The report examines how climate adaptation can create economic opportunities for the UK while helping manage the impacts of climate change. The report explores growing global demand for adaptation-related goods and services and the potential for UK businesses to compete in these emerging markets.
Drawing on market analysis, stakeholder engagement and an assessment of UK capabilities in adaptation goods, services, and technologies, the report estimates the scale of the opportunity, identifies areas where the UK has competitive strengths, and examines the export potential of UK adaptation solutions.
The report also considers the barriers to growth in adaptation markets and highlights actions that could help unlock investment, innovation and international opportunities while supporting a more climate-resilient UK economy.
