What is 50001?

An international voluntary standard is ISO 50001. It offers guidelines for setting up, overseeing, and enhancing the energy efficiency and consumption of any size organisation.

The goal of ISO 50001 is to harmonise and work in tandem with existing system standards, such ISO 9001 for quality management systems and ISO 14001 for environmental management systems. As a result, it is perfect for integrating into current management procedures and systems, including those related to health, safety, and the environment.

Benefits:

• Lowering greenhouse gas emissions and other environmental effects without compromising operations while also improving profitability.
• The energy management systems’ ongoing development.
• Ensuring that energy use is measured, recorded, reported, and benchmarked.
• Reliable information to the market regarding energy efficiency initiatives.
