With the backdrop of the fires in California and other states, along with Hurricane Sally, AT&T is expanding the reach of its climate analysis tool.
In order to gauge the impact of climate change on its network and operations up to 30 years in the future, AT&T’s Climate Change Tool (CCAT) has moved beyond the pilot phase in four states in the Southeast to the entire contiguous U.S.
AT&T has forked out about $1 billion to recover from climate-related weather impacts over the past four years. With the wide-scale deployment of CCAT, A&T said it could better insure the resilience of its infrastructure.
