ISO 50001 Energy Management System

ISO 50001 ENERGY MANAGEMENT SYSTEM

ISO 50001 enables organizations to establish the processes and systems required to improve energy efficiency, as well as to implement and sustain these processes and systems. The standard covers all types of energy and encourages organizations to adopt effective energy management practices, reduce costs, and increase environmental responsibility.

In today’s world, where energy has become increasingly important, the ISO 50001 Energy Management System—based on the efficient use of energy—is a management system applicable to organizations of all sizes and across all sectors. It can be implemented as a standalone system or integrated with other management systems.
The Energy Management System is based on defining an organization’s energy policy, managing energy consumption through energy management programs established in line with objectives and targets, and ensuring continuous improvement by evaluating energy management system performance.
