15、 of Japan.Climate Resilience for Energy Security in Southeast Asia Executive summary PAGE|5 I EA.CC BY 4.0.Executive summary Climate changes impacts have already become more apparent in Southeast Asia.The region has seen a significant rise in land surface temperatures by 0.8C since the 1980s,accompa
16、nied by more frequent and intense heatwaves.Rising temperatures have altered precipitation patterns and increased flood risks beyond the world average.In addition,the region is experiencing intensified tropical cyclones,particularly affecting countries like Myanmar,the Philippines and Viet Nam.Clima
17、te impacts are set to worsen in Southeast Asia.Erratic precipitation patterns are projected to increase,with more intense and frequent heavy rainfalls.The temporal concentration of precipitation may lead to higher risks of floods.Projections indicate that mean temperatures are likely to continue to
18、rise,with extreme heat events potentially doubling under low-emissions scenarios and quadrupling under high-emissions scenarios by the end of the century.Projections also suggest that tropical cyclones continue to become more intense,posing risks to coastal and offshore energy infrastructure.Combine
19、d with more intense tropical cyclones,accelerated sea level rise could threaten coastal energy assets with an increasing number of storm surges and coastal flooding.The impacts of these climate hazards are pervasive across the entire energy value chain,from fuel extraction and processing to electric
20、ity generation and distribution.Increasing climate risks pose challenges to an energy system already strained by rising electricity demand,heavy reliance on imported fuels and issues of energy affordability.Therefore,climate impacts have implications for the safe,reliable and affordable operation of

25、.The world average was calculated based on the land temperature data from the NOAA National Centers for Environmental information,Climate at a Glance:Global Time Series,accessed on 16 May 2024.The levels of climate hazard and exposure for river flood,coastal flood,tropical cyclone and drought are as
26、sessed based on the indicators of the INFORM Risk Index for“River Flood”,“Coastal Flood”,“Tropical Cyclone”and“Drought”.The minimum value is given 0 on the scale,while the maximum value is given 10.A detailed methodology of the indicator is described on the INFORM Risk Index page.In this report,the
27、risk is defined as Low(0-2.99),Medium(3-6.99)and High(7-10).Sources:IEA(2024),Weather,Climate and Energy Tracker;INFORM(2021),INFORM Risk Index 2024.High temperatures and heatwaves have critical impacts on the power sector,notably on solar PV,gas-fired power plants and electricity networks.Higher te
28、mperatures may lead to less solar power generation by degrading generation efficiency and increasing the electrical resistance,while damaging cells and other materials.Similarly,natural gas-fired power plants can see a decrease in power generation due to a reduced air mass flow and increasing temper
29、ature of cooling water.Although the impacts of extreme heat are currently limited,solar PV and natural gas-fired power plants are projected to experience more frequent extreme heat events in the coming decades.Particularly in a high-emissions scenario,nearly 70%of solar PV and over 90%of natural gas
30、-fired power plants would see more than 20 hot days above 35C thresholds by 2100,presenting a notable increase from the current level.Electricity grids are also under increasing stress due to increasing extreme heat events.Overhead power lines can heat up,expand and sag while underground power cable
31、s could experience short circuits due to stresses on cable and joint Climate Resilience for Energy Security in Southeast Asia Executive summary PAGE|7 I EA.CC BY 4.0.insulating materials.Critical components such as transformers,inverters and substations are also at higher risk of failure from overhe

