Risk Insurance for Breakthrough Technologies
Innovation does not come without risk, but that shouldn’t stop the best innovators from paving the road to the future. At New Energy Risk, we assist in making new technology bankable by helping insure the risks involved with taking revolutionary technologies from development, to deployment and commercial scale.
Our customized insurance products are designed to ensure future financing is minimally dilutive and optimally priced, enabling the most capital efficient path to achieving commercial scale and widespread customer adoption.
New Models for New Technology Risk
Companies transitioning from development stage to commercial deployment greatly benefit from our proven methodology for understanding and insuring technical risk. Typically, they lack extensive long-term performance data, which hinders revolutionary technologies from securing financing, going to market, and achieving mass adoption. Our proprietary, data-driven modeling assesses the uncertainty around performance and reliability, as well as the relevant economics, by outlining realistic outcomes of a project or technology.
Proven Results in Multiple Industries
We have worked across several industries including fuel cells, energy storage and biofuels. View our case studies to learn more.
