In this episode of IB Talk, Insurance Business editor Gia Snape sits down with Howden US' Jared Dubrowski to unpack a growing blind spot in the global push toward sustainability: the hidden risks embedded in green energy technologies. As investment pours into solar, wind and battery storage, these assets are widely seen as environmentally friendly alternatives to carbon-based energy. But Dubrowski challenges that assumption, pointing to a critical issue often overlooked by project owners and insurers alike—the full lifecycle of these technologies. From lithium-ion battery fires to the disposal of aging solar panels, the conversation explores how environmental exposures don’t end when energy is generated. Instead, they shift to end-of-life risks, including hazardous materials, landfill liability, and the long-tail impact of improper disposal.
Aon’s Daniel Ocampo explains how sustainability, global risks and energy transition are reshaping insurance capacity, pricing and strategy for Canadian businesses today