33、ruptions due to inundation in mining pits and physical damage.If climate change is not mitigated on time,around 75%of coal mines,75%of copper mines and 30%of nickel mines in the region could see a more than 10%increase in heavy rainfall in the middle of this century compared with the pre-industrial
34、period.The changes in precipitation patterns also require building climate resilience of hydropower.Hydropower,which is a crucial part of the energy mix in countries such as Laos PDR and Viet Nam,is sensitive to changes in precipitation patterns.Increased annual and seasonal variability in precipita
35、tion may lead to a decrease in hydropower generation capacity factor,5%by 2100 compared with 1970-2010 in a low-emissions scenario or nearly 9%in a high-emissions scenario.Some Mekong River basin countries,which have already experienced electricity supply disruptions due to climate change,are projec
36、ted to have the largest drop.The intensification of tropical cyclones is another concern to energy security.Tropical cyclones can directly threaten the physical resilience of energy systems,inflicting damages to assets with severe winds,heavy rainfall,landslides and storm surges with the combination
37、 of sea level rise.In Southeast Asia,nearly half of the solar PV and hydropower installed capacities are situated in cyclone-prone areas,far exceeding the global level(15%).Over 40%of wind turbines and over 20%of electricity grids are also exposed to tropical cyclones.Some refineries located in coas
38、tal and cyclone-prone areas could face severe coastal floodings or storm surges as sea level rises and tropical cyclones intensify.Shifting the way energy infrastructure is planned and developed can help mitigate climate impacts,while also supporting energy transition and security.A climate-resilien

41、decades,the inadequate quality of observation data and climate projections in the region Climate Resilience for Energy Security in Southeast Asia Executive summary PAGE|8 I EA.CC BY 4.0.remains a major bottleneck for climate resilience,while the energy sector climate resilience is often neglected in

48、Introduction PAGE|9 I EA.CC BY 4.0.Introduction Southeast Asia stands at the forefront of the climate crisis on energy security.Higher average temperatures and irregular precipitation patterns are making heatwaves,floods and droughts more frequent,while sea level rise and intensified tropical cyclon
49、es are becoming prevalent.The increasing impacts of climate change are altering the landscape of energy system and have profound implications for energy security in Southeast Asia.Southeast Asias energy system is already strained due to rapidly rising electricity demand,heavy reliance on imported fu
50、els and energy affordability.More frequent heavy rainfalls and floods add challenges to coal and critical mineral mining,while the temporal concentration of precipitation requires hydropower resilience.Rising temperatures and extreme heatwaves put stress on the electricity generation assets and netw
51、ork,reducing their efficiency.Intensification of tropical cyclones combined with sea level rise also raises concerns about energy assets in coastal areas and offshore.Building and strengthening climate resilience of energy systems is increasingly important due to the escalating climate change risks
52、to energy security.Climate resilience is the ability to anticipate,absorb,accommodate and recover from the effects of a potentially hazardous event related to climate change.A climate-resilient energy system is one that can prepare for changes in climate,adapt to and withstand the slow-onset changes
53、 in climate patterns,continue to operate under the immediate shocks from extreme weather events,and restore the systems function after climate-driven disruptions.This report,Climate Resilience for Energy Security in Southeast Asia,is designed to support building climate resilience and enhancing ener
54、gy security in the region.This report provides a comprehensive analysis of climate trends,their impacts on energy systems and strategic measures for enhancing resilience in the following key chapters.The first chapter provides an overview of historical trends and projections of four major climate ha
55、zards in the region focusing on four climate aspects:temperature,precipitation,wind and sea level rise.By comparing different greenhouse gas concentration trajectories,it aims to identify key climate hazards that would have strong impacts on the energy sectors resilience in Southeast Asia.The second

