ISO 50001:2018
Energy Management System
What is ISO 50001:2018 Energy Management System (EnMS)?
ISO 50001 makes good business sense as energy costs are a significant portion of an organization’s budget. Therefore, a systematic focus on energy management is expected to reduce costs through optimum use of resources and waste reduction. It can also lead to increased production, Improved energy performance, higher profits, and reduced impacts due to rising energy prices.
This Standard is based on a continual improvement management system model and other well-known standards such as ISO 9001 or ISO 14001. This makes it easier for organizations to integrate energy management into their overall efforts to improve quality and environmental management.
