Klagenfurt am Wörthersee is the only Austrian city to take part in the EU mission “100 Climate-neutral and Smart Cities by 2030”. Numerous ambitious and financially intensive projects are being planned and implemented to help achieve the climate targets, from decarbonising the bus fleet to expanding the supply of green electricity. The University of Klagenfurt will support the city in its efforts to achieve climate neutrality by providing expertise from a wide range of disciplines in the social, cultural, economic and technical sciences. To this end, funding is being provided by the Ministry of Education, Science and Research (BMBWF) to establish the “City Science Lab (University of Klagenfurt): Climate & Cities Missions in Action”. Funds totalling more than one million euros have now been approved.
