Energy management according to ISO 50001: Efficient energy use, sustainable cost reduction and measurable competitive advantages
Your security as a strategic success factor
The growing awareness of sustainable business practices and the increasing legal requirements – particularly as a result of the Energy Services Act (EDL-G) – make professional energy management indispensable. ISO 50001 provides the globally recognized standard for structuring, monitoring and optimizing energy consumption. A certified energy management system (EnMS) not only fulfills the legal requirements, but also reduces costs and provides you with important competitive advantages.
Why energy management is becoming increasingly important
In times of rising energy prices and growing sustainability requirements, the topic of energy management is becoming increasingly important. Companies are not only obliged by the Energy Services Act(EDL-G) to review their energy consumption – they also benefit economically and ecologically from a structured energy audit. ISO 50001 offers the international standard for a professional energy management system that allows you to increase your energy efficiency, make optimum use of resources and reduce costs sustainably.
ISO 50001:2018 - Your reliable standard for energy management
ISO 50001:2018 has replaced the version ISO 50001:2011 and forms the current, globally recognized framework for systematic energy management. The core aspects are:
- Energy use, energy sources and energy consumption: transparent recording of all relevant data.
- Continuous improvement: Systematic identification of potential savings and optimizations.
- Certification and compliance: With an ISO 50001-certified system, you meet legal requirements and demonstrate your responsibility for the environment and society.
An energy management system in accordance with ISO 50001 often serves as a recognized alternative to an energy audit (DIN EN 16247) and can be ideally integrated into a holistic environmental strategy (for example in combination with EMAS).
