Introducing our new City Climate Scenarios Service
Anthony Light
Managing Director, City Services
Oxford Economics is excited to announce the launch of our City Climate Scenarios Service, designed to help businesses and governments better understand the local impact of climate mitigation policies.
Our new service offers in-depth insights into the economic outlook for each city and region across Europe, the US and Canada under different climate-related policy scenarios. The impact of these policies on individual cities and regions will vary, reflecting their unique sectoral composition, inter-regional dependencies, and vulnerability to climatic events.
Our comprehensive climate solutions now include the Global Climate Service, Industry Climate Service, Global Sustainability Model, and the latest addition, the City Climate Scenarios Service. Together, these services provide an unparalleled understanding of the economic challenges, opportunities and consequences of climate change and mitigation policies at national, sectoral, city and company levels. At Oxford Economics, we’re committed to providing a holistic range of climate analysis tools, empowering organizations to make informed, locally customized climate-related decisions with confidence.
Key features include:
- Comprehensive databank: historic data and forecasts to 2050 for almost 3,000 cities and regions under our baseline assumptions and five climate-related scenarios.
- Chartbooks: individual quarterly chartbooks for the US, Canada, and Europe outlining the key headline results from each climate scenario.
- Commentary and webinars: climate-related analysis impacting city economies.
- Support from our team of over 40 city and climate specialists.
How we help:
- Identify big-picture opportunities and risks. Translate and quantify how climate change and the associated mitigation policies affect cities and local economies.
- Inform your strategy with local-level climate risk forecasts. Build climate considerations into your planning, risk assessments, and location decisions, and make strategic decisions that align with your goals and values.
- Access full economist support. Our team of over 40 city and climate economists offers support to clients to answer questions about our data and forecasts.
