Description

Description Leadership for Urban Climate Investment (LUCI) is a framework that elevates and tracks commitments made by Cities Climate Finance Leadership Alliance member initiatives, helping its members to not only think big, but to implement bold and effective targets. The LUCI framework enables these ambitious targets by catalyzing action along the entire value chain of subnational climate finance from project conception through financing. LUCI was initiated by a multi-stakeholder coalition led by the German Federal Ministry for the Environment, Nature Conservation, and Nuclear Safety (BMU), and launched at the UN SG Climate Action Summit in 2019. LUCI is now hosted by the Cities Climate Finance Leadership Alliance (the Alliance).
Objectives Develop a holistic framework to develop and finance urban climate smart infrastructure at scale by 2025.

Progress towards the goals LUCI consists of four integrated components containing over 12 initiatives led by Alliance members. Each initiative mobilizes key stakeholders including national and subnational governments, international finance institutions and climate funds, development banks, city networks, international organizations, and research/academia. Together, these initiatives build an effective and efficient framework that addresses the barriers to implementing climate smart infrastructure in cities at scale. So far, more than EUR 75 million in grants have been made available for initiatives under LUCI. For example, the new City Climate Finance Gap Fund, one central initiative of LUCI, is the first global fund dedicated to supporting cities in the very early stages of project development, with an aim to unlock EUR 4 billion of investment off a EUR 100 million budget.
How are you tracking progress of your initiative Each year, initiatives are asked to report on their progress respective to LUCI targets. The Alliance presents on such progress and identifies further barriers to implementation. To reach LUCI’s ambitious targets, additional initiatives will progressively be incorporated into LUCI’s framework.
