Protecting the Infrastructure Behind the Cloud
As global reliance on digital services continues to grow, data centres play a critical role in supporting everything from banking and healthcare to logistics and entertainment. At W Denis, we understand the unique and evolving risks that data centres face – and we work with clients worldwide to develop bespoke insurance solutions that keep them operational, compliant, and protected.
W Denis Group has launched a new specialist division focused exclusively on insuring data centres and their integrated power generation infrastructure, delivering comprehensive, competitively priced solutions backed by multi-billion capacity on a global basis.
W Denis’s new division is unique in the insurance market by offering dedicated cover not only for data centre buildings, plant and technology, but also for the substantial electricity generation assets, such as traditional CHP through to modern Clean/Green Tech Power – BESS, solar, wind and hybrid systems, which provide critical resilience and independence from grid failures.
Early Loss Control Advice
By drawing on real-world claims experience, W Denis can flag potential issues early in the design of data centres – from overheating and power outages to water leaks – helping teams build in effective safeguards from the outset. This strengthens resilience, streamlines insurer approval and reduces the likelihood of costly setbacks later on.
End-to-End Cover for Critical Digital Infrastructure
Data centres are complex, capital-intensive environments. Whether you’re a developer, operator, investor, or tenant, the risks you face will evolve at each stage of the project.
