Copenhagen intends to be among the first cities to become CO2 neutral by 2030. The city’s Climate City Contract is first and foremost based on those elements of the current CPH 2025 Climate Action plan that are expected to be continued towards 2030 but will also anticipate the overall goals and initiatives of the upcoming Climate Action 2035 plan that are currently being prepared. 

 

The CPH 2025 Climate Action plan had an overall goal of reaching climate neutrality by 2025. Although emissions have be reduced considerably since the onset of the plan, the city faced technical and financial restrictions. Therefore, the city’s Climate City Contract is based primarily on approved and key delayed initiatives from the CPH 2025 Climate Action plan, lessons learnt during the implementation of the current plan, and a provisional description of main initiatives assumed to be included in the Climate Action 2035 plan.

Flexumers4Future - Copenhagen pilot activity

Flexumers4Future (F4F) is piloting flexible district heating consumption. In the future, sustainable energy system production and consumption must be better integrated to maximize the utilization of renewable energy, reduce costs, and increase the security of supply. Demand side flexibility is crucial to enabling the planned electrification of the heat sector and adjusting to fluctuations in energy production based on wind and solar energy. HOFOR is, together with the City of Copenhagen, testing a flexumer concept, where customers voluntarily contribute to system flexibility. Flexumers are defined as customers who actively contribute to a sustainable, secure, and affordable energy supply by offering thermal flexibility from their buildings to the district heating (DH) system. The project has proven quite successful, being able to activate up to around 10 MW of flexibility through voluntary agreements --- sufficient to deliver “proof-of-concept” .

Cities Mission Conference (DAY 1) - Policy Challenges Exchange

This session aims to focus on the urban climate action initiatives that require collective policy action. Mission Cities Stockholm share local climate action initiatives that, to be effective, need policy coordination at the European level. Copenhagen  Lisbon Helsinki Oslo Paris Through a world café format, participants discuss policy needs, implementation challenges, and desired outcomes in groups using these climate action initiatives as examples.
