Aon adds heat and cooling analytics to climate risk platform

Aon has launched an updated version of its Climate Risk Monitor platform, supplementing the tool with heat stress, cooling demand and water stress analytics.

CRM 3.0 seeks to capture how temperature, humidity and exposure can affect businesses and communities, including health outcomes as well as potential economic and productivity impacts of warming.

The updated platform also includes revised drought and water stress analysis, higher-resolution hazard data and new mapping tools designed to support insurers, reinsurers and public sector organisations in risk assessment and planning.

Liz Henderson, head of climate risk advisory for Aon, said: “Heat stress, rising cooling demand and increased water usage are quickly becoming everyday challenges for businesses and communities – affecting people, energy systems and IT infrastructure – especially as more datacentres are built with the increased use of AI. By quantifying these impacts, organisations can better protect uptime, manage costs and build resilience for a hotter, more demanding future.”
