Let’s GOv
GOverning the Transition through pilot actions
Codice progetto: 101036519
Programma: NetZeroCities
Call: NZC-H2020-202209
Let'sGOv focuses on reducing energy system-related emissions through the exploration of enhanced governance models to agree on new forms of energy alliances, to unlock new financial sources for the energy transition, and to define the conditions for energy-enhanced multi-level governance. Thermal and electrical consumption in buildings together with transport and productive sphere accounts for the largest share of energy consumption and CO2eq emissions in cities. To accelerate climate neutrality and support emissions reduction by 2030, public and private actions must be implemented, overcoming criticalities in the internal (within municipalities) and external (between the public sector and external stakeholders) governance.
Considering the transition as a common asset, renewable energy communities and collective self-consumption experiences, as well as sharing mobility and modernization of mobility and local services infrastructures are necessary levers to achieve the transition, highly relevant for their direct impacts and co-benefits for cities. However, in Italy and in some of the European Countries, the co-production of energy systems is slowed down by several barriers (constraints of the regulatory framework, lack of data and agile financial resources to support decision-making and detailed monitoring, lack of skills in the public and private sectors, absence of ad hoc protocols, agreements or standardised procedures).To support systemic transformation and overcome block thinking, the 9MCs are committed to collectively experimenting with multi-level and multi-stakeholder governance as the only way to achieve the challenging emission reduction targets, exchanging knowledge to build resilience and adaptive capacity of urban systems and reduce emissions. To accomplish that, this project is designed to operate on 3 levels: the network, the cluster, and the city levels.
The network level brings together the 9MCs in a cross-city bench learning approach through exchanges of experience and good practices, agreements and MoUs (i.e. IT Ministry of Mobility and Infrastructures); the cluster level, where cities address governance challenges through three levers: i) enhancing engagement mechanisms (Engagement Cluster); ii) increasing multilevel data-sharing that generates organizational restructuring (Data Cluster); iii) and promoting innovative financial strategies (Finance Cluster); the city level, where specific experimentation will provide punctual solutions..
