We’re proud to announce that Alex Whyley, one of our dedicated HV Technicians, has been honoured with the Bronze Award at Mitie’s annual MyAchievement Awards –a well-deserved recognition for his outstanding safety-first response during a recent site inspection.
During a routine high-voltage inspection at a customer substation, Alex spotted a serious oil leak on a DNO-owned voltage transformer inside a customer-owned building. Although this equipment was outside our direct responsibility, Alex’s sharp eye and quick thinking helped avert what could have been a critical safety incident.
Thanks to Alex’s vigilance:
The DNO completed emergency repairs, put monitoring measures in place, and scheduled asset replacement – all made possible by Alex’s proactive actions.
This award is a fantastic testament to Alex’s outstanding contribution and a reminder that safety always comes first at ESM Power.
Congratulations, Alex – well done!
