Aon Launches $2.5B Insurance Program for Gas Power Projects
Aon's new Power Lifecycle Program covers construction and operations for gas plants serving utility and digital infrastructure clients.
Aon plc, the Dublin-headquartered global professional services firm listed on the New York Stock Exchange, has introduced a multiline insurance solution designed specifically for conventional gas power projects, the company announced Sept. 28, 2026. The Power Lifecycle Program offers coverage of up to $2.5 billion and targets the growing intersection of energy infrastructure and digital demand.
The program spans both the construction and operational phases of gas power facilities, providing clients a consolidated risk-transfer solution across a project's full lifespan. Aon is positioning the offering for utility companies and digital infrastructure operators — a client base under mounting pressure to secure reliable baseload power as data center expansion accelerates across the United States.
