Abstract:
This report describes the analysis of Subcomponent 4 (SC4) – Mitigation, of Kenya’s
Climate Change Action Plan. The analysis examines potential low-carbon development
opportunities in the six mitigation sectors set out in Article 4.1 of the United Nations
Framework Convention on Climate Change (UNFCCC): energy, transport, industry,
agriculture, forestry and waste management. This low-carbon scenario analysis – which
includes a bottom-up assessment of mitigation opportunities and a top-down economy-wide
economic, energy and emissions model – provides the evidence base for prioritizing lowcarbon
development opportunities and developing proposals for 1) nationally appropriate
mitigation actions (NAMAs); and 2) reducing emissions from deforestation and forest
degradation plus the role of conservation, sustainable management of forests and
enhancement of forest carbon stocks (REDD+).
