Climate neutral Östersund 2030

Östersund will become climate neutral by the year 2030. To realize this, an action and climate investment plan for the municipality, companies and the residents in the city will be developed. Linked to this, an analysis of socio-economic effects, emission efficiency linked to cost and side effects is carried out, where residents acceptance of various measures will be examined.

A adjustment function will be created within the municipality which will support co-creation and innovation development in the following five focus areas: • Climate-neutral destination and event • Circular processes • Climate-neutral urban development • Sustainable construction • Smart City

To create engagement and dialogue with citizens and companies, various forms of communication and climate visualizations will also be tested and evaluated. The goal is to sign a climate contract with Viable City to receive support and to be able to coordinate climate work in the city and in the municipality.
