Why do natural resources and renewable energy businesses need specialist insurance protection?

Natural resources and renewable energy businesses operate in asset intensive, high value and often remote environments, where a single incident can have significant financial, environmental and reputational consequences.

Specialist insurance protection is essential to address risks across the full project lifecycle. A tailored programme typically brings together property damage and business interruption, construction and erection all risks (including delay in startup), machinery breakdown and marine and transport cover for equipment and timber. We also look at general and environmental liability, professional indemnity for advisers, directors’ and officers’ liability, including ESG related exposures and cyber insurance.

The sector is not immune to people risks and talent shortages, which is why we will always recommend you consider looking at an employee benefits programme tailored to your business.

Together, these protections help safeguard your business – from physical assets and complex contractual and regulatory obligations, to attracting and retaining your people. Putting the right protection in place will support long-term resilience in a complex and rapidly evolving energy landscape.
