The guideline is aimed at supporting planners for integrating renewable energy with the climate change issues in preparing District Climate and Energy plans (DCEPs), including energy planning steps and inter-linkage with climate change vulnerability, adaptation & mitigation. Specifically, the guideline will support energy planning in the context of climate change and GSI by: Providing a systematic process, steps and tools to create DCEPs that integrate climate change and GSI into energy planning; Providing ideas on assessing vulnerabilities of energy resources, sources and consumption and opportunities created by climate change; and Enabling planners to make appropriate decisions on sustainable and clean energy development/adoption in the districts.
