Prologis Cajamar II is a logistics facility facing High composite water risk (score 3.33) in the Tietê watershed while sitting on an already low-carbon and rapidly decarbonising Brazilian grid.

Today

Operating in Cajamar, São Paulo within the Tietê watershed, the facility currently carries a High overall water risk score (3.33, 60-75% band), with Medium-High baseline water stress (score 2.47, 20-40%), a notably high untreated wastewater score (2.81), and elevated drought score (2.87), while riverine flood risk is moderate (1.54) and coastal flood risk is zero given its inland location. As a logistics/distribution asset, the dominant impact channel is Scope 2 GHG via grid electricity: Brazil's observed 2025 grid intensity is 109.95 gCO2/kWh (Ember), already well below global averages, meaning this site's carbon impact intensity is comparatively low today even as its water-related physical exposure is the more material risk driver. No flow-level data (water withdrawal, energy consumption volumes) is provided, limiting quantification of absolute dependency magnitude.

Near-term · 2030

Grid intensity is the clearest near-term signal: IEA WEO 2024 STEPS projects Brazil's grid falling to 70 gCO2/kWh by 2030, more than a one-third reduction from the 2025 observed value, which will mechanically lower Scope 2 intensity for this energy-dependent facility even without on-site intervention. Water-side horizon data (wd_future_score, ws_future_score, labels for 2030/2050/2080) are all null, so no forward view exists on whether Medium-High baseline water stress (20-40%) or High overall water risk will intensify or ease by 2030; this is a data gap rather than a benign signal given the site's already-elevated drought and untreated wastewater sub-scores."

Long-term · 2050+

By 2050 Brazil's grid is expected to reach 40 gCO2/kWh under IEA STEPS, reinforcing Brazil's structural advantage as a low-carbon operating geography and likely rendering Scope 2 immaterial for this site's long-run footprint. The residual risk profile is therefore overwhelmingly physical and water-related rather than transition-related, but the dataset provides no 2050/2080 water stress or demand labels, leaving the long-term trajectory of Tietê basin stress, drought frequency, and wastewater treatment adequacy unquantified. Absent updated Aqueduct-style projections, decision-makers should treat current High water risk and drought scores as a floor, not a ceiling, for 2050+ planning.

Call-outs
RISK
High overall water risk
The site's composite water risk score of 3.33 sits in the High band (60-75%), driven by elevated drought (2.87) and untreated wastewater (2.81) sub-scores in the Tietê watershed.
WATCH
No forward water horizons
2030/2050/2080 water demand and stress projections are null in the dataset, so the trajectory of baseline water stress for this Cajamar site cannot be quantified and should be requested from Prologis or WRI Aqueduct directly.
OPPORTUNITY
Brazil grid decarbonising fast
Grid emissions intensity is projected to fall from an observed 109.95 gCO2/kWh (2025, Ember) to 70 by 2030 and 40 by 2050 (IEA WEO 2024 STEPS), sharply reducing Scope 2 exposure for this energy-dependent logistics asset.
WATCH
No throughput or flow data
The flows array is empty, meaning no site-level energy, water withdrawal, or material throughput figures are available to size absolute dependency or impact magnitude.
