kWh Analytics maintains a proprietary database covering more than 300,000 renewable energy projects and associated loss data, which it uses to model risk and underwrite insurance for clean energy assets. This dataset supports underwriting that rewards resiliency measures taken by project owners.
The company has received multiple U.S. Department of Energy awards and works with A-rated carriers as a managing general agent. Its annual Solar Risk Assessment and related research are widely used across the renewable energy financing industry.

The renewable energy risk profile is shifting as natural catastrophes, resource volatility, and changing market dynamics alter the economics of solar, wind, and storage projects. Insurers and lenders increasingly treat insurance as a management tool for renewable portfolios rather than a compliance cost.
Beazley has described the energy transition as a significant growth opportunity for specialty insurance, with investment in the transition projected to reach multiple trillions of dollars over the next decade. Grid dependence on renewables continues to deepen as solar remains the fastest-growing renewable source.

kWh Analytics offers three buyer-facing solution families: property insurance covering physical damage for solar, wind, and battery storage assets; performance insurance including the Solar Revenue Put and Wind Proxy Hedge; and data intelligence services built on the HelioStats platform.
The HelioStats platform parses and standardizes operational documents for investors and lenders, combining machine learning with industry taxonomies to make portfolio data comparable. Property insurance programs provide capacity up to $100 million per location, backed by the company's loss database.
