Climate-neutral Höganäs 2030

Several processes for accelerated transition are underway in Höganäs. The transition work needs to take place both within and outside the municipal organization, and Höganäs is working with both perspectives.

• Together with our twin city Helsingborg and local farmers, we are working to develop long-term sustainable agriculture.
• For several years now, the municipality has had a sustainability network with local companies to facilitate the transition of the business community.
• The municipal organisation's transition work is driven by a high level of ambition from administrations and companies. We have made significant progress in several areas of the environmental programme. Several goals have been achieved, particularly in the areas of energy and climate. Other goals are close to being achieved, while some still require further efforts. The municipality's work demonstrates a broad commitment and a clear desire to achieve a sustainable future.

Höganäs' Environmental Program 2015-2025 has guided our sustainability work to date. During the year, a new sustainability program took shape, combining previous environmental programs, public health programs, and plans for accessibility and participation into one comprehensive sustainability program. During the year, a new department for development and sustainability was also created at the municipal executive office to strengthen sustainability work throughout the municipal group.
