This document aims to enable the country's economic recovery following a decade of low growth. It notably seeks to create a low-carbon, resilient economy. Sectoral outcome 5.4 of the plan is to achieve improved National and Community Resilience to Climate Change Induced Disasters and Other Natural Disasters&nbsp;

This document builds on the 2003 <a href="https://climate-laws.org/geographies/eswatini/policies/national-energy-policy-a9231d62-9b58-47d3-b354-bb95ed9b7b6d">National Energy Policy</a>, notably to boost the production of energy from renewable sources. As stated in the document, the masterplan seeks to provide national decision makers with the quantitative basis for planning future energy sector development through identifying and addressing the country’s distinct barriers in the supply of energy. It uses modelling tools to build its recommendations that include the&nbsp;development of renewable energy options involving the private sector; the creation of a comprehensive distributed power generation plan; and the need to develop policies and regulations to facilitate private sector engagement in rural electrification. It also sets energy efficiency goals.

According to the project brief, Swaziland is experiencing a new humanitarian crisis resulting from the unrelenting onslaught of HIV and AIDS, deepening food insecurity due to erratic rainfall extremes, poverty and the declining capacity of national institutions to effectively provide adequate social services.
Consequently, the resilience and coping mechanisms of households continue to be negatively affected by a number of factors, including erratic climatic conditions induced by climate change, economic shocks, the erosion of household assets and increased morbidity and mortality levels due to HIV/AIDS. The process of sustained development is being interrupted by external shocks especially the cyclic droughts and floods that lead to a continuous fall of social indicators with institutions increasingly unable to respond effectively.
