Bloomberg Expands Climate Analytics for Low-Carbon Transition

Bloomberg has enhanced its climate solutions suite by introducing advanced analytics to help financial institutions evaluate how companies and portfolios might perform as low-carbon technologies grow. These tools assist investors in identifying opportunities, assessing risks, and aligning investments with net-zero objectives, according to Bloomberg.

Investment Surge in Low-Carbon Technologies

Data from Bloomberg shows global investment in low-carbon technologies increased dramatically from $160 billion in 2009 to $2.1 trillion in 2024. Investment in renewable energy projects alone hit a record $386 billion in the first half of 2025, marking a 10% year-on-year increase.

Enhanced Transition Risk Framework

Traditional models often focused on carbon pricing mechanisms like taxes or emissions fees. Bloomberg’s new framework goes further, integrating carbon analytics with detailed assessments of how companies are affected by market changes, technological advances, and policy shifts.

Comprehensive Data Coverage

The dataset covers companies that account for 96% of global market capitalization. It complements Bloomberg’s existing analytics on transition revenue-at-risk, carbon forecasts, and transition credibility scores.

Bloomberg shared: "The tools enable investors to identify opportunities, evaluate risks, and align portfolios with their net-zero goals."

Author's summary: Bloomberg’s expanded climate analytics offer financial institutions deep insights into risks and opportunities, supporting smarter investment decisions in the accelerating low-carbon transition.
