Energy Cities is a community of several hundred local authority representatives from 30 countries, bringing together frontrunners and energy transition beginners, city officials, and technical experts. 

Energy Cities' vision is that, by 2050, people will be living in decarbonised and resilient cities with access to affordable, secure, and sustainable energy. In this sense, the effort is to create living spaces that are accessible to everyone, through vibrant local economies and by maximising resource regeneration. 

Building a learning community is a tool to help members feel more confident in their own transition journey, because other cities have done it before, or because cities can test new solutions together. Energy Cities fosters an atmosphere of mutual trust in the dialogue between citizens, local leaders, and EU and national institutions in order to accelerate the transformation towards a climate-neutral Europe.  

Energy Cities offers its members the possibility to join and contribute to five thematic hubs, which translate the vision and policy objectives into concrete activities. The hubs are: local governance, fossil-free cities, community energy, food systems, and fair economies.