57、how various climate hazards would affect each segment of energy systems.The third chapter outlines strategies and measures to enhance climate resilience of energy systems based on the conceptual framework of resilience.It identifies actions for each phase of climate resilience(readiness,robustness,r
58、esourcefulness and recovery),discussing the role of policy,investment and technologies in building climate resilience.Climate Resilience for Energy Security in Southeast Asia Trends and projections of climate change PAGE|11 I EA.CC BY 4.0.Trends and projections of climate change Southeast Asia,with
59、a tropical climate with high temperatures and humidity,is now grappling with heightened occurrences of extreme weather events due to climate change.Higher average temperatures and changing precipitation patterns are making heatwaves,floods and droughts more frequent,while an accelerated rise in sea
60、levels and intensified tropical cyclones are becoming prevalent.These shifts are altering the landscape of energy demand and supply,posing a significant risk to the regions energy security.This chapter focuses on four climate-driven hazards in the Southeast Asia region that affect energy supply and
61、demand:temperature,precipitation,wind and sea level rise.Each hazard is thoroughly examined,delving into historical trends and projected changes.This chapter presents projected changes comparing different trajectories of GHG concentrations so that the analysis can provide a comprehensive overview of
62、 climate change trends.The chapter aims to identify and highlight key hazards which would have the greatest impacts on the energy sectors resilience in Southeast Asia.Global trajectories of GHG concentrations The direction and intensity of future climate change depend on the trajectory of GHG concen
63、trations globally,largely determined by human activities.The Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change(IPCC)Sixth Assessment Report defines five Shared Socioeconomic Pathways(SSPs)that explore possible evolutions of human societies and their implications for the climate.They cover a wide range of fu
64、ture pathways,from a scenario in which GHG emissions decline drastically to net zero by 2050 and are negative in the second half of the century(SSP1-1.9)to a scenario in which emissions continue to rise sharply,doubling from todays levels by 2050 and more than tripling by 2100(SSP5-8.5).SSP1-1.9,whi
65、ch is the most similar to the IEAs Net Zero Emissions by 2050(NZE)Scenario,sets out a pathway of limiting global warming below 1.5C in 2100 relative to pre-industrial levels with limited overshoot.SSP1-2.6,which is close to the IEAs Announced Pledges Scenario(APS),implies net zero emissions in the s
66、econd half of the century and limits the temperature rise below 2C.SSP2-4.5,which is aligned most closely with the IEAs Stated Policy Scenario(STEPS),limits global warming below 3C.Climate Resilience for Energy Security in Southeast Asia Trends and projections of climate change PAGE|12 I EA.CC BY 4.

74、 Extreme heat events would double in a low-emissions scenario and quadruple in a high-emissions scenario Southeast Asia has become hotter,with a land surface temperature increase from 25.02C in 1979-1988 to 25.76C in 2013-2022.Together with the increase in mean temperature,most of Southeast Asia has
75、 seen an increase in the number of warm nights(especially during El Nio periods1)and the intensity and frequency 1 Warm nights are defined by the IPCC as nights where the minimum temperature exceeds the 90th percentile,where the respective temperature distributions are generally defined with respect

77、nd Viet Nam experienced an unprecedented level of heatwaves,breaking the records of the hottest days in Thailand and Viet Nam.The heatwaves caused damage to energy infrastructure and electricity supply disruptions due to soaring electricity demand(e.g.22.5%rise in average electricity consumption in
78、Hanoi)and reduced water levels in hydropower dams.In Viet Nam,some cities had to cut power supply due to the failures in grids.The IPCC projects that Southeast Asia is likely to experience an increase in temperature and extreme heat events.Southeast Asia is projected to see around a 1.6C increase in
79、 mean surface temperature by the end of the century relative to pre-industrial levels under a low-emissions scenario(Below 2C)and around 3.3C increase in a high-emissions scenario(Above 3C).Although the increase in mean temperature of Southeast Asia is likely to be less than the global average tempe
80、rature increase in all scenarios,the region would be one of the most exposed to extreme heat events.Under a high-emissions scenario(Above 3C),Southeast Asia is projected to face 48 days of maximum land temperature above 35C,which is almost four times higher than the number of days of the pre-industr
81、ial period.Even under a low-emissions scenario(Below 2C),the region is likely to see 25 days of maximum land temperature over the thresholds of 35C,two times higher than that of the pre-industrial period.The increase in days with maximum temperature above 35C is especially pronounced along the Mekon

