Parc éolien Sainte-Croix — Wind farm
Sainte-Croix, canton de Vaud
Moderate action, warming reaches about 2°C
Watch closely
Climate exposure score
This is how exposed Parc éolien Sainte-Croix is to climate-related disruption in a world that warms by 2°C. A higher number means more disruption to output, more maintenance, or more risk to the structure itself.
Exposure is expected to peak around 2050.
What is driving the risk
Heatwave frequency
+14 by 2050Heat has little direct impact on turbine availability at this altitude.
Precipitation extremes
+27 by 2050Stronger storm bursts increase shutdown hours and blade fatigue.
Drought stress
+10 by 2050Dry spells are not a meaningful driver for this site.
Temperature variability
+32 by 2050More variable wind and temperature patterns make output harder to forecast.
Projected exposure, 2025 to 2050
Each line shows how exposure changes if global warming follows that path.
What this means for you
The main effect is variability rather than damage: output becomes harder to forecast and storm shutdowns increase modestly. Improved forecasting tools would recover most of the lost value.
