Mayors are at the center of leading the energy transition.

Cities will play a critical road in achieving Paris climate goals. This first annual gathering of mayors at CERAWeek will examine new models for cities from around the world - from smart cities to mobility mavens and everything in between. City leaders will share their experiences and challenges in driving these innovative transitions.
