**Background**

The International Renewable Energy Agency** **(IRENA) is an inter-governmental organisation mandated with the widespread and increased adoption and sustainable use of all forms of renewable energy. At present, IRENA has 169 Members (168 States and the European Union) that acceded to its Statute, and 15 additional States in the process of accession. IRENA supports countries in their transition to a sustainable energy future and serves as the principal platform for international cooperation, a centre of excellence, and a repository of policy, technology, resource, and financial knowledge on renewable energy. The Agency implements its mandate with the view of sustainable development, increased energy security, and low-carbon economic growth and prosperity.

IRENA’s Knowledge, Policy and Finance Center (KPFC) supports countries’ capacity to design long-term enabling renewable energy policy frameworks. Within this mandate, the focus of the Knowledge, Policy and Finance Centre (KPFC) is on collecting data, developing knowledge platforms and conducting analysis to support the creation of enabling environments for investment and growth in renewables. This entails analytical work on policy and finance, energy access, socio-economic benefits, building a gateway to knowledge, giving input to advisory services that the Agency provides to its member states and at regional levels, and targeted engagement with the private sector and civil society.

Among different workstreams, analysing the socio-economic benefits of renewable energy are gaining prominence as a key consideration among decision-makers. IRENA’s work on measuring renewable energy benefits has played a key role in providing quantitative evidence of the positive impacts of this transition, particularly in terms of economic growth, welfare, and jobs. Since 2015, IRENA has been contributing to macroeconomic analysis from the REmap transition roadmap. The forthcoming analysis is expected to address an important knowledge gap by exploring, through macroeconomic models, the socio-economic impacts of increasing the transition ambition.
