Abstract

Climate change-related events are increasing in frequency and consequence across Great Britain. Changing weather patterns are disrupting gas network assets, supply chains, and infrastructure, altering the risksandvulnerabilities on the network. This project aims to anticipate evolving weather trends impacting gas networks to ultimately reduce operational disruption and support SGN’s Climate Resilience Strategy.

This project will improve our understanding of the impact of changing weather patterns on the gas network, and provide SGN with data-driven insights and analytics on a range of climate risk types and hotspots across the supply chain for green gas production and across SGN’s network, impacts on network and infrastructural assets, types of vulnerabilities, and people, with recommendations for adapting to climate risks.
