Apply environmentally and sustainable procedures in the energy sector

Assessment tool

Version 1.0
Issue Date: May 2024


This unit involves the skills and knowledge required to apply environmentally sustainable procedures in the energy sector.

It includes identifying and applying sustainable methods of work practice that minimise energy and material usage and to apply energy reduction strategies in the energy sector workplace.

No licensing, legislative or certification requirements apply to this unit at the time of publication.

You may want to include more information here about the target group and the purpose of the assessments (eg formative, summative, recognition)


Evidence Required

List the assessment methods to be used and the context and resources required for assessment. Copy and paste the relevant sections from the evidence guide below and then re-write these in plain English.

Evidence required to demonstrate competence in this unit must be relevant to and satisfy all of the requirements of the elements and performance criteria on at least two separate occasions and include:

applying relevant work health and safety (WHS)/occupational health and safety (OHS) and environmental requirements

applying sustainable energy principles and work practice in daily work activities

completing relevant workplace documentation

coordinating work with others

identifying and obtaining materials required for work

identifying environmental risks and resource efficiency issues

dealing with unplanned events in accordance with workplace procedures in a manner that minimises risk to personnel, equipment and environment

demonstrating the application of environmental and sustainable procedures in the energy sector, including:

undertaking an energy assessment

selecting energy efficient methods and components

reviewing environmentally and sustainable procedures and documenting suggestions for improvements to relevant person/s

obtaining approval from appropriate personnel before any contingencies are implemented.

Evidence required to demonstrate competence in this unit must be relevant to and satisfy all of the requirements of the elements and performance criteria and include knowledge of:

sustainable work practices, including:

economic benefits of sustainable initiatives

effects of neglecting sustainable work practice

international and national greenhouse imperatives

legislative requirements

notion of sustainable work practice

the greenhouse effect - causes and consequences

the role of regulators and similar bodies

techniques for reducing carbon produced energy and hence greenhouse gases, including:

domestic, commercial and industrial strategies

energy efficient retrofits (overview)

renewable energy (RE) technologies (overview)

trade-related technologies and methods

relevant risk mitigation processes

relevant WHS/OHS legislated requirements

relevant workplace documentation

relevant workplace policies and procedures.

Assessors must hold credentials specified within the Standards for Registered Training Organisations current at the time of assessment.

Assessment must satisfy the Principles of Assessment and Rules of Evidence and all regulatory requirements included within the Standards for Registered Training Organisations current at the time of assessment.

Assessment must occur in workplace operational situations where it is appropriate to do so; where this is not appropriate, assessment must occur in simulated workplace operational situations that replicate workplace conditions.

Assessment processes and techniques must be appropriate to the language, literacy and numeracy requirements of the work being performed and the needs of the candidate.

Resources for assessment must include access to:

a range of relevant exercises, case studies and/or other simulations

relevant and appropriate materials, tools, equipment and technology currently used in industry

applicable documentation, including workplace procedures, equipment specifications, regulations, relevant industry standards, codes of practice and operation manuals.

Assessment Tasks

Copy and paste from the following data to produce each assessment task. Write these in plain English and spell out how, when and where the task is to be carried out, under what conditions, and what resources are needed. Include guidelines about how well the candidate has to perform a task for it to be judged satisfactory.

Range is restricted to essential operating conditions and any other variables essential to the work environment.

Non-essential conditions may be found in the UEE Electrotechnology Training Package Companion Volume Implementation Guide.
