Written in collaboration with Energy UK<\/a> and RenewableUK<\/a> in response to Department for Environment, Food and Rural Affairs’ (Defra) fourth round of Adaptation Reporting Power (ARP4) on behalf of the energy generation sector, the Sector Overview 2024 examines climate governance, risk assessments, action plans, and sector interdependencies.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

It provides an update on progress in the electricity generation sector\u2019s adaptation to climate change since the third Climate Change Adaptation Report (CCAR3) published in 2021. The scope of the report has been expanded to include solar energy and for the first time includes input from both Solar Energy UK and RenewableUK. Key climate risks identified include extreme temperatures, high winds, lightning, and flooding. The report demonstrates the strong engagement in climate risk reporting from the members of each trade association and recommends that adaptation reporting remains voluntary in future rounds and suggests a simplified reporting template and clearer alignment of reporting frameworks by Defra.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
