In December 2020, the Antwerp City Council approved the Climate Plan 2030. This climate plan embodies the comprehensive and leading climate policy of the City of Antwerp.

 

It establishes a framework and actions for urban policies in the field of climate mitigation and adaptation. The overarching ambition of all actions is to reduce greenhouse gas emissions in the city by 50% to 55% by 2030 compared to the base year 2005. In the plan, the city bundles actions and ambitions in the field of energy-efficient living, energy savings in services and industry, renewable energy production, a sustainable heat transition and sustainable mobility. The plan also pays extensive attention to tackling flooding, a sustainable water policy, cooling and green-blue measures in the private and public domain.

Left Bank towards Inclusive Climate Neutrality

Year 1 completed comprehensive data mapping to identify what information exists — and what doesn't — about apartment owners' financial situations. Two pilot condominium buildings were selected, and a survey achieved a 40% response rate (63% in one building), with 10% of owners agreeing to in-depth interviews for acceptance testing. Working with Impact Finance Belgium, CLIMACT developed two financing mechanisms built around "budget neutrality" — where post-renovation savings on energy and maintenance cover monthly repayments, enabling participation by owners with no upfront financial capacity. Two workshops with nearly ten financial players refined the mechanisms through expert input. The project now moves to field testing with target groups

Antwerp's Participatory Budget

The Participatory Budget is a tool for the City of Antwerp to give citizens autonomy to spend 10% of the city’s budget annually on projects that could enrich their lives. The main feature of their approach is the focus on deliberative practices based on face-to-face debate, consensus decision-making and reaching marginalized and hard-to-reach residents. It is an excellent case for cities looking to engage citizens in concrete ways in public life and decision-making, allowing also for multiple forms of engagement. The participatory budget fosters active, deliberative and connected communities of neighbourhoods, engaged and empowered in civic life. Citizens are equipped with an awareness of each other’s needs, what resources are needed to satisfy these needs and the competences to prioritize, plan and implement solutions in a collaborative way. 

FRONTIER H2020 project's final video

The video presents the ANTME Platform developed in the EU-funded FRONTIER project and the results of its demonstrations in three European pilot sites: TEN-T CORRIDOR – Oxfordshire, UK, ATTIKI ODOS MOTORWAY – Athens, Greece ANTWERP PORT – Antwerp, Belgium. Known as the Autonomous Network and Traffic Management Engine (ANTME), the smart collaborative platform is revolutionising traffic control by addressing traffic incidents – such as roadworks or collisions – across different modes of transport. FRONTIER is empowering a new era of integrated network and traffic management of the future, taking into account new types and modes of transport automated vehicles, towards the minimisation of pollution and capacity bottlenecks, the reduction of accidents, and the need to reduce the cost of mobility for all users (both citizens, public authorities and businesses).
