WHY SGS?

ISO 50001 Energy Management Systems certifications enable you to demonstrate your commitment to treating the environment responsibly, ensuring energy efficiency across all your activities. By having effective energy and environmental management systems you can give your stakeholders the assurances they demand.

ISO 50001 specifies the requirements for an organization to establish, implement, maintain and improve energy management systems (EnMS). ISO 50001 is a voluntary standard that applies to all aspects of an organization’s energy use.

ISO 50001 transforms the way organizations manage energy, offering a systematic approach with sustaining results. The standard has value both as a best practice model for strategic management of energy and as a global benchmark for climate and clean energy action.

ISO 50001 is:

BUSINESS-FRIENDLY Impressive savings based on a proven management framework;

GLOBALLY RELEVANT Developed by over 50 countries; many of whom have implemented supporting policies and programs;

TRANSFORMATIONAL Embeds best practices into any organization, allowing efficiency and productivity gains to endure and grow.

According to ISO, available evidence shows that organizations adopting the ISO 50001 standard benefit from initial energy improvements of 10% or more and achieve net cost savings, mostly through low cost or no cost changes to operations.
