Monitoring Europe's progress towards climate neutrality

The European Climate Neutrality Observatory (ECNO) aims to help the EU achieve climate neutrality by providing scientifically rigorous analysis of economy-wide progress and an independent check on EU climate policy processes.

ECNO’s leading experts analyse the data underlying a comprehensive set of progress indicators to present a unique, up-to-date picture of the whole economy, and identify any gaps in data collection, benchmarking, and monitoring that need to be addressed. Crucially, ECNO’s analysis focuses on the underlying enablers of climate neutrality, not just the observed outcomes.

ECNO enables policy makers, businesses, and civil society to hold the EU accountable for the delivery of climate neutrality. As an independent observatory, ECNO further seeks to inspire the uptake of better monitoring practices and policy making, as well as greater transparency on the EU’s transition to climate neutrality.
