Due to its management focused on continuous improvement in environmental matters, Iberdrola México obtained ISO 14001:2015 certification for its ten renewable energy plants in Mexico (7 wind farms and 3 photovoltaic plants), in its Operation and Maintenance area, of the Spanish Association for Standardization and Certification (AENOR). With this recognition, the energy company certified the efficiency and good environmental practices of the management of its renewable plants, which today have an installed capacity of more than 1,160 megawatts (MW) in Mexico. “This certification by AENOR is the result of our commitment to protecting the environment and the high quality standards with which we operate our renewable plants. For this reason, we always seek the continuous improvement of our processes to contribute to the decarbonization of the industry, aligned with the Sustainable Development Goals (SDG) of the United Nations,” said the CEO of Iberdrola México, Enrique Alba.
In Iberdrola México achieved AENOR certification for the energy company's four wind farms in Juchitán de Zaragoza (Oaxaca). In 2020, two photovoltaic plants were accredited and in 2022 the ISO 14001:2015 certification Saint Vincent and the Grenadines Email List process was completed in the four remaining renewable generation plants. This recognition is valid for three years, which can be renewed with new audits. “The AENOR certificate adds more confidence to the work that Iberdrola México carries out to protect the environment and fight against climate change. Our seal is a guarantee of the company's values to all its stakeholders." Director General of AENOR Mexico & Latam North, Miguel Montesino. Among other requirements, Iberdrola México achieved this certificate in the area of Renewables thanks to its environmental policy, which sets objectives and goals in this area, and after testing the competence and training of its staff. The company was already certified with ISO 14001:2015 in the Generation area (combined cycle and cogeneration plants), and in 2022 it achieved the same recognition for wind and photovoltaic park projects.
In addition, the Renewables area obtained the certification of three photovoltaic and two wind plants in Occupational Health and Safety, in accordance with ISO 45001:2018, and recertified the remaining five wind farms, in a sample of Iberdrola México's commitment to the highest standards in this matter, by having all its facilities under this international standard that seeks to improve safety levels in the workplace and reduce operational incidents. “We are proud to achieve these certificates because they give certainty to our clients about the business excellence with which Iberdrola México works in its commitment to renewable energies,” highlighted the director of the Renewable Business at Iberdrola México, Luis Estrada. The international standard ISO 14001 was born out of the need to have a universal indicator to evaluate an organization's efforts to achieve reliable and adequate environmental protection. The standards included in ISO 14001 establish tools and systems focused on production processes within a company or organization, and the effects or externalities that arise from these to the environment, thus helping to reduce environmental risks.
