The first contract under the Green Fund for Warsaw signed

The capital has concluded the first agreement under the Green Fund for Warsaw - a platform for cooperation with enterprises that want to contribute to the green transformation of the capital. The first partner of the city was innogy Polska from the E.ON Group.

The involvement of companies in the development of the city, building a sense of community, and shared responsibility for the city space – are the main goals of the Green Fund for Warsaw established in May 2021. This mechanism enables enterprises to support the city's ecological initiatives – by funding the capital's budget – and allows them to implement their own ideas supporting the greening of Warsaw. By creating the Green Fund, the capital joined the largest metropolises in the world, such as New York, London, Copenhagen, and Paris, which successfully implement similar initiatives.

"Commencing cooperation with innogy Polska under the Green Fund is in line with the goals that Warsaw has set for itself, acting to prevent and adapt to the ongoing climate change. We plan to dismantle the city together in several selected locations, thus increasing the biologically active area in the capital. These activities will be part of the implementation of the assumptions of #AdaptCity – the Warsaw strategy of adaptation to climate change,” Justyna Glusman, director and coordinator for sustainable development and greenery of the Capital City of Warsaw, said.
