This report is an external piece of analysis commissioned by the CCC from Newcastle University to help inform the CCC’s Seventh Carbon Budget advice. The analysis synthesises research into reasonable worst-case weather conditions for GB power generation, and suggests historical weather years that can be used as stress tests in energy system modelling. It takes into account both how the energy system is expected to change in future, and the potential effects of a changing climate.This report reflects the views of Newcastle University and does not represent the views of the CCC.
