Briefly about ISO 50001

This international standard ISO 50001 applies to organizations of all types and sizes, regardless of geographical location, cultural or social conditions. Successful implementation of the standard depends on the commitment of all levels and functions of the organization, especially top management. This International Standard defines the requirements for an energy management system that enables an organization to develop and implement an energy use policy and set energy use goals, objectives and action plans, taking into account legal requirements and information related to energy use. Energy management systems allow the organization to achieve its political commitments, to take appropriate actions necessary to improve energy efficiency, and to demonstrate the system's compliance with this international standard. This International Standard applies to activities under the control of the organization and where it can be adapted to meet the specific requirements of the organization, including system complexity, level of documentation and available resources.

Objective of ISO 50001

The objective of this international standard is to enable organizations to develop the necessary systems and processes to improve energy efficiency, including energy performance, use and costs. The implementation of this international standard promotes the reduction of greenhouse gas emissions and other negative environmental impacts and energy costs through the application of energy management systems.

ISO 50001 value

The application of this international standard on a global scale leads to more efficient use of available energy resources, increases competitiveness and reduces the emission of greenhouse gases and other negative effects on the environment. This international standard applies regardless of the type of energy used.
Compliance with the requirements of the energy use management system defined in the ISO 50001 standard allows the organization to:
