Our mission is to protect society from the impacts of climate change through intelligent planning.

High-resolution climate intelligence leads to accurate, asset-level risk models. Accurate models lead to defensible investment plans. Defensible plans lead to regulatory approval. Rhizome turns climate uncertainty into resilience strategies utilities can defend and communities can depend on.

Our team

We combine deep utility expertise, AI technology, and climate science to help utilities build resilient grids that protect communities. If the grid can be 99.9% reliable, we think your partners should be too.
