Let’sGOv – GOverning the Transition through Pilot Actions

Let'sGOv - GOverning the Transition through Pilot Actions is a two-year European project coordinated by the Municipality of Bologna and funded under the Horizon 2020 programme within the NetZero Cities Pilot Programme. With a duration of two years and an overall budget of nearly €1.5 million, the project was launched with the aim of testing innovative governance models to accelerate the energy and climate transition of cities towards climate neutrality by 2030.

Alongside Bologna, eight other Italian cities - Bergamo, Florence, Milan, Padua, Parma, Prato, Rome, and Turin - take part in the initiative. Together with scientific and technical partners such as the University of Bologna, the Energy Center of the Polytechnic University of Turin, and the Agency for Energy and Sustainable Development (AESS), they will work to consolidate the energy transition as a structural priority for local administrations, fostering cross-sector collaboration and building alliances with citizens and stakeholders.

The project focuses on three main challenges: engagement, through inclusive participation models that strengthen awareness and involvement in the transition; data management, through the sharing of energy information to support informed decision-making and effective monitoring; and financing, by exploring innovative tools to sustain interventions and strategies.

Let'sGOv was selected by the European Commission from among 103 applications involving 159 cities across 33 countries and was an integral part of the EU Mission on Climate-Neutral and Smart Cities, which aims to make 112 cities climate neutral by 2030.

Duration: June 2023 - May 2025 (24 months)
Total budget: €1,499,928.75
