delta-climate™ platform

Core Features

The platform’s methodology is rooted in probabilistic modelling, using activity-based asset data to calculate risk. It does not track spend-based emissions; instead, it focuses on how physical climate hazards will impact specific locations and assets over time, providing a forward-looking assessment of risk based on authoritative climate modelling data. The platform delivers detailed risk analysis through several key features:

• Comprehensive Hazard Coverage: Models a wide range of acute and chronic physical risks, including floods, wildfires, windstorms, water stress, and sea-level rise, ensuring compliance with major reporting standards.

• Granular Climate Indicators: Provides access to over 200 asset-level metrics, such as projected flood depth, wind speed probabilities, and days of high wildfire risk.

• Financial Loss Quantification: Calculates direct financial damage for major hazards, including annual average losses and low-frequency, high-severity "tail risk" events, allowing for robust financial planning and disclosure.

• Intuitive SaaS Dashboard: A web-based analytics dashboard offers dynamic visualizations and interactive maps for on-the-fly assessment of asset portfolios and project financing.

• Seamless API Integration: Its Data-as-a-Service (DaaS) API allows for the seamless integration of quantified risk data—indicators, ratings, and losses—directly into an organization's proprietary risk management and reporting systems.

• Transparent & Auditable: The platform’s results are built on an open-core technology framework, offering full transparency in its methodology to support detailed disclosure and audit requirements.

Closing Insights

delta-climate™ is the commercial evolution of the open-source CLIMADA framework, a global multi-hazard impact model developed through over a decade of collaborative scientific research at ETH Zurich. This deep scientific heritage is its foundational differentiator, as it transforms peer-reviewed climate science into a rigorous, enterprise-grade SaaS tool. Unlike simpler carbon accounting software, it is engineered for organizations that must move from generic climate awareness to quantified financial exposure, providing auditable and defensible data.

The platform is well suited to the reporting toolkit of companies operating in the EU, where frameworks like the CSRD require detailed, forward-looking assessments of physical climate risks. It is equally powerful for financial institutions conducting due diligence for project finance, global corporations mapping supply chain vulnerabilities, and any entity needing to stress-test asset portfolios against future climate scenarios. Organizations should consider delta-climate™ when they require robust, science-backed data to inform strategic adaptation, financial planning, and regulatory compliance. The platform's value is further enhanced by its flexible SaaS and API delivery models and the expert advisory services available from its science-based team.
