What is the BRL SIKB 11000?
The BRL SIKB 11000 is an assessment guideline for the design, realization, management and maintenance of the underground part of soil energy systems (WKO installations). The guideline is linked to the Soil Quality Decree (Bbk) and guarantees the quality and effectiveness of these systems.
The Soil Quality Decree requires these activities to be carried out by a recognized company. Certification according to BRL SIKB 11000 is required in practice to obtain this recognition. Are you working without certification? Then you are acting in violation of laws and regulations. This can be regarded as an environmental crime.
With certification you demonstrate that your organization meets all applicable requirements.
How does certification work in practice?
The BRL SIKB 11000 sets requirements for:
- Design of the underground part of soil energy systems.
- Realization of WKO installations

- Quality assurance and procedure
One protocol accompanies this assessment guideline:
Protocol 11001 - Technical execution criteria.
This protocol describes the technical requirements for carrying out work on the underground part of soil energy systems.
During the certification process we test whether your organization works according to the guideline and the associated protocol. We look at processes, expertise and practical implementation.
