Climate risk is a capital-allocation question. 51 Delta Intelligence answers it.
Climate exposure is already reaching insurance premiums, energy costs, supply chains and the cost of capital. 51 Delta shows which assets and actions protect value, which create it, and ranks your investment plan by your financial priorities.
Built on ISSB (IFRS S2). Ready for UK SRS and CSRD.
Capgemini surveyed 701 companies with revenue over $1bn:
Risk you haven’t priced can’t go into a forecast, a capital plan or a lender conversation. Delta prices it.
And the clock is running: UK SRS becomes mandatory for certain listed companies from January 2027[2].
An example based on a real incident.
A 200-room city-centre hotel sits in an urban heat island, with its own substation, standby generator and changeover switch in a basement plant room. Heat and flood exposure each look moderate on their own, but both fall on the same thing: the hotel’s power supply.
During a heatwave the cooling plant runs at full load for days, and the hotel’s substation, working hard in a hot basement, overheats and trips. The thunderstorm that breaks the heat then floods the same plant room, so the standby generator can’t take over. With no power or cooling, the hotel evacuates its guests and closes for nine days.
| Lost room and food and beverage revenue, 9 days | £360,000 |
| Guest relocation, refunds and compensation | £70,000 |
| Substation transformer, standby generator and changeover switch replaced | £450,000 |
| Spoiled food and drink stock | £25,000 |
| Cost of one event | £905,000 |
Before any rise in insurance premium at renewal.
| Move the standby generator and changeover switch above flood level | £180,000 |
| Flood barriers and pumped sump for the basement | £60,000 |
| Cut peak cooling load: shading, reflective roof, chiller controls | £120,000 |
| Total | £360,000 |
Less than 40% of the cost of a single event. The cooling measures also cut the peak load on the substation, and energy costs and carbon every year.
51 Delta assesses every site for heat and flood exposure and checks where critical plant sits, so a shared weak point like this one is found and priced before the event.
No 200-page risk report. One verdict per asset, with the numbers behind it.
Decarbonise where the payback is strongest.
Build resilience where value is at risk.
Keep it under review as scenarios shift.
High risk, short lease? Plan your way out.
Every action comes with cost, carbon, payback and value protected attached.
Delta brings physical, transition, supply chain and investment data into a single model, so climate spend competes fairly with every other demand on capital.
Flood, heat, coastal and drought exposure for every asset, turned into an annual value at risk you can compare to an insurance premium.
Carbon pricing, efficiency regulation and ISSB, UK SRS and CSRD liabilities, calculated asset by asset, with upcoming rules flagged early.
Key suppliers scored for disruption risk and financial exposure, so you can diversify or build resilience before a disruption decides for you.
Every action costed by capex, savings, payback and ROI, then ranked across the whole portfolio.
You set the priorities. Your finance team weights cost, carbon and risk. Delta ranks every action to match.
The 51 Delta Intelligence Strategy puts everything your board, lenders and auditors need in one document:
Ready for board papers, lender submissions, auditor packs and ISSB (IFRS S2), UK SRS or CSRD disclosures.
Your whole portfolio modelled, the full strategy delivered and your board briefed. The usual starting point.
Every capex proposal priced for climate exposure before it’s approved.
As scenarios, hazard data and your portfolio change, Delta re-prices and flags what’s moved.
Know where capex earns the most, and where climate is quietly eroding value.
Physical, transition and supply chain risk on one financial footing, ready for your risk register.
Disclosure-ready outputs aligned to NGFS and SBTi, with the full audit trail attached.
A walkthrough on your sites, your scenarios, your numbers. No pre-work required.
