The Energy and Public Realm Accelerator focuses on mobility- and energy-related activities that improve the public realm and citizen’s lives in European cities. By supporting start-ups working in the area of public realm, energy and mobility, the project aims to achieve a better design, use and management of public spaces through socially innovative, inclusive, environmentally sustainable and accessible solutions. This contributes to the liveability and sustainability of European cities and has a long-term positive societal impact on the development and use of public spaces. The challenges in urban living that the programme addresses include transport safety; e-mobility; parking; connectivity for pedestrians and cyclists; congestion caused by delivery and logistics; and all related aspects of health.
