Energy Supply: Summary of National and Regional Impacts, Challenges and Opportunities

table 4.3

This table appears in chapter 4 of the Climate Change Impacts in the United States: The Third National Climate Assessment report.

Increased temperatures, changing precipitation patterns, and sea level rise will affect many sectors and regions, including energy production, agriculture yields, and infrastructure damage. Changes are also projected to affect hydropower, solar photovoltaic, and wind power, but the projected impacts are not well defined at this time.
