ISO 50001 Certification Committing to Sustainable Energy

International standard Organization voluntarily developed Energy Management System ISO


50001:2011. It serves large and small organizations both in the public and private sectors in
manufacturing and services by fulfilling the requirements for energy management systems (EnMS).
This standard publishes the framework for multiple sets of Organizations to manage their energy
efficiently and effectively such as Industrial plants, commercial, institutional and government
facilities. It is estimated that this standard can influence 60% of the world's energy use. It helps the
Organization to improve energy performance and establish sustainable processes. Implementation
of this standard can reduce greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions and another environmental impact.

This standard was released by ISO In 2011 which is suitable for every type of organization
irrespective of size or nature such as hospitals, shopping malls, commercial buildings, manufacturing

Standard is based on the continual improvement of the management system model of well-known
standards such as ISO 9001 or ISO 14001. It becomes easy for Organizations to improve quality and
environmental management in integration with energy management.

An energy management system which enables the organization to develop and implement the
policies and procedures to identify and control the areas where energy consumption is more than
required. Organizations need this certification to promote saving energy initiatives and energy
reduction for effective company's operations.

 Existing energy-consuming assets can be used in a better way it assists Organization to do


the same
 Management and control of energy resources it facilitates the communication
 Energy management system promoted by this standard
 Prioritizing and evaluating the new energy-efficient technologies
 Design a framework for promoting energy efficiency

Companies in today's time of any statue are more energy conscious they applied different ways to
save energy. We have noticed that in some of the organization's sensor electrical appliances has
been installed which only works once it senses someone present in the room. With its simplicity, this

It addresses the organization's requirement and designs the framework accordingly; it follows the
Plan-Do-Check-Act process to improve energy performance continually.

 A policy has been developed for efficient use of energy


 To meet the policy targets and objectives has been fixed
 It measures the results
 How well the policy works review has been done
 Improve energy management continuously
Without sacrificing the operations of the facility it reduces the consumption which many energy-
conscious organizations endeavour. With immense benefits, time will come when this standard has
been approved the best standard ever ISO has ever developed.
