AI-based digital
twin for Europe's climate resilience

Developing an AI platform for European climate modelling, designed for deployment on European HPC and AI Factory infrastructures and aligned with initiatives such as DestinE.

Expected outcomes

By August 2030, three real outcomes

AI climate models ready for European science

Emulators and learned downscaling adapted and retrained for European use, with every model tested against observations before anyone relies on it.

An open platform built on shared standards

A modular system that handles the whole AI model lifecycle on European supercomputing and AI Factories, designed from the start to work alongside Destination Earth.

Climate information that holds up in practice

A demonstrated pre-operational prototype by 2030, proven in four settings that matter to science, industry and public services.

Use cases

Four use cases will show what the platform can do, from open questions in climate science to decisions taken in shipping, energy and public health.

Use Case 1: Advancing Earth System Science

Use Case 2: Climate-Resilient Shipping Routes

Use Case 3: Energy Infrastructure Planning for Climate Adaptation

Use Case 4: Climate & Health Early-Warning and Resilience

Explores the physical robustness and generalisability of the AI climate models. It also enables experiments that are impractical with conventional models, such as very large ensemble projections or long, high-resolution simulations of rare extremes.
Assesses how future changes in winds, sea ice and extreme weather could reshape shipping routes and safety at sea, providing data for climate-resilient maritime planning.
Evaluates the effect of chronic climate stressors such as heat, drought and storms on energy generation and grids over the coming decades. This enables site-specific forecasts that support resilient infrastructure design and risk mitigation.
Maps evolving health risks in future climates, including the risk of infectious disease outbreaks, to enable early warning and adaptation in the public health sector.
