| Dynaxibiliti4CE | Dynaxibiliti for Central Europe https://programme2014-20.interreg-central.eu/Content.Node/Dynaxibility4CE.html | INTERREG Central Europe 2014-2020 | 2020-2022 | The Dynaxibility4CE, as part of an experimental call from the Interreg Central Europe program, focuses on the priority of low-carbon mobility and air quality. It aims to increase the ability of public transport authorities to deal with new mobility trends. This will be achieved by developing strategies and tools for public (transport) authorities that strengthen the planning capacities of cities throughout the region of Central Europe. Thus, the project enables these authorities to become key actors for creating low-carbon and low-pollution mobility systems in their respective regions. | low-carbon, mobility, air quality, public transport, strategy | Leipziger Verkehrsbetriebe Germany | Niklas Schmalholz; Laura Babio nschmalholz@polisnetwork.eu; LBabio@polisnetwork.eu |

| Solar4CE-Cities | Boosting urban solar revolution for Central Europe https://www.interreg-central.eu/projects/solar4ce-cities/ | INTERREG Central Europe 2021-2027 | 2024-2027 | A wider use of solar energy in urban areas is often hindered by insufficient policy frameworks that lead to administrative, technological, and financial barriers. The Solar4CE-Cities project helps cities to change this by promoting the prosumption approach. Prosumers are citizens or entities that not only consume but also produce renewable energy and thus contribute to decarbonise their communities. The partners assess existing prosumer schemes, create new business models, pilot prosumer communities, and involve stakeholders to increase solar energy adoption in cities. | solar energy, urban planning, strategy, energy community, financial model, municipality | Municipality of Budapest Hungary | Rita Andrasek andrasek.rita@budapest.hu |
