We present an analysis of parallel electron energy transport in the scrape-off layer (SOL), considering the convective and conductive channels, as well as the radiation and neutral inelastic energy transfer channels involving atomic deuterium. Kinetic effects in both equilibria and conductive transients are explored by utilizing the capability of the SOL-KiT code to treat electrons as either a fluid or kinetically. We find kinetic effects in multiple channels, with an emphasis on those occurring during the investigated conductive transients. Energetic electron effects in the heat flux, as well as a modification of ionization rates of up to 40% compared to Maxwellian rates during perturbations in detached conditions, are reported and discussed.
