Driving water industry infrastructure resilience amid extreme weather events
In this blog, Tom Burgoyne from Anglian Water and Elliot Christou from Connected Places Catapult discuss how the Climate Resilience Demonstrator (CReDo) is helping shape the water industry’s understanding of the impact of extreme weather on our infrastructure.

As critical national infrastructure providers of all types continue to grapple with changing climate risks, data and digital twins must be leveraged to properly understand and mitigate co-dependencies, so that the services people rely on for their health, wellbeing and work continue to be delivered.’
