During a recent government meeting, discussions highlighted the increasing frequency of extreme weather events impacting the reliability of gas systems. Elliott emphasized that while outages may be labeled as unplanned, the recurrence of such events every other year suggests a need for reevaluation of their classification. The call for maintaining the reliability of gas infrastructure was underscored, reflecting growing concerns over the resilience of energy systems in the face of climate change. This dialogue points to a pressing need for strategic planning and investment to address the challenges posed by extreme weather, ensuring consistent energy supply for communities.
