What is ISO 50001 Energy Management?
ISO 50001:2018 Energy Management Systems is a data-driven international standard that specifies the requirements for organisations to establish an energy management system by baselining performance, establishing energy targets, improving efficiency and providing a framework for continual improvement.
Successful implementation of ISO 50001 requires a commitment from all levels of an organisation to create a culture of energy performance and continual improvement.
By improving energy performance organisations can reduce costs, improve competitiveness and achieve overall climate mitigation goals by reducing energy-related greenhouse gas emissions.
Note: Energy Management Systems are also known as EnMS rather than the acronym EMS which is typically used for Environmental Management Systems.
