Coastal Cities and Regions at the forefront of the innovative energy transition of the blue economy

The session is developed as part of the ongoing efforts to prompt the energy transition of the EU blue economy. It will give regional and local actors a platform to share best practices (not least on Smart Specialisation), exchange views, identify barriers and ways forward to drive the decarbonisation of the blue economy towards climate-neutrality by 2050. This includes contribution to a roadmap on the transition of the sector and participation in the new Energy Transition Partnership.
