This report provides the most comprehensive picture yet of how climate hazards threaten the critical infrastructure that powers our digital economy. As demand for data centre capacity accelerates, understanding these risks is essential for building resilience into the backbone of modern life.

This white-paper proposes a breakthrough approach to adaptation reporting: the P-FIVE framework. The P-FIVE model focuses on what matters most — the performance outcomes of adaptation measures — enabling machine-readable, scalable reporting that can help companies demonstrate resilience and allows stakeholders to accurately assess and compare physical climate risk.

The 2024 XDI APAC REIT Physical Climate Risk Report analyses 2,134 assets held by the 20 largest (by market capitalisation) REITs in Japan, Australia, Singapore and Hong Kong to provide a snapshot of climate change risks to global real estate investments. It also ranks these 20 REITs - who have a combined market capitalisation value of more than US$142 billion - according to their physical climate risk.

The XDI Gross Domestic Climate Risk dataset is a direct response to demand from investors for data on sub-sovereign and regional risk. The capability and results provide a new level of detail and sophistication in physical climate risk analysis that can be used to consider the effect of climate change extreme weather on sovereign, sub-sovereign and corporate debt, and builds on growing concern about these issues raised by the global finance sector.

XDI has analysed over 200,000 hospitals around the world for risk of damage from 6 different climate change hazards from 1990 until the end of the century. The risk arising from two different emissions scenarios (i) RCP 8.5 (around 4.3 ºC) and RCP 2.6 (1.8 ºC or under) was compared. The analysis was published ahead of the inaugural Health Day at the COP28 UN Climate Conference.
