Drawing on examples and research from around the world, it addressed the following questions:

  • What is the state of the art of research about the social impacts of clean energy policies targeting low-income households? What is the latest research on the distributional patterns of these impacts? What does this research tell us about how to achieve positive outcomes?
  • How can policymakers design progressive clean energy policies? How can the benefits of clean energy policies be distributed fairly and equitably?
  • What are best practice examples of clean energy policies that have helped reduce poverty and inequality?
