Resilience as the key to the energy future

The resilience of energy Grids is crucial for the transition to renewables and for addressing climate change. Grids, which are increasingly digital and flexible, must handle an increasing flow of energy from nonprogrammable sources, ensuring stability and security. However, extreme weather events, such as heat waves, storms, and floods, put these infrastructures under strain, increasing the risk of failure.

To support decarbonization, the length of the grids will need to double over the next 20 years, with global investments exceeding $600 billion by 2030. It is essential to modernize and strengthen the grids by adopting climate adaptation and resilience strategies to respond to new climate conditions, while also supporting the increase in electricity consumption, which is projected to rise by 60% by 2050.
