Our ESG report
In our latest ESG report for the 2021 and 2022 calendar years (1 January – 31 December) we continue to monitor key areas of focus that matter to the sustainability of our business and our stakeholders. Through this, we are better able to keep track of progress and identify areas for improvement. Our report covers:
At InterGen, we believe that our team is our strongest asset and we are committed to ensuring their safety and wellbeing. Our established safety programme has been built up over 27 years and ensures the safe operation of our facilities in compliance with global best practice, as well as relevant national regulations. We have a dedicated management team responsible for the strategic direction of our Health, Safety, Security and Environment (HSSE).
InterGen is committed to playing its part in the energy transition, by providing flexible power generation that supports renewables deployment. In addition to developing our leading 900MWh Gateway battery storage project, we have a pipeline of five further large scale battery storage projects representing 2.5GW of flexible supply. We are also inesting in an upgrade to our Coryton power station which will increase its efficiency and allow it to take advantage of a blended hydrogen stream as and when available.
However, we also recognise our carbon and non-carbon impact on the environment. Our ESG report is part of our efforts to monitor and reduce these.
Being great neighbours is part of who we are. We are fundamentally connected to each other and the world around us. From national grids and global climate to the everyday world of streets and homes, our connections to the communities we are all a part of give meaning to what we do. Our ESG report outlines our activities in the communities we work and live in 2022.
InterGen continues to work with policymakers, regulators, system operators and industry across the electricity value chain to assess and mitigate risks as they emerge and to ensure stability of the grid. We also have experts ensuring our systems are secure, resilient and can adapt if risks emerge. Our latest ESG sets out our governance frameworks and ethics and our responsible business practices.
Our aim is to enhance our existing ESG efforts, improve transparency and disclosure, to look for more opportunities to drive sustainable solutions and to improve our operational efficiency and productivity.
