Pledge

Today, the city must first and foremost learn to manage energy efficiently and increase the share of renewable energy. The first step is the aforementioned ISO 50 001 certification, which will be completed in 2023. Next, the city needs to develop an energy concept, which will be included in the city's strategic plan. We hope that this step will be taken in 2025 when the new master plan of the city will be created. GHG emissions also need to be included in that plan and measurable indicators need to be set.
