Although there is abundant literature on the development of urban electric and hybrid vehicles (V.E-V.H), the truth is that there are limited case studies in Cuba that go beyond the description and confirm the existence of a government management that implements policies, programs and encourages local projects aimed at developing low-carbon mobility systems, more sustainable and less polluting to the environment. Currently, local development in Cuba acquires a legal and institutional connotation of great relevance as part of the process of reorganization of the functions of the State and the improvement of the public management of government; granting greater powers and autonomy to the administration of each level (provincial and municipal), and in the implementation of policies that materialize the development perspectives of the territories. The local government of Cienfuegos (CAM) - as part of its municipal development strategy - advocates the promotion of local programs aimed at promoting decarbonized mobility for the City of Cienfuegos, reducing its greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions in the city. city and atmosphere. Especially if it is a territorial context of socio-environmental vulnerability in the face of climate change variability. The study is based on the Research-Action-Participation (I-A-P) method, based on the analysis of documents, surveys, interviews, workshops and consultation with experts.

Keywords : Local Development; Municipal Development Strategy; Green Economies and Local Clean and Sustainable Mobility Program.
