Wind Farm Discussion Workshop

Yesterday we hosted a workshop for a client.

This is not unusual, workshops are a useful open forum to discuss a future project, a concept or simply a rough idea.

In this instance we were discussing Wind Farms and the various interfaces they have that require monitoring, control and safety around them.

When we start with a client, we set an agenda to understand what they have already, what they know and also what they don’t know.

Cyber Security Seminar - Renewable UK

The RenewableUK Cyber Security Seminar 2004 took place from the dizzying heights of the 9th floor of Fieldfisher’s Riverbank House, overlooking the capital’s most famous river. 

Four guest speakers gave inspiring talks, spanning different elements of cyber security around renewable energy, each sharing their knowledge and experience on practical cyber security implementation for renewable energy projects.  Content included implementation and monitoring, considerations for the full cyber security lifecycle, supply chain risks, the rollout across Europe of the NIS2 Cyber Security Framework and what the UK's likely version might look like and concluded with an interesting overview of physical security and the cyber threat landscape.

April Pottery Activity

On Friday 12 April, some of the Proeon team enjoyed an afternoon of relaxation and creativity.

We arranged for them to undertake an afternoon at a local pottery . The host Diana was a great teacher, very helpful and encouraging, despite the fact that some of us managed to develop lovely pots, only to see them suddenly fall apart on the wheel…. Clearly more tuition sessions might be needed.

All in all a lovely afternoon was had by all, good to step away from the office and do a fun activity together.

We have some candid shots to share of the team participating in this activity.

Don't take Offence....

Standing up to Cyber threats isn’t just about building a taller, thicker, wall to defend against a marauding aggressor, peaking over the ever-increasing parapet builds a greater understanding of the types of threat.

It’s a battle-field out there, we don’t like to admit it, but our appetite for technology and the connected everything is blurring our admission we’re at war.   It’s not a conflict in the true sense of the word, with hand-to-hand combat and bombs, but it is a conflict that affects us all, it can damage people, business, finances and of course the environment.

UVDB: Empowered by Achilles

 

Last week was a busy week with projects, workshop moves and an Audit thrown in for good measure. The Audit was the culmination of a process to allow Proeon Systems to supply public sector operators like the National Grid etc. having had a lot of interest from the sector for Proeon to supply services.

The certification is a yearly process of membership and auditing to confirm that the business is performing to minimum requirements in order to accept projects and tenders that come from the sector.  The assessment is performed by the Achillies group that are also responsible for FPAL (of which Proeon is already certified with) and sector assesments for Transport, Utilities, and Cement etc

The assessment covers Quality Management Systems, Health & Safety, Environmental policies, procedures and documentation which is all evidence based.  Proeon is very pleased to say that we scored above average in H&S and a rather unique 100% in Quality Management Systems, which just goes to prove what we already knew, ‘We’re at the top of our game for Quality, Products and Services’

Proeon System hope that this accreditation will also support other business avenues being a visual statement of our standards and procedures.
