Linnapeade pakt kliima ja energia alal on linnapeade juhitav unikaalne poliitiline liikumine.
Euroopa linnapeade pakti juhatus annab kohaliku ja regionaalse tasandi juhtidele võimaluse võtta enda kanda suurem roll algatuse kujundamisel ja edasisel juhtimisel. Juhatuse liikmed töötavad ka selle nimel, et võimaldada kohalike kliima- ja energiameetmete raamistike loomist riiklikul ja Euroopa tasandil, tõstmaks teadlikkust kohalike vajaduste osas Euroopa ja riikliku tasandi võimuesindajate hulgas.
Linnapeade pakti juhatus seab oma eesmärgiks arutada algatuse strateegilisi suundumusi, tagamaks selle parim vastavus linnade vajadustele ja kohandamine vastavalt nende ootustele ning edendamaks dialoogi Euroopa pakti kogukonna ja ELi institutsioonide vahel. Juhatus koosneb 7 linnapeast ja kohalikest valitud võimuesindajatest.
