Climate Risk Intelligence for Infrastructure Digital Twins™

Future-proofing Assets Today for Tomorrow’s Climate Extremes™

Climate Risk Intelligence Solutions

ClimaTwin® empowers infrastructure stakeholders
to mitigate climate risks and assess adaptation actions
across the total asset lifecycle

Aggregate

Federate infrastructure datasets
with disparate climate models

Visualize

Simulate designs and identify vulnerabilities to weather variables

Analyze

Project asset performance under
acute and chronic climate hazards

Public & Private Asset Vulnerabilities to Extreme Weather

Future asset interruption, damage, destruction,
and other loss as a result of exposure to climate hazards

Airports

Hazards: hurricanes, storms, typhoons, sea-level rise, tidal flooding, heat

Risks: airplane service interruption from only tenths of an inch of water

Rail

Hazards: riverine and pluvial flooding, hurricanes, storms, typhoons

Risks: train service interruption and disruption to signal assets

Roads

Hazards: riverine and pluvial flooding, hurricanes, storms, typhoons

Risks: 30% speed limitations and increased travel time in flooded cities

Seaports

Hazards: hurricanes, storms, typhoons, sea-level rise, tidal flooding

Risks: destruction of a large percentage of assets and cargo

Wireless Infrastructure

Hazards: hurricanes, storms, typhoons, tornadoes and other wind

Risks: service degradation or interruption due to downed cell towers

Thermonuclear Power Plants

Hazards: hurricanes, storms, typhoons, sea-level rise, tidal flooding

Risks: service interruption and cooling risk during water shortage

Wind Power Plants

Hazards: hurricanes, storms, typhoons, riverine and pluvial flooding

Risks: service interruption and component damage from thunderstorms

Solar Power Plants

Hazards: heat (air and water), riverine and pluvial flooding

Risks: reduction in efficiency, 0.1–0.5% loss per 2°F increase

Hydroelectric Plants

Hazards: riverine and pluvial flooding, drought

Risks: service interruption due to extreme precipitation or none

Transmission Lines

Hazards: hurricanes, storms, typhoons, wildfire

Risks: increased load due to a/c use and reduced grid efficiency

Substations

Hazards: wildfire, sea-level rise, tidal flooding, riverine and pluvial flooding

Risks: reduced grid efficiency and damage or destruction from fire

Wastewater Treatment Systems

Hazards: hurricanes, storms, typhoons, sea-level rise, tidal flooding

Risks: release of billions of gallons of sewage, contaminating freshwater

Challenges Connecting Infrastructure and Climate Data

Infrastructure data are siloed in proprietary repositories.

Climate data are locked in scientific formats,
limited by coarse resolution and poor parametrization.

By connecting complex climate models and infrastructure digital twins, ClimaTwin® enables stakeholders to aggregate, visualize, and analyze disparate datasets, revealing site-specific insights at a hyper-local scale.

Adaptation Actions
Generate Significant Returns

Benefits to owner-operators of near-term positive returns and lifetime cost-avoidance by mitigating climate risks to systems, services, and societies

5-10x ROI

Return on investment over
the cost of adaptation investment

Save Lives

Prevent or reduce damages
from today’s climate hazards

$50-$100 B

1-2% of the current $5 trillion
global infrastructure spend per year

Climate Change
Demands New Requirements

Future climate uncertainty demands change
to the performance requirements of infrastructure assets

Economy

Life-cycle cost analysis (LCCA)
in support of investment decisions

Durability

Resistance to performance
degradation during full-service life

Safety

Judgment of risk tolerances
for assets, systems, and processes

Serviceability

State of assets, systems, and components
under normal operations

Constructability

Application of construction knowledge
during pre-construction phases

Sustainability

Economic, environmental, & social conditions to enhance quality of life
