ISO 50001 Consultancy: Energy Management System

ISO 50001 is the international standard for energy management systems. The current edition is ISO 50001:2018. It gives organisations a framework to improve energy efficiency, reduce energy consumption and lower energy costs. With CE Danışmanı (CE Consultant) you get your ISO 50001 certificate through a single point of contact for the whole process.

What ISO 50001 covers

The standard helps an organisation assess its energy performance, set objectives, and plan, implement, check, measure, analyse and improve the way it manages energy. It covers all energy sources and all processes that use energy. It gives guidance on establishing, implementing, maintaining and improving the system. It does not prescribe a fixed level of consumption.

In practice the system is built on measurement. Energy use is monitored, the results are analysed, and action is taken where the figures show a loss.

Who can use it

ISO 50001 is designed for organisations in every sector. Any organisation that wants to manage its energy use better can apply it, whatever its size.

Why companies apply it

• Lower energy bills through controlled consumption
• Energy use that is measured and monitored, so decisions rest on data
• Lower carbon emissions and a smaller environmental footprint
• More careful use of energy resources
• A more sustainable and competitive operation
• Evidence for customers, employees and the public that the organisation takes energy management and its environmental responsibilities seriously

ISO 50001 and ISO 9001

Both are international management system standards that can be used in any sector, but they serve different purposes. Details of the quality standard are on our ISO 9001 page.

Both standards rest on continual improvement, and an organisation can run them as one integrated system. Companies that already manage their environmental impact with ISO 14001 can add energy management to the same system.

The steps to certification

1. The organisation learns the requirements of the standard and compares them with its current practice.
2. It chooses a consultancy for the project.
3. The consultancy helps it set up an energy management system that meets the requirements of ISO 50001.
4. The organisation prepares for the certification audit.
5. The certification body audits the organisation and decides whether the system conforms to the standard.
6. After certification, the organisation keeps the system running and meets the requests of the certification body at the periodic audits.

At the audit, every area within the scope of the system is examined in detail. A gap in one area can delay the certificate, so it pays to review all requirements carefully before the audit date.

Validity

ISO 50001 certificates are valid for three years. During that period the certification body carries out a surveillance audit each year to confirm that the system continues to conform and to work effectively.
