Climate and energy transition: interaction and interdependence
The article discusses the issues of the development of energy infrastructure against the background of the emervious climatic changes that are currently monitored and projected in the future. Two mutrating aspects of this problem were investigated: the climatic dynamics forecast and its influence on the «green» industry of energy serving as the main drive driver. Based on the methods of neural network forecasting, the temporary relationship between the growth of the global temperature anomalies, the concentration of carbon dioxide in the atmosphere and the level of primary energy consumption, which shows that the observed high growth rates of C0<sub>2 </sub>concentration can be determined not only by anthropogenic effects, but also by other, non-energy factors. An assessment of the risks of investment in Green Energy in conditions under conditions of new climate challenges, which can be an obstacle to the decarbonization of the energy industry.
