We are pleased to confirm that our F-Gas company certificate has been renewed for another three years. This certification is crucial for our BESS repair and maintenance activities. It allows us to install, service, and decommission HVAC systems that ensure optimal battery performance – minimising downtime and promoting efficient site operations.

Brent Teirney leads the team responsible for commissioning and maintaining BESS fire safety systems across all our sites. Since joining the company, Brent has helped strengthen our in-house BESS fire systems expertise. He’s also involved in the design and Factory Acceptance Testing of new installations to confirm they comply with UK fire standards before they’re shipped here.

Once again, we've secured REFCOM F-Gas certification – reinforcing our position as a market leader in safe, compliant HVAC and fire safety system management across energy storage sites. Huge credit to Chris Brown and the team for delivering a smooth audit and driving smarter, more efficient operations through best-in-class tools.

Around this time last year, we welcomed our first industry placement—Ryan Allen, a T-Level 3 Mechanical Engineering student from Middlesbrough College.

Big thanks to Michelle Dorsi and Jade Kelly, Ryan's placement coordinators, for sharing their insights and helping us produce this blog.
