Energy products and services can significantly support both climate mitigation and adaptation. However, the connection between energy access and climate resilience is not always clear.
This paper explores the role of energy access in enhancing climate adaptation and resilience, especially for communities relying on traditional fuels and lacking electricity. It highlights the need to bridge the gap between climate adaptation efforts and energy solutions.
By fostering a common understanding between the energy access and climate adaptation sectors, the paper aims to guide investors to consider the broader impacts of their decisions. This approach encourages better integration of energy access in climate adaptation strategies, ultimately creating a stronger, more resilient ecosystem against climate challenges.
