BS EN ISO 50001:2018 free download.Energy management systems – Requirements with guidance for use.
The aim of this document is to enable organizations to establish the systems and processes necessary to continually improve energy performance, including energy efficiency, energy use and energy consumption. This document specifies the energy management system (EnMS) requirements for an organization. Successful implementation of an EnMS supports a culture of energy performance improvement that depends upon commitment from all levels of the organization, especially top management. In many instances, this involves cultural changes within an organization.
BS EN ISO 50001 applies to the activities under the control of the organization. Its application can be tailored to fit the specific requirements of the organization, including the complexity of its systems, degree of documented information and available resources. This document does not apply to product use by end-users outside of the scope and boundaries of the EnMS, nor does it apply to product design outside of facilities, equipment, systems or energy-using processes. This document does apply to the design and procurement of facilities, equipment, systems or energy-using processes within the scope and boundaries of the En MS.
Development and implementation of an EnMS includes an energy policy, objectives, energy targets and action plans related to its energy efficiency, energy use, and energy consumption while meeting applicable legal requirements and other requirements. An EnMS enables an organization to set and achieve objectives and energy targets, to take actions as needed to improve its energy performance, and to demonstrate the conformity of its system to the requirements of this document.
This document provides requirements for a systematic, data-driven and facts-based process, focused on continually improving energy performance. Energy performance is a key element integrated within the concepts Introduced in this document in order to ensure effective and measurable results over time. Energy performance is a concept which is related to energy efficiency, energy use and energy consumption. Energy performance indicators (EnPis) and energy baselines (EnBs) are two interrelated elements addressed in this document to enable organizations to demonstrate energy performance improvement.
0.3 Plan-Do-Check-Act (PDCA) cycle
The EnMS described in this document is based on the Plan-Do-Check-Act (PDCA) continual improvement framework and incorporates energy managenwnt into existing organizational practices, as illustrated in Figure 1.
This document conforms to ISO’s requirements for management system standards, including a high- level structure, identical core text, and common terms and definitions, thereby ensuring a high level of compatibility with other management system standards. This document can be used independently; however, an organization can choose to combine its EnMS with other management systems, or integrate its EnMS in the achievement of other business, environmental or social objectives. Two organizations carrying out similar operations, but having different energy performance, can both conform to the requirements of ISO 50001.
BS EN ISO 50001 specifies requirements for establishing, implementing, maintaining and improving an energy management system (EnMS). The intended outcome is to enable an organization to follow a systematic approach in achieving continual improvement of energy performance and the EnMS.
This document:
a) is applicable to any organization regardless of its type, size, complexity, geographical location, organizational culture or the products and services it provides;
b) is applicable to activities affecting energy performance that are managed and controlled by the organization;
c) is applicable irrespective of the quantity, use, or types of energy consumed;
d) requires demonstration of continual energy performance improvement, but does not define levels of energy performance improvement to be achieved;
e) can he used independently, or be aligned or integrated with other management systems.
Annex A provides guidance for the use of this document. Annex B provides a comparison of this edition with the previous edition.
