ICOS Cities
The ICOS Cities project (2021-2025) brought together European citizens, policy makers and top scientists in co-designing pioneer greenhouse gas measurement methodologies and services for cities to support climate action.






Resources and guidelines
We compiled a set of materials to empower urban administrations with the scientific tools and integrated insights necessary for efficient, measurable climate action. These materials will be helpful for:
- City governments and administrations
- Businesses and service providers
- Researchers and academia
Key documents

15 cities involved in Europe
3 pilot cities: Paris, Zurich and Munich
To test the feasibility of different modelling approaches in various areas, three cities of different size have been selected as pilots: Paris (large), Munich (medium) and Zürich (small)
12 additional cities in Europe
To increase the impact and to make sure the concept developed will fit for different types of cities in different countries and landscapes, 12 other cities – Antwerp, Athens, Barcelona, Basel, Brno, Copenhagen, Heidelberg, Helsinki, Krakow, Porto, Rome and Rotterdam - are also joining the city network
