Abstract

The growing frequency and intensity of climate-related events and natural disasters present substantial challenges to the resilience and adaptability of critical infrastructure, particularly electricity transmission and distribution networks. This study provides a review of existing literature and incorporates recent research findings to identify the primary factors influencing resilience and adaptability within these networks. The study emphasizes the importance of key areas including technical design strategies, infrastructure investments, facility design considerations, organizational capabilities, operational strategies, and supply chain factors. The findings offer essential insights for stakeholders in the energy sector aiming to enhance the resilience of transmission and distribution networks against climate change impacts and natural disasters. Additionally, the study underscores the importance of establishing standardized resilience metrics and advocates for future research focusing on cost-benefit analyses and data-driven approaches to predict and mitigate cascading failures and high-impact, low-probability (HILP) events.

Keyphrases: Infrastructure resilience, Transmission and Distribution networks, climate change, natural disasters