83、ce:IEA analysis based on IPCC(2021),Working Group I Interactive Atlas.El Nio Southern Oscillation El Nio Southern Oscillation(ENSO)describes the climate phenomenon of periodic fluctuation in different phases of winds and sea surface temperatures over the tropical Pacific Ocean.ENSO is composed of th
84、ree phases:a neutral phase,a warm phase(El Nio)and a cold phase(La Nia).El Nio,characterised by higher-than-average sea surface temperatures in the eastern tropical Pacific and a weakening of the trade winds,typically has a warming influence on global temperatures.La Nia,which is characterised by be
85、low-average sea surface temperatures in the central and eastern tropical Pacific and a strengthening of the Climate Resilience for Energy Security in Southeast Asia Trends and projections of climate change PAGE|15 I EA.CC BY 4.0.trade winds,has the opposite effect.Although ENSO has widespread impact
86、s around the world,the levels of impacts vary among countries and regions.There are ongoing scientific debates on the extent to which climate change affects ENSO cycles.Although the strength and frequency of intense El Nio and La Nia events have increased relative to the pre-industrial period,the IP
87、CC notes that the evidence attributing this increase to climate change is inconclusive.The latest studies using simulated models,however,suggest that ENSO variations have grown 10%more intense since 1960 due to anthropogenic climate change.The World Meteorological Organization also points out that c
88、limate change is likely to affect the impacts related to ENSO in terms of the intensity and frequency of extreme weather and climate events.ENSO has a substantial impact on Southeast Asia,affecting both temperature and precipitation.In most of the region,El Nio episodes are associated with reduced r
89、ainfall and prolonged droughts,followed by an increasing number of warm nights and higher maximum temperatures.In fact,the eight hottest Aprils in Southeast Asia between 1980 and 2016 coincided with El Nio years.During the 2023 El Nio,Indonesia experienced record-setting droughts,leading to forest f
90、ires and water shortages.The Philippines also experienced below-average rainfall.On the contrary,La Nia has the opposite impact on rainfall and temperature,causing heavy rains over Southeast Asian countries such as Indonesia,Malaysia and the Philippines.Precipitation Intense rainfall has increased i
91、n Southeast Asia,raising flooding risks Precipitation in Southeast Asia is largely determined by the regions monsoon systems,which are characterised by pronounced seasonal reversals of precipitation.The Southeast Asia monsoon starts in late May or early June and progresses towards the northeast,endi
92、ng in late September or early October.The rainy monsoon season between June and September contributes to more than 75%of the annual rainfall over much of the region.Countries such as Cambodia,Lao PDR,Myanmar,the Philippines,Thailand and Viet Nam are under the area of influence of the regions monsoon
93、 systems.Southeast Asia has witnessed an increase in heavy rainfall events2 across the region since the 1950s,while the total number of rainy days has declined.3 Those 2 Heavy rainfall is considered by the IPCC to be when the daily precipitation exceeds 100 mm,while moderate rainfall is when the dai
94、ly precipitation is between 5 mm and 100 mm.3 Days with 1 mm of rain Climate Resilience for Energy Security in Southeast Asia Trends and projections of climate change PAGE|16 I EA.CC BY 4.0.effects have been particularly notable in Thailand,Malaysia,Viet Nam,and the southern Philippines.In Thailand,
95、for instance,the average daily rainfall intensity increased by 0.24 mm to 0.73 mm per day per decade,while the average number of wet days decreased by 1.3 days to 5.9 days per decade from 1955 to 2014.Climate change is considered a major reason for the increase in rainfall intensity in Southeast Asi
96、a.A warmer temperature increases evaporation,allows air to hold more moisture in it,and thus leads to more frequent and intense rainfalls.The latest IPCC report says that human-induced climate change contributed to the increase in the frequency and intensity of heavy precipitation events since 1950.
97、Intensification of tropical cyclones is also increasing heavy precipitation events.Indeed,in Southeast Asia,rainfall associated with tropical cyclones has increased since 1950.Tropical cyclone-induced floods accounted for 24.6%of the occurrence of all floods between 1985 and 2018 and brought bigger
98、impacts than other types of floods in the Southeast Asian countries of Cambodia,Lao PDR,Myanmar,Thailand and Viet Nam.In addition,ENSO patterns contribute to heavy rainfalls in Southeast Asia.For instance,when Southeast Asia experienced a multi-year La Nia event from mid-2020 to early 2023,the amoun
99、t of precipitation over Southeast Asia significantly increased,particularly during the winter season.In 2021 during the La Nia episode,Singapore reached its second-wettest year since 1980,and Malaysia and the Philippines also had rainfall well above their historical averages.The increase in flooding
100、 risks with heavy rainfalls,intensification of tropical cyclones and ENSO effects has become a major concern in several parts of Southeast Asia.According to the INFORM Risk Index,a majority of Southeast Asian countries,including Viet Nam,Thailand,Myanmar,Cambodia,Indonesia,and Lao PDR are estimated
101、to have a high flooding risk.Climate Resilience for Energy Security in Southeast Asia Trends and projections of climate change PAGE|17 I EA.CC BY 4.0.Level of river flood risk for Southeast Asian countries,2024 IEA.CC BY 4.0.Notes:The level of climate hazard is assessed based on the indicator“River
102、flood”.The minimum value is given 0 on the scale,while the maximum value is given 10.A detailed methodology of the indicator is described on the INFORM Risk Index page.In this report,the risk is defined as Low(0-2.99),Medium(3-6.99)and High(7-10).Source:IEA analysis based on INFORM(2021),INFORM Risk
103、 Index 2024.Climate projections show that Southeast Asia is likely to experience more intense and frequent heavy rainfalls including tropical cyclone-related rainfall.Climate projections show that more intense rainfalls,indicated by the one-day maximum precipitation,are especially notable in the coa
104、stal regions of Myanmar,the Philippines and Viet Nam.Especially when crossing the threshold of 2C of warming,the region is likely to experience significantly different levels of changes in terms of heavy precipitation,run-off and flood risks.For instance,climate projections show that the increase in
105、 the frequency and intensity of heavy rainfalls would be more marked in higher-emissions scenarios,and the rate of tropical cyclone-related rainfall would increase more rapidly in a scenario over 4C arming(28%)than in a scenario of 1.5C warming(11%).Such increase in heavy rainfalls could lead to a n
106、otable increase of the total flood damage in river basins in Southeast Asia.Rapid urbanisation in the region could accelerate the increase of flood damage,given that the portion of urban land in a high-frequency flood zone is projected to expand to nearly 75%in Southeast Asia by 2030.Climate Resilie

