Report 1: Climate Tech for Industrial Decarbonisation: What role for insurers?
Report 2: Bringing Climate Tech to Market: The powerful role of insurance
As climate risks intensify and the window to cap global warming at 1.5°C above pre-industrial levels closes, the need to accelerate the deployment of climate technologies is becoming more acute. While significant progress has been made in developing innovative climate technologies, most remain in the pre-commercialisation stages. Among the reasons for this are huge funding gaps, technical challenges with scaling and market readiness, and scarcity of data on the new, untested risks posed.
Drawing from the Geneva Association research series on climate tech and the insurance industry, this conference will explore how P&C re/insurers can help overcome some of these hurdles and demonstrate the benefits of an Insurability Readiness Framework (IRF), developed through a multi-stakeholder process led by The Geneva Association, to frame the risks of climate technologies and identify areas within projects that may pose challenges to insurability.
The conference featured a series of breakout sessions on green hydrogen, carbon management and long-duration energy storage.
