BasePower announces that the first of its on-site energy centres has been certified with a double suite of ISO standards. The 2.7MW energy centre, developed, built and operated by BasePower, is located on the site of a large manufacturer of convenience foods.

The BasePower energy centre has been accredited with ISO 14001, the Environmental Management Certification, and ISO 45001 for Occupational Health and Safety, covering the operation and management of the Combined Heat and Power (CHP) scheme. This set of procedures will serve to minimise health and safety risks to employees and contractors, and measure the project’s environmental performance.

BasePower intends to roll out ISO certification to its entire portfolio of energy centres across the UK in order to guarantee quality and reliability of management controls across key operational areas.

Dave Holden, Operations Manager, BasePower said:
“As a long term, trusted energy partner to blue-chip industrial manufacturers, a core part of our strategy is to work to internationally recognised ISO standards. By applying responsible corporate governance throughout our fleet of energy centres this poses the least environmental risk and provides an operational framework that is safe for all.”
