Cities are responsible for approximately 75% of CO2 emissions, and hence can play a critical role in achieving net-zero carbon. Decisions made by national and local governments, citizens, businesses, investors as well as other actors greatly impact resources and their consumption in cities requiring optimised provisions of services to support better infrastructure and growing populations in a period of increasing climate change impacts.The city of Southampton is no different, it has a variety of specific challenges and opportunities which make it an ideal city to be propelled to net-zero, by 2050 (UK target) or earlier. Southampton has the power to use its political, economic, financial, and social influence to protect the environment and sustainably accelerate the city to net-zero. We will build on these characteristics, opportunities and challenges in a combined techno-economic methodology coupled with stakeholder engagements to support coherent studies to address non-technical barriers to achieve net zero.The methodology and the derived strategies will allow an effective _Plan_ with a coherently structured programme aligned with the vision to deliver net-zero at city scale. The _Plan_ will be delivered through a capable team with high level buy-in from the partners (including the local authority) and stakeholders, coupled with the required levels of resources. An effective reporting mechanism and a risk register will also be established to support the vision and the derived strategies.

城市约占二氧化碳排放量的75%，因此可以在实现净零碳排放方面发挥关键作用。国家和地方政府、公民、企业、投资者以及其他参与者所做的决定极大地影响了城市的资源及其消费，这些城市需要优化服务，以支持更好的基础设施和不断增长的人口，应对气候变化影响。南安普顿也不例外，它具有各种具体的挑战和机遇，使其成为到2050年（英国目标）或更早实现净零排放的理想城市。南安普顿有能力利用其政治、经济、金融和社会影响力来保护环境，并可持续地加速城市实现净零排放。我们将以这些特点、机遇和挑战为基础，采用技术经济相结合的方法，并结合利益相关者的参与，支持连贯的研究，以解决实现净零排放的非技术障碍。该方法和衍生战略将允许有效的规划，并制定一个结构连贯的方案，与在城市规模实现净零排放的愿景保持一致。该计划将通过一个有能力的团队实施，并得到合作伙伴（包括地方当局）和利益攸关方的高度支持，以及所需的资源水平。还将建立一个有效的报告机制和风险登记册，以支持这一愿景和由此产生的战略。
