Renewable energy insurance

Our renewable energy team provides coverage for the full life-cycle of onshore and offshore wind farms and solar photovoltaic installations, from procurement to construction to the completed operations.

We write business on a worldwide basis to support our clients who operate all around the world.

Renewable coverage options

We can offer line sizes up to $250m on Company paper or $250m on Lloyd's paper.

We consider ourselves predominantly quota share (re)insurers.

We can write excess of loss layers.

We do not write a book of primary placements but will write primary layers where we are able to write the excess layers as well.

We can write pure excess layers where the risk is within appetite and we are unable to take a line on the primary layer.

We do not write Fac RI primaries for other insurers.

    • Construction all risks with associated marine cargo
    • Delay in start-up including pre-handover loss of revenue
