Abstract

This policy brief aims to present international and domestic best practices on decentralised energy planning. Drawn from country (Kenya, Malawi, Tanzania and India) and sector (health) case studies, workshops and stakeholder interviews, the findings in this policy brief could be used to inform the Government’s Energy Sector Devolution Plan and help local authorities prepare for decentralised energy planning.

This work is part of the Climate Compatible Growth programme.
