective and clearly understandable tools that transform localised data on possible decarbonisation pathways by 2030 and 2050 into knowledge for action, one for municipalities, regions and their citizens, providing information in all 24 EU languages, and the second one for businesses. The tools will allow local authorities and policy-makers as well as citizens and businesses: to identify viable combinations and best practices of (sectoral) mitigation and adaptation measures for every NUTS3 region on how to reach the goals of the downscaled pathways and to introduce an adapted-to-case service for implementation and monitoring of Sustainable Energy and Climate Action Plans (SECAP), considering also some Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs).

Local and regional administrations and business organisations are informing and testing the tools that will be launched at the beginnnig of 2025.

The project reports are available on the project website, together with peer-review articles and scientific publications, policy briefs and factsheets.
