About this book
As the impacts of the changing climate increase pressure on Asia and the Pacific's energy supply and demand, this report analyzes how the energy sector can overcome challenges and build climate-resilient energy systems that safeguard livelihoods and underpin sustainable growth.
It outlines key barriers to the development of resilient energy systems including limited availability of quality data on the impacts of the changing climate, less attention to adaptation than to mitigation in the energy sector, insufficient adaptation finance, and the slow adoption of innovative technologies. Underscoring the importance of coordinated action from governments, suppliers, and consumers, it shows how improving weather and climate data for energy systems, embedding resilience into national policies, scaling up adaptation financing and adopting innovative technologies can help transform energy networks into robust systems that catalyze resilience and prosperity.
