Imagine trying to build a giant sea wall or green roof but the bank won't lend you money because they don't understand the risk. This project creates a bridge between city planners and investors by using digital simulations to prove a project will actually work. It's like a high-tech rehearsal that makes green projects safe enough for banks to fund.
Public authorities often have climate adaptation plans but cannot secure private funding because the projects aren't 'bankable' or lack proven financial models.
AI-based business model generators, digital twins for climate simulation, and a methodology for creating bankable investment schemes.
If you are a financial institution dealing with high-risk green loans — this project developed bankable solutions and AI-based business models that reduce uncertainty. This allows you to deploy capital into climate projects with clearer value propositions and financial elements.
If you are an insurer dealing with unpredictable climate damage costs — this project developed digital twins and dashboards for ex-ante simulation. This helps you price innovative insurance products based on simulated climate data.
If you are a city developer dealing with a lack of funding for adaptation measures — this project developed a methodology to make projects bankable. This enables you to attract private investment for projects in cities like Birmingham, Lisbon, or Kielce.
Based on available project data, specific pricing or cost details for the resulting tools are not provided.
Yes, the project tests the methodology in 3 Front Runner Cities and plans replication in another 4 case studies, including the Region of Alentejo and cities like Aarhus.
The project uses AI tools to identify the best exploitation form, which may include licensing of products/services, patenting, or the creation of spin-offs.
The project runs from 2025-06-01 to 2029-05-31.
It uses digital twins and dashboards to perform simulations and assessments using data and collective intelligence.
The consortium is heavily weighted toward implementation and finance, featuring 28 partners across 12 countries. With 8 industry partners and 7 SMEs (a 29% industry ratio) and 15 'Other' organizations (likely public authorities and financial bodies), the group is structured to move from theory to bankable reality rather than pure academic research.
