ISO 5000 Family to help cut energy consumption.
For organizations committed to addressing their impact, conserving resources and improving the bottom line through efficient energy management, we developed ISO 50001.
Designed to support organizations in all sectors, this ISO standard provides a practical way to improve energy use, through the development of an energy management system (EnMS).
The new ISO 50001 standard for energy management systems can help safeguard our future by making a positive difference in the here and now.
Developing an energy management system
ISO 5001 is based on the management system model of continual improvement also used for 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.
1. Develop a policy for more efficient use of energy
2. Fix targets and objectives to meet the policy
3. Use data to better understand and make decisions about energy use
4. Measure the results
5.Review how well the policy works, and
6. Continually improve energy management.
