According to Reuters, renewably produced electricity is becoming more competitive. It is already, in many cases, more cost efficient and environmentally sound for businesses to start adding renewables into their public offerings. As things continue to evolve in the utilities and renewables space, more companies are transitioning to sustainable energy. With the continued expansion in the development of windfarms, deployment of wind turbines and installation of solar panels, there is a need for qualified contractors and suppliers to perform these tasks.

Workers performing these types of jobs are exposed to standard risks in the workplace as well as new technologies and hazards. According to Ask EHS, in the solar industry, health and safety risks affect the entire lifecycle of every plant – from design and planning, manufacturing, transportation, installation, integration with the infrastructure, dismantling and disposal/recycling. With these hazards, the need for a standardized process for managing contractors is of utmost importance.

With this growth, and a demand for managing contractors in a sustainable way, eighteen (18) organizations in the Utilities and Renewables space subscribed to ISNetworld® in 2022 alone. With their subscription, they now receive tools to track contractor safety and process compliance, measure hours worked and time spent onsite, and benchmarking and best practice insights to improve their contractor performance metrics.
