MEMBER NEWS: MTE granted prestigious Fit4Nuclear status

Following stringent assessments and on-site verification, MTE has been granted the prestigious Fit4Nuclear status by the Nuclear Advanced Manufacturing Research Centre (Nuclear AMRC).

MTE has successfully demonstrated that they have the required quality, safety and operational standards in place to deliver their bespoke fabricated products to clients within the nuclear industry.

The rigorous assessments took place over an 11-month period and involved reporting and improvement of six key areas in business operation and performance. The process also included an on-site verification visit by a F4N assessor and a review of MTE’s project experience within the nuclear sector.

This achievement demonstrates MTE’s commitment to delivering its products and services to the highest industry standards and vision for continued business growth.

Run by the Nuclear Advanced Manufacturing Research Centre (Nuclear AMRC), the award helps businesses win work by ensuring they meet the standards required to supply into the nuclear industry – in new build, operations and decommissioning.

George Hodgson, Head of Governance Compliance said: “The Fit4Nuclear certificate of achievement enables the company to become pre-approved to tender for work and also has the additional benefit of advance notice of upcoming projects.

“It’s important for us to build long-term trusting relationships with our customers and the F4N status allows us to provide that assurance. This prestigious status is a positive addition to the MTE award portfolio.”

AREG has played an important role in the growth of Scotland’s renewable energy sector, engaging the supply chain and developing the European Offshore Wind Deployment Centre. However, we are only at the very beginning of the transition that AREG was established to both lead and support so there are still opportunities for companies to get into the constantly evolving renewables supply chain. We look forward to continuing our work together as renewables builds on its place as Scotland’s main source of power, and as we seek to deliver real change in the crucial areas of heat and transport.

Aberdeen & Grampian Chamber of Commerce has worked closely with AREG since its formation. The recent progress in the developments of offshore wind projects by Equinor and Vattenfall are as a result of the work of the group over many years. The north-east is known as the oil and gas capital of Europe. At the Chamber, we believe the region must evolve its position to being recognised as the energy capital. Whilst hydrocarbons will continue to be essential in driving our economy for years to come, the generation of renewable resources will play an increasingly important role in providing cost-effective power, innovative development and economic growth.

The enthusiasm and dedication of the early group that would become AREG was fundamental in us choosing to launch All-Energy in Aberdeen. The first tiny show was held in 2001, and AREG’s Chairman at the time, Jeremy Cresswell, played such an active role that I often describe him in terms such as All-Energy’s ‘midwife’. All-Energy is now the UK’s largest renewable and low carbon energy exhibition and conference in terms of number of attendees, space booked, and number of exhibiting companies. As AREG became firmly established, their presence and support for the event grew spectacularly over the years. We thank them most sincerely for their invaluable input.

Vattenfall has forged a strong working relationship with AREG through the development of the European Offshore Wind Deployment Centre. AREG has worked tirelessly on behalf of the North East and it can take enormous credit for the growth of sustainable energy in the region and the path it has cleared for the region to capture further investment.

Aberdeen City and Shire is emerging as a key location for renewables by successfully transferring its world-class oil and gas expertise into the sector and AREG has done much to advance this through a broad range of initiatives. It has acted as a catalyst in driving further investment in the local economy by engaging with companies, Government, public bodies and existing projects and we have been pleased to support their efforts. Scottish Enterprise will continue to engage with AREG as we increase Scotland’s use of renewable energy.
