We've just wrapped up Day One of GCube’s European Risk Seminar 2024 in Porto, Portugal! This latest edition of our annual event for leaders in European renewable energy insurance showcases the programme's ongoing evolution, serving as a robust forum for open dialogue about the market's current state. It’s always hard to summarise all of the important conversations taking place throughout the day, but here is a flavour of some of the key talking points: - Our CEO Fraser McLachlan kicked off proceedings with a high-level overview of the state of play in the renewables insurance market, highlighting that “we’ve got to work collectively and collaboratively together to get away from the boom and bust cycle that we’ve all got used to”. - Jose Espinosa of Fotowatio Renewable Ventures (FRV) discussed FRV’s progress in diversifying its portfolio and how “risk managers are here to accelerate business and improve competitive advantage in the right way”. - The ‘Batteries Not Excluded: Getting Comfortable with BESS’ panel included presentations from Tom Harries from NARDAC, Roberto Jimenez from BW ESS, and GCube’s Oliver Litterick who examined the challenges of ensuring a viable insurance proposition for BESS. “Two main challenges we face: lack of data and lack of standardisation”, said Oliver. “We’re seeing new products every 3 years, and people assume batteries aren’t changing”, said Tom. - And finally, Roy Muñoz and Chris Bender led our fireside chat, ‘Better Call Roy’, which dissected some of the most unique and challenging global claims experienced over the past 12 months, including a unique insight on liability for lost production over dusty fruit…. "Are you Papaya-ing my claim!?” Many thanks to all of our speakers. We’re already looking forward to Day Two! #renewable #energy #insurance
