Protect Critical Infrastructure Vulnerable to Extreme Heat Events

Implementation

In cases where existing communication, energy, public service, and transportation facilities and infrastructure are found to be vulnerable to extreme heat, bolster and/or upgrade associated infrastructure to be more resilient to periods of high heat (e.g., use of heat-tolerant materials).

Benefits: Reinforced and bolstered infrastructure and facilities can reduce the frequency of power outages that can interrupt the functions of ​business and residences.

Timeframe: Near term
