Founded in 2014, Lockton Global Energy is a specialty business focused on the Oil, Gas, Power and Renewables businesses. It has grown significantly over the past 10 years to include over 300 energy specialists across 35 countries, with over USD1.1bn of premium placed across our Energy divisions.
Lockton Power
Lockton’s specialist power generation team provides insurance solutions for a range of operational risks that owners of power plants regularly face. This capital-intensive sector faces increasing pressure from evolving electricity market demand patterns and, as a result, firms require insurance solutions that can evolve alongside them.
The rise of renewables and the erosion of traditional base load markets have brought new participants into the power generation space. These require reliable insurance risk transfer solutions that respond to the needs of both equity investors and finance parties. With close market proximity and depth of experience, Lockton is uniquely placed to offer unparalleled risk advice and cost-effective, reliable cover that responds the moment clients’ need it.
