- Avoiding deforestation (Here comes description)
- Energy tax or subsidiy (Changing the prices through energy tax or subsidy for the various energy carriers influences the choice of technology and thus the level of emissions., Component: Energy supply)
- Implementation of sustainability criteria in bio-energy production (Sustainability criteria that could become binding for dedicated bio-energy production, such as the restrictive use of water-scarce or degraded areas., Component: Energy supply, Land cover and land use)
- Improved irrigation efficiency (Improved irrigation efficiency assumes an increase in the irrigation project efficiency and irrigation conveyance efficiency., Component: Water)
- Improved rainwater management (Improved rainwater management assumes a decrease in the evaporative losses from rainfed agriculture and the creation of small scale reservoirs to harvest rainwater during the wet period and use it during a dryer period. Both measures lead to more efficient use of water and increased yields on rainfed fields., Component: Water)
- Increase natural carbon storage (It should be noted that policy measures to increase carbon storage often generate certain co-benefits, such as the restoration of watershed and wildlife habitats, and the prevention of soil erosion.)
- Increased storage capacity (Increasing storage capacity assumes that the total water volume stored in large reservoirs will increase. This can either be established by an increase of the capacity of existing reservoirs, or by building new reservoirs., Component: Water)
- Mitigate environmental changes (Mitigating environmental changes, such as climate change, biodiversity loss and water stress)
- Production targets for energy technologies (Production targets for energy technologies can be set to force technologies through a learning curve., Component: Energy supply)
- Reducing health risk ((primary) prevention, i.e. eliminating or reducing the health risk)
- Restrictions on fuel trade (As part of energy security policies, fuel trade between different regions can be blocked., Component: Energy supply)
