Clear Climate Scores for Confident ESG Decisions
ESG Climate Risk Scoring
Quantify Climate Risk with a Single, Actionable Score
AI-Powered ESG Climate Risk Scoring for Businesses, Assets, & Investment Portfolios
Plutas converts complex climate data into AI-powered ESG climate risk scores, helping organisations measure, compare, and manage climate exposure across assets, suppliers, borrowers, and investments.
Climate Risks Included in Our Scoring Models
Climate risk scoring transforms complex climate and weather data into clear, measurable indicators of exposure and vulnerability. Our scoring models evaluate the intensity, frequency, and potential impact of key climate hazards across assets, operations, and locations.
By quantifying risks from rainfall variability, heatwaves, coldwaves, and cyclones, organizations can improve decision-making, prioritize risk mitigation efforts, and build stronger climate resilience.
Rainfall Risk Scoring
Measure exposure to flooding, rainfall variability, and water-related climate risks.
Cyclone Risk Scoring
Assess exposure to cyclones, severe storms, high winds, and climate disruptions.
Heatwave Risk Scoring
Assess vulnerability to heatwaves, temperature extremes, and operational heat stress.
Coldwave Risk Scoring
Evaluate exposure to extreme cold, frost events, and weather-related disruptions.
Why ESG Climate Risk Scoring Matters
Investors, regulators, lenders, insurers, and stakeholders increasingly expect organisations to understand and manage climate-related risks. Without measurable climate intelligence, organisations may struggle to compare risks across assets, prioritise resilience investments, assess climate exposure within portfolios, support ESG reporting requirements, and monitor changing climate vulnerabilities.
Climate risk scoring simplifies complex climate datasets into consistent metrics that support decision-making.
Traditional ESG Assessment | ESG Climate Risk Scoring |
|---|---|
Policy-focused evaluation | Physical climate risk visibility |
Qualitative assessments | Quantitative risk metrics |
Broad sustainability reviews | Asset-level climate analysis |
Limited geographic insights | Hyperlocal climate intelligence |
Static reporting | Dynamic climate monitoring |
Difficult risk comparison | Standardised scoring framework |
Climate scores help organisations move from subjective assessments to measurable climate intelligence.

FAQs
Frequently asked questions
Climate risk scores provide a consistent way to compare exposure across assets, sectors, and geographies. This helps investors identify vulnerabilities, evaluate resilience characteristics, and incorporate climate considerations into portfolio construction and long-term investment strategies.
Yes. Climate risk scores can provide additional insights into asset exposure, geographic vulnerabilities, and hazard concentrations. This information may support underwriting assessments, portfolio monitoring, and climate-related risk management activities.
Yes. Climate scoring can help identify locations and assets with elevated exposure to specific hazards. These insights can inform discussions around weather triggers, coverage priorities, and broader climate resilience strategies.
A standardised score simplifies large volumes of climate information into a consistent metric. This makes it easier to compare risks, prioritise actions, communicate findings, and support informed decisions across multiple stakeholders.
What is ESG Climate Risk Scoring?
ESG Climate Risk Scoring is the process of evaluating and quantifying an organisation's exposure to climate-related risks using environmental, geographic, operational, and climate data.
Traditional ESG assessments often focus on policies, disclosures, and sustainability commitments. Climate risk scoring adds a physical risk dimension by measuring exposure to hazards such as extreme rainfall, floods, droughts, heatwaves, and cyclones. The output is a standardised climate risk score that helps organisations understand, benchmark, and monitor climate vulnerability across assets and portfolios.
Rather than reviewing thousands of climate data points individually, decision-makers receive a clear and consistent measure of climate risk.

Better Risk Protection
The Technology Behind Our Climate Scoring Platform
Plutas combines AI-powered analytics, climate science, geospatial intelligence, and risk modeling to generate ESG climate risk scores for businesses and portfolios. The platform is live across India and can be deployed in any country where climate risk intelligence is needed.
It analyses more than 30 years of weather observations, climate hazard datasets, satellite-derived environmental information, geographic risk layers, climate projections, and asset-level location intelligence to translate complex climate data into consistent, comparable scores.
This creates a standardised view of physical climate exposure across organisations, assets, and portfolios that supports ESG reporting, investment decisions, and regulatory disclosure.

How It Works
How ESG Climate Risk Scoring Works
01
Collect Asset and Location Information
Climate risk scores can be generated for corporate facilities, real estate portfolios, manufacturing plants, infrastructure projects, agricultural operations, and investment portfolios. Assessments can be performed at the asset or portfolio level.
02
Analyse Climate and ESG Risk Factors
Plutas combines 30+ years of weather data, climate hazard maps, GIS intelligence, future climate projections, physical risk models, and asset-level location data to evaluate climate exposure across multiple risk dimensions.
03
Generate ESG Climate Risk Scores
The platform produces climate risk scores, hazard-specific scores, portfolio risk details, asset vulnerability indicators, geographic exposure analysis, and climate benchmarking insights. This enables organisations to prioritise risk management actions.
