Making climate risk decision-ready for KSA infrastructure
A leading KSA infrastructure developer needed to turn climate commitments into better business decisions across its regional Master Plan. Working with dss+, the organisation identified seven material climate risks, embedded them into Enterprise Risk Management and established clear, decision-useful reporting aligned with recognised frameworks. The result was a practical basis for prioritising mitigation, strengthening resilience and advancing its position as a leading PIF portfolio company in climate reporting and mitigation strategy.
The challenge
In alignment with the Kingdom's net-zero commitments, the client needed a comprehensive Climate Transition Plan, quantifying physical and transition risks and opportunities via scenario analysis, plus a phased, multi-year reporting approach.
The approach
dss+ executed the project through three core workstreams, delivering lasting resilience.
Climate Change Risk Assessment
Evaluated exposure and vulnerability across emission scenarios and integrated climate risks into Enterprise Risk Management.
Climate Transition Plan
Developed a Climate Transition Framework including strategic objectives, priorities and action plans across the development timeline.
Phased, Multi-Year Climate Reporting
Tailored disclosures aligned with TCFD and TPT frameworks.
Impact on the ground
- 7 material climate risks identified.
- Climate risks embedded in Enterprise Risk Management.
- Clear, decision-useful climate disclosures established.
The inflection point
“This project positions us as a leading PIF portfolio company in terms of climate reporting and developing mitigation strategies.”
