ISO 50001: A strategic guide to establishing an energy management system

Reduce energy costs and combat climate change with ISO 50001

ISO 50001:2018, the international standard for energy management, provides a framework for organisations - both large and small - to manage and reduce their energy usage and associated costs. Implementing an effective EnMS (energy management system) that complies with ISO 50001 ensures that an organisation can:

• Meet legal and contractual energy compliance requirements;
• Save money by managing energy more efficiently;
• Reduce its carbon footprint;
• Increase energy security; and
• Demonstrate a commitment to improved energy performance.

With energy security concerns rising and climate change an existential threat, consumers are increasingly aware of sustainability issues.

ISO 50001 - A strategic guide to establishing an energy management system provides a practical but strategic overview for leadership teams of what an EnMS is and how implementing one can bring added value to an organisation. It:

• Explains how ISO 50001:2018 (which is based on ISO's Annex SL) differs from the previous version of the Standard;
• Provides readers with a greater understanding of what energy management is and how taking a risk-based approach can save money and improve brand reputation; and
• Covers how ISO 50001 can be implemented and how the EnMS can be integrated with other management systems, such as an ISO 14001 EMS (environmental management system).
