What will a changing climate cost your building?

Climate Value at Risk (CVaR)
ClimateFirst factors the impacts of a changing climate into capital cost projections. Current building systems, designed and sized for a different climate, are now susceptible to breakdown and shortened lifespan due to severe and chronic weather conditions. Our Climate Value at Risk (CVaR) analysis of key building systems enables more accurate financial projections and long-term planning.

For this office tower in Miami, Florida, the total unaccounted CVaR is
