100% Renewables Cities and Regions Network

Connecting leading local and regional governments to drive the transition towards 100 percent renewable energy

The 100% Renewables Cities and Regions Network

Local and regional governments worldwide are setting renewable energy targets. This shift is a critical means to reduce greenhouse gas emissions and air pollution, create jobs and enhance community resilience through decentralized energy production. The 100% RE Cities and Regions Network accelerates the renewable energy transition by bringing networking, peer learning, technical guidance and the latest renewable energy research and findings to participants.

Meet the cities and regions

Aims

Through this network, ICLEI and partners aim to equip local governments with the knowledge and capacity to bring renewable energy to their communities. Local and regional governments in the network accelerate the global renewable energy transition by making commitments to 100 percent renewable energy and driving uptake in their territories – especially in electricity, heating and cooling and transport in community and government operations.

Activities

Through the network, local and regional governments:

Participate in networking, learning and cooperation opportunities.
Engage in thematic workshops.
Receive technical guidance and support.
Gain access to renewable energy and energy efficiency experts, tools and resources.
Promote local solutions and service providers globally.

Where renewable energy is spreading

These local and regional governments are leading a renewable energy shift in their jurisdictions.

Meet the Cities and Regions

Get involved

The 100% RE Cities and Regions Network is open to all local and regional governments intent to set a course towards 100 percent renewable energy. To join, a local and regional government needs to actively engage in global exchange and cooperation on renewable energy and either approve a 100 percent renewable energy target in at least one sector or have a clear interest in exploring a target.

HARNESS the power of the ICLEI Network! " Governments need to give (the sense of) direction, as Business leaders we don't make the wind, we sail the boats. So policy should set the winds in the right directions if you want the boat going fast to the right harbor." Philippe Joubert Senior Advisor, World Business Council
