Climate-neutral Heidelberg: the 2030 ambition

Climate neutrality by 2030 ✅

A city pursuing climate neutrality can gain more than climate benefits. It can also build a more resilient energy supply, becoming less dependent on imported gas and other fuels.

That has major implications for energy-dependent businesses, including our sports-equipment manufacturing.

We discussed this in my Dinner im Schloss podcast special. Heidelberg’s mayor, Professor Dr Eckart Würzner, shared insights into his ambition to make the city climate-neutral by 2030.
