Angers Loire Métropole (ALM) is an urban authority in north-western France with a catchment area of 306,617 inhabitants.
By initiating work on this Climate City Contract (CCC), Angers Loire Métropole (ALM) is delivering an ambitious response to the climate emergency we face. The ALM CCC’s climate policy is driven by three key objectives: accelerating the ecological transition to achieve climate neutrality, building a resilient metropolis capable of withstanding the effects of climate change, and fostering an inclusive transition that benefits all residents and stakeholders in the region.
Through this initiative, ALM is voluntarily aligning itself with international, European, and national efforts to combat climate change. While contributing to this broader framework, the CCC also aims to provide a tailored response to specific local challenges by leveraging the region’s strengths—such as its strong potential for district heating networks and renewable energy development, evolving mobility solutions, and a dynamic circular economy ecosystem. At the same time, it takes into account key climate risks, including flooding, biodiversity loss, and urban heat islands.
