Assessing Physical Climate Risks for the European Bank for Reconstruction and Development's Power Generation Project Investment Portfolio
This research paper presents a new method, co-developed by the World Resources Institute (WRI) and the European Bank for Reconstruction and Development (EBRD), to quantify physical climate risks for power generation portfolios. The method utilizes machine-learning techniques and climate science to estimate electricity generation losses across different climate scenarios (RCP 4.5 and RCP 8.5), specifically pilot-testing the approach on EBRD's thermal and hydropower assets.
