Physical Climate Risks
Physical climate risks refer to the direct and indirect effects of a changing climate on an organization’s assets, operations, maintenance requirements, level of service, and future revenues. Our team builds on the well-established method of applying scenario analysis using global and regional climate models to evaluate physical risks and develop strategic adaptation plans that help protect against a range of plausible future climates. Matrix is currently supporting our clients to identify and understand their physical climate risks, evaluate adaptation strategies, and implement best practice solutions.
