Mayor Martin J. Walsh is asking renewable energy developers and other interested parties to share details on what could be the largest renewable energy project of its kind in the country. The City of Boston released today a Request for Information (RFI) to obtain feedback from qualified renewable energy project developers with projects throughout the United States that could support the municipal energy demand of 20 cities included in the request. The total aggregate energy demand of all cities included in the request is nearly 5.7 terawatt-hours — enough to power over half a million US homes.

“I’m eager to seeing what’s possible in terms of projects that can power our cities and create more, clean energy jobs,” said Mayor Walsh. “I applaud my colleagues in

helps to ensure that climate plays a role in aspects of city planning.

The City’s current climate initiatives are laying the groundwork to advance its climate goals and to

accelerate progress. Carbon Free Boston is analyzing the options and pathways

to achieve deep decarbonization. The initiative is weighing the

costs and benefits of technologies and policies

across key action areas

including electric

power, buildings, transportation,

and waste. As part of this effort,

Zero Waste Boston is exploring pathways

to turn Boston into a zero waste city through

planning, policy, and community engagement.

Additionally, Climate Ready Boston is strengthening Boston’s

climate change resilience with near- and long-term planning.

It is actively advancing Boston’s vision of a resilient city through a

comprehensive citywide vulnerability study, a community outreach program, and neighborhood-level implementation projects, including the installation of a flood wall in one of Boston’s most flood-prone neighborhood.

ALL OF THESE INITIATIVES WILL INFORM THE UPCOMING UPDATE OF BOSTON’S CLIMATE ACTION PLAN.

Cover Story continued

collective power of cities to invest in renewable energy and create more, middle class, clean energy jobs. If successful, a large-scale purchase of renewable energy will help power these cities, save money, and offset carbon emissions.

Mayor Walsh officially announced his plans for the renewable energy initiative earlier this summer at the International Mayors Climate Summit in Boston. Mayors from across the country and around the world joined Mayor Walsh and leaders from public and private sectors to discuss actions taken by mayors to address climate change globally and in their own communities.

Mayor Walsh is the Co-Chair of Climate Mayors, a network of U.S. mayors that participated in a similar joint-city initiative last year that demonstrates the collective power of cities to advance climate goals. The Climate Mayors initiative, led by the City of Los Angeles, issued an Electric Vehicle Request for Information (EV RFI) with 30 other cities in efforts to aggregate municipal demand of electric vehicles across the country. The EV RFI demonstrated demand for nearly 115,000 vehicles of all classes, including trash trucks, street sweepers, semis, shuttles, and buses — with an estimated value of $10 billion to replace the entire fleet. The RFI received 40 responses across all vehicle segments, and is now moving into a formal procurement.

ABOUT BOSTON’S CLIMATE INITIATIVES

Boston is taking bold action on climate to become a carbon neutral, climate ready city as outlined in its updated Climate Action Plan. Boston’s Climate Action Plan serves as Boston’s roadmap for reaching its goals of reducing carbon emissions and preparing for the impacts of climate change. The goals are supported by Imagine Boston 2030, the first citywide plan in 50 years, that
