Upcoming Events
Physical climate risk can no longer be treated as a future concern. Following another year of extreme climate events and growing disruption to assets, infrastructure and supply chains, the financial materiality of climate hazards is no longer a theoretical projection, it is an increasingly immediate business reality.
Driven by the legally binding net zero mandate and the UK government’s flagship Clean Power 2030 Action Plan, the nation’s power system is undergoing a fundamental transformation—transitioning from a centralised, fossil-fuel network into an intelligent, distributed, and resilient architecture. According to the National Energy System Operator (NESO), achieving clean power requires up to £60 billion in network investment by 2030, alongside broader capital requirements scaling between £100 billion and £240 billion by 2050. With public expenditure constrained, mobilising private institutional capital at a scale of £40 billion annually is an urgent economic imperative.
