What are the benefits of a certified system operated in accordance with ISO 50001?
- It provides energy management based on long-term measurements, rather than ad hoc measures.
- It helps to reduce energy consumption, thereby helping to cut energy costs.
- It results in a more secure and predictable energy supply.
- It improves the company’s compliance with environmental legislation.
- It boosts staff engagement and fosters innovation.
- It raises customer satisfaction levels and, as a result, enhances the company’s reputation.
- It gives you a competitive edge over competitors who do not hold the certificate.
ISO 50001 – ISO 14001
The structure of the new standard is similar to that of ISO 14001, so for companies that already have an environmental management system in place, the introduction and certification of the ISO 50001 energy management system will require less additional effort. However, the use of the ISO 14001 system is not a prerequisite for the introduction of ISO 50001.
