In-house emergency services standardised

The assumption of responsibility for the regional 110 kV and 150 kV grids has resulted in a considerable increase in the number of TenneT offices, and an in-company emergency service has had to be set up for every office. TenneT's in-company emergency service was standardised during the year under review, so that the same training is now given at all locations. Exercises are now held jointly, buildings are equipped with the same in-house emergency response equipment, escape routes are clearly labelled throughout the premises, and arrangements with the external emergency services have been harmonised. In 2009 evacuation plans will be standardised and a TenneT-wide in-company emergency plan will be drawn up.
