Climate Adaptation

As climate impacts intensify, Europe must not only cut emissions but also prepare for rising temperatures, extreme weather, and changing ecosystems. Climate adaptation is about building resilience in our communities, infrastructure, and energy systems to protect citizens and ensure continuity of services. Increasingly, regional and local energy agencies are evolving into climate and energy agencies, expanding their missions to support adaptation planning, risk assessments, and preparedness strategies. By combining expertise in energy transition with local knowledge of climate vulnerabilities, they help authorities and citizens design responses that safeguard both people and the planet.
