ISO 50001 Certification Service

ISO 50001 is an energy management standard that helps businesses establish and implement energy management systems (EnMS) to help manage and reduce energy use and costs within the business.

A recognised UK standard based on the ISO model system of continual improvement guides businesses in improving their quality and environmental management. ISO 50001 can help any size of business to become more resilient, reduce costs, meet legislation requirements and increase sustainability.

What is ISO 50001?

ISO 50001 is the international standard for Energy Management systems, helping businesses and organisations incorporate processes and procedures to manage energy, thereby improving quality and environmental management overall.

It provides a framework to:

Develop a policy designed to use energy more efficiently.
Set objectives and targets that will meet that policy.
Use their data to better understand their energy usage, and make more informed decisions.
Measure and analyse the results of their work.
Review how the policy is working on a regular basis.
Continually improve their energy management.

As with other ISO certifications, like 9001, 27001 and 45001, companies and organisations do not have to achieve ISO 50001 certification. However, in doing so, they are not only adapting to manage their energy performance more efficiently, but they are also demonstrating to suppliers, third parties and customers their dedication and commitment to becoming a more sustainable business.

History of ISO 50001

Following the United Nations Industrial Development Organisation’s (UNIDO) call for a global response to climate change in 2007, ISO was asked to develop an international energy management standard.

Forming a committee led by ISO members, including ABNT (Brazil), SAC (China) and the BSI Group (UK), and with help from the Department of Energy (DoE) as well as US CEEM, ISO 50001:2011 Energy Management Systems-Requirements with Guidance was published in June 2011.

ISO published a revised and updated version of ISO 50001 in 2018 with the aim to encourage more small and medium-sized businesses and organisations to adopt the standard. ISO 50001:2018 also allowed the integration of several management standards together, such as ISO 14001 and ISO 9001, on which ISO 50001 is modelled.

ISO 50001 Requirements

To achieve ISO 50001 certification, businesses and organisations will need to implement the recommended framework, including the development and maintaining of various procedures and processes. This includes implementing energy management processes that are based around five areas:

Compliance – understanding the legal requirements when creating, implementing and maintaining ISO 50001 systems; complying with relevant legal obligations; communicating legal aspects to employees and other interested parties, like suppliers.
Cost – identifying what energy you are using where, and how it is being used; highlighting if, and where, energy is being wasted; implementing effective operational controls to be manage energy usage within the business/organisation.
Perception – demonstrating to third parties, suppliers, customers and other stakeholders that your business/organisation is credible and ethical through an internationally-recognised standard.
Reputation – demonstrates your business/organisation is reducing its environmental impact; reassures all stakeholders that you have implemented best practice systems and procedures; allows you to continuously improve sustainable development.
Risk management – reduces business/organisation’s reliance on fossil fuel-based energy sources, which are subject to availability and price fluctuations.

Benefits of having ISO 50001 certification

ISO 50001:2018 has a greater focus on the continual improvement of energy performance within the business/organisation, and involves employees and leadership on a bigger scale, to reduce the overall environmental impact and be more competitive.

The benefits of ISO 50001 certification are:

A significant reduction in energy costs – better energy management results in reduced energy consumption. By monitoring energy usage and identifying where energy is being wasted, businesses/organisations are able to improve their energy efficiency and save money.
Continual energy efficiency – monitoring energy performance and marking it against industry benchmarks, businesses/organisations can identify where improvements can be made to keep running at optimal energy efficiency.
Brand reputation – achieving ISO 50001 certification demonstrates to all stakeholders the business/organisation’s commitment to becoming environmentally responsible, thereby improving brand reputation.
Compliance – ensuring the business/organisation consistently complies with relevant industry energy legislation and well as with the Energy Savings Opportunity Scheme (ESOS), a mandatory energy assessment scheme for UK businesses/organisations that meet ISO 50001 qualification criteria.
