Cities are on the front line of the fight against climate change. They are the ones that will implement the systemic changes and measures to combat it. Therefore, the issue of resources is crucial to the success of the different projects.

Energy Cities created this document to guide cities through the landscape of financial support and opportunities in the EU. Main EU initiatives such as the traditional funding programmes and the Regional cohesion and development programmes are covered, as well as other initiatives that offer financial support or high visibility.
