This working paper is based on the EDM Toolkit, first published in 2017, an innovative technical approach for inclusive and integrated energy planning for local governments. In 2018 IIED and CAFOD, with local partners, Caritas Kitui and the Kitui County government in Kenya, applied EDM in Kitui to develop investment-ready solutions for the Kitui County Energy Plan (CEP). It focuses on the methodology used in developing the CEP rather than the proposed solutions as the CEP is still in draft form and yet to be finalized by the county government of Kitui.
This report, the first of three, provides a framework that helps adapt policy tools to promote circularity, material and energy efficiency and support sustainable markets for circular cars and services.

Using identical surveys a decade apart, this study examines how attitudes and willingness to pay (WTP) for climate policies have changed in the United States, China, and Sweden.
This report outlines why we need more circular trailblazers, how to spot them and what makes them successful at achieving impact on the circular economy beyond their lockstep growth.
This report analyses the approaches being taken by some leading cities to implement a zero emission area (ZEA).
