dc.descriptionThe National Cooling Action Plan Methodology for the MENA Region provides a practical framework to support governments in developing integrated cooling strategies aligned with climate, energy, and development priorities. Developed by the UN Environment Programme Cool Coalition in partnership with the Regional Center for Renewable Energy and Energy Efficiency (RCREEE), with financial support from the Climate and Clean Air Coalition (CCAC), the methodology adapts the global NCAP approach to the specific conditions of high-ambient-temperature countries in the Middle East and North Africa. The report outlines a structured process to assess cooling demand, strengthen coordination across sectors, and translate national commitments into implementable policies and investment pipelines covering buildings, appliances, refrigerants, cold chains, and energy systems. By linking cooling access, energy efficiency, and emissions reduction within a single planning framework, the methodology supports countries in developing National Cooling Action Plans that move from pledges to implementation while aligning with the Paris Agreement, the Kigali Amendment, and the Global Cooling Pledge.en
