Munich Re’s offshore EPC cover insurance mitigates contractual warranties for offshore wind contractors (EPC & T&I), manufacturers and suppliers after project hand-over
Transfer individual project-related risks
Technical challenges, adverse weather conditions as well as high investment and operating costs are unsettling both contractors and investors.
Our solution: insurance for individual, project-related risks targeted at contractors (EPC/T&I), manufacturers and suppliers in the offshore wind industry.
During the construction and operating phases, wind park projects are generally covered against physical damage, accidents and natural hazards. There are several traditional insurance products available for this, but our solutions go further: we offer contractors (EPC/T&I), manufacturers and suppliers our support in dealing with losses that can have a serious impact on the performance of their businesses. Our EPC product provides protection in case of serial losses as well as large single losses relating to the warranty obligations of contractors (EPC/T&I), manufacturers and suppliers.
Our long-standing experience of wind power projects, weather and environment assessment expertise, capacity, technical knowledge and risk-structuring excellence enables us to design tailor-made solutions, providing piece of mind for worst-case scenarios.
We have collaborated closely with players in the offshore wind area – such as energy producers, investors, developers, contractors, suppliers and lenders to identify coverage gaps that may cause financial stress to wind projects and their value chain.
Green Tech Solutions pools expert know-how in the field of renewable energies. We offer innovative performance guarantee insurances for wind, solar, hydrogen and other green technologies.
