Across Europe, cities and regions are leading the clean energy transition, but many—especially smaller municipalities—face a major challenge: limited resources and technical expertise to develop and implement ambitious energy and climate strategies.
This session at the European Youth Event (EYE2025) will inspire participants to pursue their climate projects, guided by the experiences of young European Climate Pact Ambassadors.
The Implementation Dialogue with Wopke Hoekstra, Commissioner for Climate, Net Zero and Clean Growth, will gather various stakeholders to discuss the implementation of ETS2 and the Social Climate Fund.
EU Member States have significantly closed the gap to achieving the 2030 energy and climate targets, according to the European Commission's assessment of the National Energy and Climate Plans (NECPs).
The 7th European Climate Change Adaptation Conference (ECCA2025) is just around the corner—taking place from 16 to 18 June 2025 in Rimini, Italy. Europe’s flagship event on climate adaptation.
The EU Mission on Adaptation to Climate Change will be actively represented across the programme:

Did you know that Europe is home to the largest network of environmentally protected areas in the world? Over 27 000 nature sites protected by EU laws make up the Natura 2000 network! Every year on 21 May we celebrate Natura 2000 Day, when we highlight what is being done to protect most valuable and threatened species and habitats in the EU.
On May 20, the Commission announced the selection of 15 renewable hydrogen production projects for public funding across the European Economic Area (EEA). The projects, located across five countries, are expected to produce nearly 2.2 million tonnes of renewable hydrogen over ten years, avoiding more than 15 million tonnes of CO₂ emissions. The hydrogen will be produced in sectors such as transportation, the chemical industry, or the production of methanol and ammonia. They will receive a total of €992 million in EU funding, from the Innovation Fund sourced from the EU Emissions Trading System (ETS).
