We are entirely focused on
water risk in 4 industry sectors
SECTOR FOCUS
Technology will help owners/operators in these sectors deal with climate-change-induced water risk
LINEAR ASSETS
Roads, rail, and pipelines face growing water-related risks, including floods, erosion, saltwater intrusion, sedimentation, freeze-thaw cycles, drought-induced soil shifts, groundwater changes, and wildfire-driven hydrological impacts.
COASTAL INFRASTRUCTURE
Ports, harbours, marinas, and coastal assets (constructed and natural) are increasingly at risk due to our changing climate, including; sea level rise, storm surges, saltwater intrusion, algal blooms, and erosion.
F.I.RE.
Finance, Insurance, and Real Estate (aka, the "FIRE" sector) face significant climate-change-induced water related risks over the coming decade, from atmospheric rivers to sea-level rise, and scarcity to harmful algal blooms.
POWER GENERATION
Hydro and thermoelectric power generation are facing increasing water quantity and quality risks in our new climate reality, spanning scarcity and droughts, flooding, and impaired source water.
What about drinking water utilities and agriculture?
While public and private water/wastewater utilities face significant challenges in a changing climate, Mazarine Climate does not invest in companies who have a primary focus on this market. While there are some forward-thinking utilities, many remain bureaucratic and risk-averse, with slow procurement cycles that make it difficult to introduce new solutions. Strict regulations, budget constraints, and a preference for proven technologies further delay adoption, making this sector less suitable for Mazarine Climate’s focus.
Agriculture and aquaculture also face increasing water risks due to climate change, yet farmers and agribusinesses tend to be risk-averse, prioritising proven methods over new technologies. While there are some forward-thiniking farmers, tight profit margins and complex supply chains make adoption of innovative technologies slow, as agricultural customers are cautious about unproven solutions that could impact yields or financial stability.​​
