Global gas power plants exposed to a hotter climate by climate scenario

Sources

IEA analysis based on IPCC (https://interactive-atlas.ipcc.ch/) and S&P Global (https://www.spglobal.com/marketintelligence/en/).

Notes

The graph shows the share of gas power plants installed capacities for each level of extreme heat using the number of days with maximum temperature above 35°C, compared to the level of the pre-industrial period (1850-1900). The near term refers up to 2040, while long term covers the period 2081-2100.
