Croatian state-owned power utility HEP became the holder of the certificate of integrated environmental, quality, energy, health and work safety system according to international standards ISO 9001:2015, ISO 14001:2015, ISO 50001:2018 and ISO 45001:2018. At the same time, HEP Upravljanje imovinom (Asset Management division) was certified in the field of businesses forming an inseparable whole with HEP. HEP’s CEO Frane Barbaric said that the company has been managing assets worth more than 5 billion euros as well as the critical infrastructure of strategic importance for the Republic of Croatia. It has also been managing the system providing services to more than 2 million buyers and customers. Therefore, the need for an integrated system of business affairs is more than obvious. Introduction of the integrated system of environmental and energy management is seen as part of the implementation of renewable development scenario within HEP 2030 strategy, and the area of health and work safety is one of the most important areas for HEP Group, where we have recently undertaken very important activities. Along with other system documentation required by the standards, HEP’s Management Board adopted the umbrella document – Policy of quality, environment protection, energy, health and work safety management for HEP and HEP Upravljanje imovinom, which states the commitment to maintain and permanently improve the integrated management system. HEP has been introducing international management systems into the business of other HEP Group’s companies. So, HEP Proizvodnja (electricity generation dividion) has introduced integrated environmental, quality and energy management system. HEP – Operator distribucijskog sustava (electricity distribution system operator) has implemented the transition of the norm for health and safety protection. Upon introducing environmental and quality management systems, HEP – Toplinarstvo (district heating division) is currently implementing integrated environmental, quality and energy management system.
