Webinar I Fostering decision-useful information on physical climate risks

- By : Romain HUBERT

Financial actors are now exposed to the impacts of climate change on the real economy, these impacts are observable and will intensify and the years to come. Financial institutions need to prepare for physical climate risks; however, they face a lack of relevant science-based information to make the decisions.

 

– How to meet financial institutions’ needs to analyze exposure to physical climate risks?

– What are the key challenges?

– How climate scientists and financial practitioners can collaborate to overcome them?Speakers :

Sophie Dejonckheere, Senior Advisor, Climate Finance – CICERO, Center for International Climate Research

Romain Hubert, Expert, Climate Finance – I4CE, Institute for Climate Economics

Dr. Florian Gallo, Senior Advisor – Carbone 4

David Lunsford, Head of Development & Co-Founder – Carbon Delta

Dr. Nico Kröner, Product Development Manager – South Pole

 

 

This event is an opportunity for financial practitioners to learn science-based and pragmatic recommendations about what physical climate risk assessment should look like, what kind of scientific information can be used and why, but also pave the way forward.

    Green industry: the game is kicking off

    Faced with international competition exacerbated by the US Inflation Reduction Act, Team Europe (and longtime team member, France) is preparing its response. The team’s tactics tackle two challenges: greening existing industrial sectors such as steel or cement, and industrialising the production of green goods, particularly those cleantechs that will make the transition a reality, such as heat pumps or electrolysers. To meet the first challenge, the French government has put 5 to 10 billion euros of public money on the table to decarbonise the most polluting production sites, in return for private investment. But has the extent of the industrial investment needs been properly assessed?

    Investments to decarbonise heavy industry in France: what, how much and when?

    Industry: relocation and decarbonisation at the heart of the debate. The recent succession of crises (health, energy, geopolitical) and increased international competition have prompted France to look for ways to strengthen its industrial and energy sovereignty. It faces this challenge in addition to the challenge of decarbonising its industry. In this context, France and Europe are developing industrial policies with two objectives – relocation and decarbonisation – and with new tools such as the France 2030 plan and the Net Zero Industry Act at the European level. These policies target both ‘historical’ industries, such as steel and cement, and new clean technologies, from solar to batteries.

    The Net-Zero Industry Act: Designing Europe’s launchpad for a cleantech investment plan

    As the world enters a new era of cleantech competition, policymakers must confront two key policy questions – regulation and investment. The Net Zero Industry Act is Europe’s response to the former. Yet key concerns around permitting, sectoral targets and the scope of the Act will need to be addressed if it is to be effective, argue Thomas Pellerin-Carlin and Ciarán Humphreys in this blog post.
