Climate Ready Barcelona

Climate Ready Barcelona is a project aimed to support the Barcelona’s citizens and public bodies in anticipating and adapting to climate change effects and the related energy crisis.

The project set sail in 2023, and during the span of 2 years it will be working on developing and implementing new tools to optimize the Barcelona’s municipal Energy Advisory Centres (EAC) in their support services aimed at guaranteeing access to energy rights by citizens in vulnerable situations and to help policy makers make informed decisions in relation to the effects of the climate crisis.

Proposed solutions or products

Climate Ready BCN will work in 3 main projects or possible solutions to improve the services offered by the EAC to the citizens and guide the public administrations in their policy-making to prevent and tackle the impact of the climate crisis.

App My Energy

Developing new functionalities for My Energy App, which is a tool used by Barcelona’s Energy Advisory Centers (EACs) designed to communicate and provide support to citizens affected by energy vulnerability.

Housing vulnerability map

Production of a housing vulnerability map of Barcelona to identify specific characteristics that influence the impact of climate change and the use of energy in different neighbourhoods.

Policy recommendations

Creation of a set of political recommendations based on the lessons learned from the implementation of the My Energy App and the Climate Vulnerability Map, aimed at promoting climate change adaptation and mitigation measures in housing policies and to support building energy rehabilitation programs and energy sovereignty plans.

Climate Ready Barcelona is a project coordinated by Asociación Ecoserveis with partner organisations Welfare and Development Association (ABD), CIMNE, BitGenoma and Barcelona Municipal Council. Funded by the Local Governments for Sustainability (ICLEI) with the support of Google.org.
