About ISO 50001:2018
ISO 50001:2018 specifies requirements for establishing, implementing, maintaining and improving an energy management system. Its purpose is to enable an organization to follow a systematic approach to achieving continual improvement of energy performance, including energy efficiency, energy use and energy consumption.
Innovative Quality Consultancy helps energy-intensive organizations understand where energy is used, set baselines and indicators, and implement operational controls and improvement projects that deliver measurable savings.
Key implementation areas
- Energy policy, scope and boundaries of the EnMS and the energy management team.
- Energy review: analysis of energy use and consumption, identification of significant energy uses (SEUs) and relevant variables.
- Energy baseline(s) and energy performance indicators (EnPIs) with normalization where appropriate.
- Energy objectives, targets and action plans for improvement opportunities.
- Data collection plan, monitoring, measurement and analysis of energy performance.
- Operational control of SEUs, design and procurement considering energy performance.
- Competence and awareness, internal audit, management review and continual improvement.
Suitable organizations
