By taking stock and analysing the current opportunities and deficiencies in project preparation in Europe and developing countries, the project focuses on supporting LoCaL and its partners to identify the definitions, visions, needs, and opportunities to develop and/or participate to Climate Project Preparation.

The project aims to bring together key LoCaL partners in identifying, coordinating, and accelerating the constitution of a chain of value, and illustrate a complementary ecosystem of LoCaL partners towards future involvements in Project Preparation Facilities (PPFs) or Project Preparation Initiatives for climate smart investments. It also aims to contribute to overcoming the project preparation crisis cities in Europe and beyond are facing today.

Aims and objectives

• Identify the vision, definition, and existing experiences of LoCaL partners towards project preparation
• Identify the needs, challenges, opportunities, and potential added value of LoCaL’s ecosystem towards climate project preparation
• Present and promote this potential complementary chain of value of LoCaL partners on project preparation to accelerate climate actions to LoCaL and Climate-KIC partners
