EU Covenant of Mayors

The EU Covenant of Mayors for Climate & Energy is the largest movement of local governments in Europe acting on climate change to secure a better future for their citizens. It gathers over 10,500 local authorities voluntarily committed to the European Union’s energy and climate targets. 

As a keystone initiative of the European Commission, the Covenant of Mayors empowers cities and towns of all sizes to act on energy and climate in line with the EU’s vision for a climate-neutral, resilient and fair future for all.
