• The environmental management standards of key suppliers or their contractors were higher or on par with ISO 14001 standard and relevant conditions. The environmental-stewardship conditions specified in the Terms of Reference (TOR) or the contract covered the management of waste, wastewater and air pollution and/or measures required by the EIA.
• Key suppliers used environmental-friendly practices, having the technology of products/machine that emits least pollutants to the environment. Various technologies were applied in environmental management: for example, HRSG (Heat Recovery Steam Generator) was installed at Townsville power plant, heat was recovered to power steam turbines, which reduced fuel consumption in generating electric power.
