Climate-neutral and resilient cities

Building the future for sustainable cities

The U!REKA Centre of Expertise Climate-neutral and resilient cities researches strategies for creating climate-neutral and climate-resilient cities. We explore the costs, benefits, and practical measures needed to reduce greenhouse gas emissions and adapt to climate change impacts.

Our focus areas include smart buildings, positive energy districts, sustainable business parks, urban transport and logistics, economic innovation, sustainable financing, and urban resilience.

Our activities cover networking, joint communication, trainings, capacity building in research competencies, and contributing to challenge-based education.
