The influence of temperature on conductors, insulators, and semiconductors in climate-resilient power systems
As climate change intensifies, rising temperatures and extreme weather events threaten power system reliability.
by Marius Grisaru

As climate change intensifies, rising temperatures and extreme weather events threaten power system reliability. Marius Grisaru explores how temperature fluctuations affect conductors, insulators, and semiconductors—altering electrical resistance, degrading insulation, and stressing critical components. With real-world examples and mitigation strategies, this article highlights the urgent need for climate-resilient power infrastructure.
