The World Economic Forum, in collaboration with Accenture, invites you to join the 'Urban Energy Transitions: Cities Leading the Way to Clean Electrified Futures' session during COP26. This session builds on the work of the Forum’s Net Zero Carbon Cities program through a 75-minute dialogue on urban decarbonization with city and business leaders. In this session, we will bring to life our recently launched Toolbox of Solutions, a digital platform containing over 200 best practices and case studies for policy, business, and finance models. The session includes an interactive exercise to identify targeted near-term actions with the City of Dundee to accelerate their journey to net zero.

The COP26 summit presents a pivotal opportunity to bring together the public and private sector to accelerate action towards the goals of the Paris Agreement and the UN Framework Convention on Climate Change.
