The Scalable Cities Action Grant financially supports cities and ad-hoc partnerships that wish to replicate measures that were successfully implemented through SCC projects to facilitate the transition towards climate neutrality.

Four cities are currently implementing ambitious replication projects inspired by the Scalable Cities lighthouse projects.

  •  The city of Onda in Spain is working on finding the best governance mechanisms and structures to support its decarbonisation ambition.
  • The city of Gabrovo in Bulgaria is assessing internal needs in terms of staff, skills, and strategies for involving citizens and managing resources with the final goal to support energy transition.
  • A consortium of four Ukrainian cities - Slavutych, Myrhorod, Novovolynsk and Volodymyr is preparing a replicable model solution for a distantly organised Energy Management system (EMS) to increase organizational flexibility and resilience of war-affected municipalities, facing a lack of skilled staff and qualified advice in modernizing utility sector, planning investments and mitigating climate change.
  • London Borough of Waltham Forest is preparing an investment case for replicating the Urban Sharing Platforms supporting the Connected Places Roadmapan enabling strategy which sets out how tech and data can underpin and support the cities Climate Action Plan and 15 Minute Neighbourhood Strategy.

Scalable Cities Secretariat is planning to launch the 3rd call in the near future. For more information about the Action Grant, please stay tuned!
