3T transformation towards zero-carbon economy: Technology, Transport, Tourism
Accelerating transformation towards real climate-neutral country until 2050 #GREENSLOVAKIA
Clean innovation includes new technologies, products, and business practices that improve environmental performance. Clean innovation can be advanced in all sectors of the economy, from traditional resource sectors, to manufacturing, to services.
Clean technology – or cleantech – is the sector of the economy focused exclusively on developing next-generation green innovations such as renewable energy systems, biochemicals, or emission-free vehicles.
WHAT IS CLIMATE NEUTRALITY?
Climate neutrality, in contrast to carbon neutrality, means reducing emissions of all greenhouse gases (not only CO2) to a minimum, while the remaining emissions already created are offset (saved) by climate-positive measures (trees, clean technologies). The goal is to reduce the net impact on the climate to zero, which is why climate neutrality is called net-zero.

Mision & Vision
Climate change is a reality. We face the challenge of achieving climate neutrality and reducing greenhouse gas emissions. Climate change will have an increasing impact on society, economies, cities, and businesses. It affects all of us. It affects all of us. Slovakia has made a commitment to become a climate-neutral country until 2050. We know the goal, but we don’t have solutions to achieve it. The solution to this challenge is the new clean technologies and innovations that underpin the green, collaborative and circular economy. We want to promote solutions to prevent further loss of biodiversity and the destruction of natural resources. The most efficient decarbonization technology already exists. We call it TREES. Institute of Climate Neutrality brings a vision of Slovakia: a green, sustainable, innovative country. We are an initiative to support and promote greater environmental responsibility of the corporate sector, the public sector, and each individual. We support, promote, and implement the development and dissemination of clean technologies, measures, projects, and initiatives that are environmentally friendly. We contribute to networking and networking between public and private actors at the national and international level. Join us, act responsibly, let´s be change!

- we are an open platform for cooperation in the development of green business, development of start-up ecosystem innovations and funding opportunities
- we raise awareness of sustainable corporate initiatives and promote environmentally responsible approaches and solutions of the corporate sector
- we improve the exchange of experience and knowledge through regional cooperation and partnerships with other organizations and networks in Slovakia and abroad
