Abstract: Global Warming, extreme temperatures and heat waves highly impact electricity sector. Heat waves disturb electricity production, storage and transport systems, and will provoke also an explosion of the electricity consumption. Thus, understanding West-African heat waves evolution and impacts on electricity sector will be of great interest. The need for adaptation urges to protect the West-African electricity sector in order to appropriately respond to ongoing and future demands
