The report underscores the vulnerability of energy infrastructure to extreme weather conditions, including heatwaves and storms, which can disrupt operations and compromise worker safety. Such disruptions may lead to power outages and increased costs for energy consumers. The reliance on natural gas-fired generation is seen as a stabilising factor, but the increase in carbon intensity raises concerns about environmental sustainability. These risks are particularly relevant for regions like India, where extreme weather events are becoming more frequent due to climate change.
