What Is It?
ISO 50001:2018 brings a systematic approach to planning, implementing, maintaining and improving an energy management system.
ISO 50001 describes a systematic approach to enable organisations to continually improve energy performance and energy management.
The organisation must understand the internal and external issues that can affect, either positive or negative, energy performance and the energy management system.
To ensure success, top management must demonstrate their commitment to the management system and develop an energy policy that the organisation must follow.
Planning must address the organisations risks and opportunities based off its context, desired energy outputs and targets and the measures needed to monitor and achieve these objectives.
The organisation must support the management systems with the right people, skills, technology, data infrastructure and financial resources.
The organisations processes should be planned, implemented and controlled, ensuring facilities, equipment and systems are designed with the goal of improvement.
The organisation must be able to demonstrate and verify that it has achieved its energy performance targets and objectives through internal audits and management reviews.
The organisation must implement an energy performance improvement process and correct nonconforming processes.
