World energy consumption has more than doubled in the last 40 years, and by 2030 is expected to increase by up to 30%. Roughly two-thirds of the world’s greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions, come from energy production and use. These are the main causes of climate change. One of the surest ways of lowering GHG emissions is by reducing energy consumption. Thus, is possible to reduce climate impacts, on the while sustaining growth of the world economy and boosting energy security for all.
ISO 50001 is the most widely known energy management standard in marketplace, and its goal is to help organizations to put in place an energy management system (EnMS) and use their energy more efficiently. This standard is based on the management system model of continual improvement, also used for other well-known standards such as ISO 9001 or ISO 14001, making it easier for organizations to integrate energy management into their overall efforts to improve quality and environmental management.
