ESMAP Hands-on Energy Adaptation Toolkit (HEAT) is designed to guide a climate vulnerability assessment and adaptation options evaluation in the energy sector. Helps to raise awareness with key stakeholders and initiate dialogue on energy sector adaptation. The vulnerability assessment includes (a) climate risk screening to identify & prioritize hazards, current vulnerabilities, and risks from projected climate change through 2050, (b) identification of adaptation options, (c) high-level cost benefit analysis of key physical adaptation options.
