http://proethica.org/ontology/intermediate#FurtherStudyRecommendationBeforeUnreliableEnergySystemDeploymentObligation
Case context
Engineer A is preparing a board report on the solar-without-storage proposal; BER 16-5 established that engineers with unresolved safety concerns about a system should recommend further study before deployment; the same logic applies to an energy system with unresolved grid reliability risks
Compliance status
unclear
Confidence
0.79
Importance
high
Obligated party
Engineer A
Obligation statement
Engineer A has an obligation, by analogy to the BER 16-5 autonomous vehicle case, to recommend further study before the solar-without-storage system is deployed if safety concerns about grid reliability and rolling blackout probability remain unresolved, expressing those concerns clearly and unambiguously in the board report.
Temporal scope
In the board report, prior to board decision on the solar-without-storage proposal
Relationships
Source Evidence
Source text
The conclusions in Case 16-5 suggest the engineer fully and actively participate as a member of the engineering risk management team and express clearly and unambiguously concerns regarding safety of the operating system.
Text references
BER Case 16-5 is also instructive; it deals with an engineer working on a team developing a driverless/autonomous vehicle operating system.
The BER also suggested that, if necessary, the engineer recommend further study before the operating system is utilized.
The conclusions in Case 16-5 suggest the engineer fully and actively participate as a member of the engineering risk management team and express clearly and unambiguously concerns regarding safety of the operating system.
