Managing Risk in Energy Transition
The energy transition is naturally leading to the development of a range of new technologies and applications within the energy sector, including; transport and use of hydrogen, carbon capture usage and storage, increasing use of biofuels, wind and wave power generation, and fuel cells and advanced battery technologies.
These newer technologies and approaches can present significant opportunities but also present potential safety, environmental and reputational risks which need to be identified, understood and managed.
ESR Technology, building on our 30 year heritage of major hazards risk assessment for the offshore and onshore energy sector, can help you to identify and manage your risks associated with these new technologies and ensure that your operations continue to remain ALARP.
We are increasingly carrying out studies relevant to emerging technologies, leveraging tried and tested techniques, including;
- Process Hazard Analysis and Quantified risk assessments for CO2 sequestration projects
- Consequence assessments for hydrogen releases
- Syngas production facilities risk assessments
- COMAH Safety Reports for gas storage installations
- Risk assessments for biofuel facilities
- Safety assessments for Lithium Ion battery systems
- Waste to power plant assessments
Our wider engineering capability also carries out bearing studies for Wind Turbines, support to nuclear power plant operators and tribology support to fusion research facilities.
