HORIZON EUROPE
European
Expected Outcome:Projects are expected to contribute to all of the following outcomes:
Beyond state of the art asset-level models for critical infrastructures will allow for a better assessment of adaptation optionsPublic authorities will be enabled to compare different adaptation approaches on the basis of a model information system on critical infrastructureAn analysis of gaps in European data regarding the assessment of direct[1] and indirect[2] economic consequences of damages to critical infrastructures. Scope:This topic relates to the Mission’s first objective: preparing and planning for climate resilience and the need for a better understanding of climate change related risks.
To fully comprehend climate change related risks, information on assets is necessary. Asset-level modelling requires combining meteorological/hydrological hazard models with information on assets (their location and ideally their construction costs and quality, as well as historical loss data). Assets can be publicly or privately owned infrastructure, including critical infrastructure, as well as natural and land areas or housing areas. This topic addresses the provision of...

To fully comprehend climate change related risks, information on assets is necessary. Asset-level modelling requires combining meteorological/hydrological hazard models with information on assets (their location and ideally their construction costs and quality, as well as historical loss data). Assets can be publicly or privately owned infrastructure, including critical infrastructure, as well as natural and land areas or housing areas. This topic addresses the provision of asset-level information to public authorities, on critical infrastructures.
The proposal should consider the effect of multiple hazards (including complex, cascading and compound disasters) and should develop improved assessment models, including improved model coupling. For instance, coupling hazard, exposure and vulnerability, stemming from sources such as Copernicus and its Copernicus Climate Change Service (C3S)[3], with assessments of impacts and of potential adaptation measures, thereby completely integrating the causal chain from climate stressors to adaptive responses into one unifying modelling framework.
The proposal should consider several critical infrastructures (for example electricity supply, ICT, transport systems) across several regions and how its functioning might be impeded by climate change induced risks. The models developed should include reconstruction costs, the costs of not providing the intended service as well as knock-on effects on other systems. The model should be designed as a decision support tool for public authorities allowing them to assess costs of various adaptation solutions across several regions.
The proposal must demonstrate that it goes beyond state of the art and should identify data gaps and discuss approaches to overcome the data gaps in the future. In particular, the proposal should look at
a) resolution and completeness of data for exposure assessments
b) data on construction costs, construction quality and characteristics (notably protection against extreme weather events) as well as on planned redundancies.
c) data on the use of the infrastructures (for example how many trains, cars or households are served)
The proposals should give due regard to the Commission technical guidance[4] on the climate proofing of infrastructure in the period 2021-2027, notably as regards climate resilience, the climate vulnerability and risk assessment, as well as the identification, economic and technical appraisal, and implementation of relevant adaptation measures.
