Power system planners have considered the impacts of weather and climate from the design of the first electricity networks. However, this task is growing more complex as power systems become increasingly weather dependent with growing electrification and renewable generation. As a result, power system planners must rise to meet the challenge of re-imagining the future electricity network. This presentation will discuss the importance of embedding consideration of weather and climate throughout the entire planning process. A particular emphasis will be placed on climactic hazards such as wildfires and storms and the implications for power system planning.
