Metrics and Risk

This report explores how renewable energy can boost resilience, cut greenhouse gases and support long-term development, especially in climate-vulnerable regions.

It makes the case for using renewable energy as a strategy for climate adaptation and presents a clear, practical methodology to assess its benefits.

It also explains how identifying risks, exposure and vulnerabilities is crucial for effective adaptation planning, and shows how developing measurable indicators can help track the impact of renewables in adaptation strategies.
