Climate risk
In Norway, climate change is expected to result in a warmer, wilder, and wetter climate, but with significant regional and local variations. Extreme weather events and natural disasters will occur more frequently. If infrastructure is not adapted, this can lead to material and economic consequences and affect punctuality and regularity.
Since 2001, Avinor, the Norwegian Public Roads Administration, the Norwegian Coastal Administration, and the Norwegian Railway Directorate have assessed the impact of climate change on transport infrastructure in Norway through work on the National Transport Plan (NTP). In addition, Avinor has carried out its own risk and vulnerability analyses as well as a number of measures on its own infrastructure. Avinor also works on climate adaptation through ICAO, Eurocontrol, and the industry organization Airport Council International (ACI).
Read the climate adaptation analysis for Avinor from 2022:
There are increasingly greater expectations and requirements from both the financial markets and other stakeholders that companies have a conscious approach to climate risk, both physical risk and transition risk. In 2025, Avinor completed a climate risk analysis in accordance with the methodology developed by the Task Force on Carbon Related Financial Disclosure (TCFD).
