Municipal climate plan
Get support to develop an effective municipal climate plan – or specific parts of the work based on a structured process and a strong professional foundation.
Targeted and data-driven climate action
We deliver tailored municipal climate plans that combine data analysis with strategic advice.
Throughout the process, we work closely with you to identify actions that match the areas you want to prioritise – always with a view to what is politically and financially feasible.
A clear concept and a flexible process
Each project is tailored to your specific needs – whether you require full support or selected elements such as climate adaptation or biodiversity initiatives.
As part of the process, we can organise workshops involving relevant professionals and external stakeholders. We also participate in meetings with political committees when needed to ensure broad support and alignment.
Municipalities we have worked with
Albertslund, Haderslev, Langeland, Rødovre – and many more. We have supported around half of all Danish municipalities with their climate plans. This gives us a wealth of experience and a deep understanding of different local political landscapes.
Benefits of a municipal climate plan
- Overview of municipal CO₂ emissions and key reduction potentials
- Clear prioritisation of climate actions with the greatest effect
- User-friendly scenario tool to support political decisions
- Tailored process with broad professional and political anchoring
- Documentation ready for CCTF (a shared framework used by Danish municipalities for climate action planning and reporting.)and political decision-making
How we help you through the process
We start with a clear concept but tailor the process to fit your municipality’s specific needs. A typical project might look like this:
Deliverables
Depending on your needs, we deliver a range of outputs to help you move forward with climate action. These could include:
- CO₂ mapping for the municipal geography
We use the RS format, a standardised method for CO₂ mapping developed by the Danish Energy Agency and partners. - Business-as-usual (BAU) scenario
A future scenario assuming no new climate actions, used as a baseline for comparison. - Review of actions and initiatives
- Development of action scenarios
- Climate risk mapping
- Communication strategy
Read more about how we work with communication strategies - Sector analyses and plans
For example, biodiversity plans, strategic energy and heating plans, electricity balance analyses, and more.
We also support climate adaptation
We help municipalities address the impacts of climate change. This includes mapping risks such as cloudbursts, rising groundwater, storm surges, and droughts – and assessing their effects on urban areas, landscapes, and infrastructure.
With a clear overview in place, we support you in setting specific goals for climate adaptation and identifying solutions that strengthen municipal resilience – from immediate actions to long-term planning.
