Πώς το Κλίμα Επηρεάζει την Ενεργειακή Ισορροπία
Climate primarily affects energy balance by altering both energy demand and supply.
Extreme weather events and rising temperatures increase demand for cooling or heating, while simultaneously disrupting energy production, transmission, and resource availability.

Increasing Energy Demand
Rising global temperatures directly increase energy demand, especially for cooling. Scientists say August was Earth's hottest month they have measured, demonstrating this trend. Such warming places greater stress on existing power grids and creates higher base load energy needs.
Disruptions and Policy Response
Climate hazards also disrupt energy supply chains and resource stability. These disruptions have wide spread societal consequences; for example, climate hazards disrupted school for 1 in 10 students in 2025, according to UNICEF. This necessitates a rapid shift, as highlighted by Baku Climate Action Week 2026 discussing an expedited energy transition.
