| Summary: | Climate change poses direct risks to
power sector investments, as the components of this sector
are highly sensitive to environmental variables such water
availability, extreme weather, and flooding. With this in
mind, it is imperative to account for and address these
changing conditions during development and design for
WB-financed power sector infrastructure. The World Bank has
made a commitment to mainstream climate change into its
operations and scaling up action for climate adaptation.
This good practice note aims to assist World Bank task teams
in incorporating climate adaptation and resilience into
power sector projects for client countries. |