108、itation raises another issue droughts Since 1950,most Southeast Asian countries have experienced a reduction in the number of wet days while rainfall intensity has increased.It was a notable phenomenon given that global annual mean precipitation generally increased as global warming made air store m
109、ore water.The dominant cause of the observed decrease in Southeast Asian monsoon precipitation was anthropogenic aerosol forcing,which weakened the land-ocean thermal contrast,and thus inhibited the development of monsoons.As rainfalls have become more temporally concentrated,some parts of Southeast
110、 Asia have suffered from a temporary increase in aridity.The number of mean consecutive dry days in Southeast Asia increased from 25.8 in the pre-industrial period to 27.6 in 1995-2014.Climate Resilience for Energy Security in Southeast Asia Trends and projections of climate change PAGE|19 I EA.CC B
111、Y 4.0.The increase in dry days and decrease in wet days resulting from the temporal concentration of rainfall events has caused temporary droughts in some parts of Southeast Asia.In the Philippines,for example,droughts increased during the dry season over the period between 1951 and 2010,despite the
112、 growth in precipitation during the wet season.According to the INFORM Risk Index,Thailand,Cambodia,Viet Nam and the Philippines have a higher level of drought risk than the world average.Similarly,the Association of Southeast Asian Nations(ASEAN)reported that more than 70%of the Southeast Asian lan
113、d area was affected by droughts from 2015-2020.Level of drought risk for Southeast Asian countries,2024 IEA.CC BY 4.0.Notes:The level of climate hazard is assessed based on the indicator“Droughts”.The minimum value is given 0 on the scale,while the maximum value is given 10.A detailed methodology of
114、 the indicator is described on the INFORM Risk Index page.In this report,the risk is defined as Low(0-2.99),Medium(3-6.99)and High(7-10).Source:IEA analysis based on INFORM(2021),INFORM Risk Index 2024.During the years of El Nio events,the risk of droughts increases further in Southeast Asia.In 2016
115、,for instance,an El Nio episode contributed to a severe drought that resulted in the worst water crisis in 60 years in Indonesia,the Philippines and Thailand.When El Nio prevailed in 2018-2020,ASEAN reported that more than 200 million people were exposed to severe drought,representing around 30%of t
