On track to net zero
EEC 2040 supports federally affiliated enterprises, decentralised federal agencies, the Swiss cantons and associated cantonal organisations in developing and implementing their net-zero targets. Around 50 organisations currently benefit from the national programme.

An electrifying prospect: Retrofitting diesel buses instead of replacing them
An Empa study shows that retrofitting existing diesel buses for electric operation would allow the entire European bus fleet to be electrified about 15 years earlier.

Civil Federal Administration and DDPS pursue net-zero targets independently
They are therefore no longer participants in our initiative.

Services
Our modular portfolio ranges from targeted advisory services for developing a net-zero roadmap through to practical tools and long-term support within the framework of a voluntary commitment.

Focus groups
Our focus groups provide a platform for ongoing exchanges between professionals at public service providers on issues related to net zero.
«By setting ambitious targets and taking specific measures, the federal government and the cantons are sending out a strong signal in support of net zero in Switzerland. We stand behind them as they set an example for others to follow.»
Stefanie Reding, Co-Head of the EEC 2040 Programme Office

Toolbox
Our free resources – including guides, templates, Excel-based tools and more – can help in developing and implementing your net-zero targets.

Events
We regularly host online and in-person events designed to offer fresh insights and provide opportunities for professional networking among employees of public service providers.
