CERAWeek 2026: How the Energy Industry Balances Growth, Climate Risks, and the Urgency to Adapt
At CERAWeek 2026, the world’s premier energy conference, industry leaders confronted a paradox: record growth driven by AI, data centers, and geopolitical shifts, yet an undeniable urgency to address climate risks. Climate adaptation is no longer optional: extreme weather and chronic risks demand immediate action. With public climate data weakening under U.S. policy, companies turn to private tools, but face new challenges, such as transparency, auditability and operational

Wind Power Yield Under Climate Constraints: How Projections can Secure Long-Term Energy Production
Wind energy is experiencing rapid growth and plays a key role in the global energy transition and GHG reduction. However, its production heavily depends on climate conditions, such as wind, temperature or pression and can evolve with global warming. Estimating wind power yield over 20 to 30 years thus requires integrating climate projections to anticipate changes in wind patterns, air density and associated risks. Wind yield projections can help secure investments and improve

Toward a Global "TRACC"? Climate Projections by Global Warming Levels in Worldwide Policy and Regulation
Climate projections based on global warming levels are increasingly used to guide climate adaptation policies worldwide. Like the French Trajectoire de Référence pour l'Adaptation au Changement Climatique (TRACC), this approach links climate impacts directly to temperature thresholds, including the Paris Agreement targets. However, differing reference periods and methodologies create challenges for international consistency and a need for hamonization.
