A system of risk management, internal control and auditing

To deal with a constantly evolving energy situation, and multiple geostrategic problems, the Teréga Group has a robust risk management system in place. Covering all its activities, processes and assets, it aims to identify, assess, manage and steer undesirable events (strategic, human, social, environmental, operational, technical, regulatory, financial etc.)  to keep them to an acceptable level, to shine a light on opportunities that should be grasped, and thus increase the Group’s resilience in the face of such disturbances.

This system is organised around three lines of management:

  •  Preserving the value, assets and reputation of the Group,

  • Strengthening the safety of decisional and operational processes,

  • Developing a shared vision of the main risks to which the Group is exposed, with all employees on board.

A business continuity plan

In a world where energy plays a crucial role, Teréga has a Business Continuity Management System (SMCA) in place, fully integrated into our safety programme, PARI 2025 (Prevention of Accidents and Industrial Risks).

The aim of the SMCA is to ensure the stability of operations and the constant availability of the Group’s energy infrastructures when there are extreme climate events, pandemics, or even digital threats, for example.

Business continuity thus enables us to adopt a proactive approach to risks, to identify and attenuate the potential effects, minimising service interruptions and impacts that can be financial as much as operational.

This resilience is not just a response to crises or regulations; it is a true business culture, the key to confidence among investors, customers and local stakeholders: Teréga ensures it adapts quickly to the changes brought about by the energy transition, maintains flexibility in its approach, and demonstrates its responsibility to society and the environment, with complete transparency.

An integrated management system

To guarantee the excellence of its services, Teréga has an integrated management system, and it holds ISO [FB4] certification in many fields: Quality, Environment, Energy, Health and Safety.

Named SMILE (from the French for Integrated Lean and Evolving Management System) it reflects Teréga’s commitment to management that is:

  • Interdisciplinary, with processes involving all Departments in meeting the business’s global challenges, to serve its customers,

  • Integrated, working to certify Quality, Environment, Energy, Health and Safety requirements within a single harmonised management system,

  • Lean, through application of the principles of Lean Management in an ongoing quest for greater efficiency and performance,

  • Evolving, in response to the expectations of all stakeholders, constantly reinventing itself, while guaranteeing its management through recognised certifications.
