Reading’s renewable energy specialist, Anesco, has won two internationally recognised health and safety awards.

Green Park-based Anesco has been awarded a Royal Society for the Prevention of Accidents (RoSPA) Gold award, which recognises strong occupational health and safety practices.

The firm has also been awarded a RoSPA presidents award for maintaining high health and safety standards over a period of ten years or more.

Mark Futyan, Anesco’s CEO, said: “Safety is a core value for our business and it is something that is deeply embedded in all that we do – from our construction teams on site, to our engineers who are out there daily monitoring and maintaining assets, and our office-based employees.

“It’s therefore fantastic to be recognised by RoSPA for upholding the highest levels of health and safety for more than a decade and my thanks go to the whole team for their ongoing efforts.”

To date, Anesco’s teams have constructed 106 solar farms and 30 energy storage facilities; the firm has 24,000 assets under the care of its operations and maintenance service.

Julia Small, RoSPA’s Achievements Director, said: “This is a fantastic and well-deserved accomplishment. All our award entrants demonstrate their unwavering commitment and passion for keeping people safe at work.

“By receiving this recognition, Anesco joins like-minded businesses and organisations worldwide, who represent the very best in their approach to Health and Safety.

“I would like to add my personal thanks for all the work that it has taken to secure this well-deserved award – congratulations to all those involved, who champion and drive up Health and Safety standards every day. You are a fantastic example to others in your sector.”
