The public sector and publicly owned companies ensure that global or European climate plans are transposed at the regional level. In particular, decarbonisation measures need to be implemented in municipalities, cities and rural districts. This is accompanied, among other things, by the obligation to install photovoltaic systems on certain buildings. Likewise, urban neighbourhoods need to be redesigned in the medium and long term and municipal heat planning has to be refocused.
