Meteorological and climate data are indeed essential both in
day-to-day energy management and for the definition of production
and distribution infrastructures. For instance, the supply of
electricity to users can be disturbed by extreme meteorological
events such as thunderstorms with unusually strong winds, severe
icing, severe cold spells, sea level elevation associated with
storm surges, floods ... To be protected against such events, it is
not sufficient to act after they have taken place. It is necessary
to identify their potential impacts precisely and assess the
probability of their occurrence. This book shows that this can only
be done through an enhanced dialogue between the energy community
and the climate and meteorology community. This implies an in-depth
dialogue between actors to define precisely what kind of data is
needed and how it should be used. Meteo-France has been in
long-term cooperation with the energy sector, including the fields
of electricity production and distribution. Drawing on this
experience, it should be noted in this respect the importance of
lo- term partnership between actors as exemplified here by the
message of EDF."
