After joining the CoM, the city of Maranello, Italy has developed its SEAP foreseeing 26 measures to decrease CO2eq emissions within 2020. These include, among others:
- Funding for energy improvement of external lighting of private property
- Energy efficient public lighting
- Energy efficiency refurbishment, monitoring and energy certification for public buildings
- Organisation of awareness raising events

- Creation of municipal and inter-municipal cycle paths
- Installation of solar plants on municipal soil and geothermal plants in public buildings
- Creation of purchasing groups for solar panels

- Switching to GPP
The application of the SEAP will allow Maranello to cut its emissions by 22.452 tCO2/y, i.e. 21.5% in comparison to 1995. Figure 1 shows avoided CO2 emissions share per sector and Table 2 shows reductions in tonnes per year.
