Buildings and infrastructure owners across the public and private sectors will now be able to benefit from Climate X’s industry-leading climate risk analytics software platform, Spectra, alongside Equans’ expertise in facilities management, engineering and construction. The partnership will help organisations to better understand the impact of climate-related events on properties and infrastructure - enabling them to keep people, operations and buildings safe.

Climate change is causing the UK to experience extreme weather events more frequently, and this is expected to worsen even under low emissions scenarios. Adapting buildings and infrastructure to the effects of climate change is becoming a critical priority for UK organisations alongside the imperative to decarbonise. 

Equans is a market leader in this growing field, and is well positioned to help customers across the built environment to address this challenge, supported by its breadth of capabilities from carbon consulting to sustainable facilities management, digital and energy services, and construction. The partnership with Climate X strengthens this offer by providing customers with insights on climate risk and adaptation solutions as part of Equans’ expertise in managing buildings and infrastructure.

James Graham, Divisional CEO of Digital & Energy Services at Equans UK & Ireland, commented: “We are pleased to be working with Climate X moving forwards. This partnership will be transformative in helping organisations recognise the risk of climate change, adapt to it, and futureproof their buildings. Combining Equans' market presence and delivery expertise with Climate X's advanced analytics software will unlock detailed insights to support the climate resilience of our customers’ estates across a broad range of UK sectors.”

Lukky Ahmed, CEO and co-founder of Climate X, commented: “We are thrilled to partner with Equans to advance our shared mission of empowering clients to build a more resilient and sustainable built environment. By combining Equans' extensive expertise in decarbonization and project delivery with Climate X's cutting-edge climate risk analytics, we will transform climate-related financial impacts into actionable, positive ROI adaptation measures. Together, we aim to safeguard assets, businesses, and communities against the increasing threats of climate change, contributing significantly to a more resilient future.”
