An ISO 50001-compliant energy management system enables a company or organization to develop and implement procedures for the continuous improvement of its energy performance, including energy efficiency, practices and consumption.
Like ISO 9001, ISO 14001 or ISO 45001, which are based on the continuous improvement approach and are easy to integrate, ISO 5001 promotes the optimization of energy performance. This translates into a better understanding of risks and opportunities, and the definition of energy performance objectives and indicators.
