Red Eléctrica now has an efficient and cost-effective system for the registration, traceability and control of waste, capable of establishing a hierarchy among its various facilities and providing secure access to external users.
To curb climate change and reduce greenhouse gas emissions, European directives have been tightened and require companies to fully control the waste they generate, from start to finish. In order to achieve this real traceability, large corporations need to apply waste reduction guidelines to all their related companies, but also to their contractors and suppliers.
This is the case of Red Eléctrica, the sole operator and transporter of the Spanish electricity system, which belongs to Redeia. In 2018 it already had a demanding sustainability plan that materialized in specific objectives, such as minimizing the amount and hazardousness of waste, largely linked to maintenance work and facility improvements.
In order to standardize the documentary control and traceability of the waste generated in its operations and contribute to REDEIA's zero waste plan, since 2019 it also has a technical office for waste documentation management, managed by TEIMAS.
Thus, Red Eléctrica now has an efficient and cost-effective system for the registration, traceability and control of waste, capable of establishing a hierarchy among its various facilities and providing secure access to external users (such as, for example, waste management service providers, contractors and suppliers of the company).
Since its activation in 2019, the software used by Red Eléctrica's document management office, Zero, simplifies administrative management, business decision-making, regulatory compliance, successfully passing audits and reducing waste sent to landfill.
Behind Zero is TEIMAS, one of the few international software companies 100% specialized in the digitization of the waste value chain.
