Renewables: Health, Safety and Sustainability
Making renewable energy safe and sustainable
EI LIVE Free Webinar | What does process safety mean for the renewables industry?
11 May 2021, 11:00-12:35 BST
Registration closes at 17:00 BST on 10 May 2021.
The use and scalability of renewable energy is fully dependent on their ability to be harnessed safely and securely. During this webinar we will focus on addressing process safety management and the approaches to manage hazards and how to develop plant systems and procedures to prevent harm. We will aim to discuss and share solutions on:
- Understanding what exactly ‘process safety’ means for the renewable sector, and why it is important
- Driving and coordinating significant business change – How can leaders make process safety an integral part of everyone’s role and leading an operational transformation programme
- Providing access to proven frameworks and tool kits
- Discussing methodology and building capability to improve safety
- Sharing lessons to improve competence and capability in process safety
- Developing key indicators and dashboard:
- Understanding hazards and creating barriers
- Classification of incidents
- Identifying key performance indicators
- Approaches to monitoring
- Review and governance process – considering a cascading up approach
Adapting | Accelerating | Integrating
A wide range of emerging energy technologies are expected to play an important role in reshaping the way we satisfy our energy requirements. The extent to which they do so, however, will depend fundamentally on their ability to be harnessed safely, securely and sustainably.
Renewables are key to the energy mix of the future, and companies (large and small) will need to work hard to ensure the generation, storage and use of renewable energy is safe, secure, and sustainable. It is important that we understand and manage the risks associated with health, safety, and sustainability, and take opportunities to learn from others.
Sound health, safety and sustainability performance will be vital to the technologies’ ability to gain the confidence of the public, investors and wider industry. As such, this conference will be delivered in the context of the following themes:
- Adapting: Designing strategies that are flexible and can evolve quickly in response to anticipated changes in the market and operations
- Accelerating: Increasing capacity and facilitating integration into a country’s infrastructure in a safe, responsible and sustainable way
- Integrating: Advancing system design, planning and operations in a safe, responsible and sustainable way
During this conference, we will be sharing international good practices and cross-sectoral learning, to ensure we manage and control our hazards safely and responsibly and protect our planet by delivering a more sustainable energy system. This conference will aim to:
- Share insights that improve health and safety and delivering a more sustainable energy system
- Demonstrate case studies on how to become safer, manage health and wellbeing
- Demonstrate case studies on how to deliver sustainability throughout the project lifecycle
- Raise awareness of global good practice and standards within the renewable sector
- Bring the renewable energy community together
- Share cross-sectoral learning
- Provide opportunities to network and engage
