A Super El Niño is under way, and its consequences for energy systems are already visible. Hydro generation capacity is declining as water reserves fall, grid stress is intensifying as extreme weather events multiply, and commodity markets are absorbing a new layer of supply-side disruption. Most organisations are aware that energy risk has increased. Far fewer have adapted their operations or procurement strategies to reflect the environment they now face.​

This webinar examines what the Super El Niño means for energy risk in 2027, drawing on Verdantix research across grid reliability, energy procurement and sector-specific exposure. The discussion is structured around the two dimensions of energy risk generating the most financial consequence: supply and operational interruption, and the rising cost of energy on the balance sheet.​
