ISO 50001

What is ISO 50001?

ISO 50001 is an international energy management system standard that gives organisations of any size a tool to systematically optimise energy performance and promote more efficient energy management.

First published in 2011, a new edition of the standard was released in August 2018.

ISO 50001:2018 has been aligned with the structure of ISO management system standards such as ISO 9001 Quality management and ISO 14001 Environmental management. The use of a common or High Level Structure (HLS) is done to ease the integration of management systems that have already been established in an organisation. Furthermore, the updated version includes a stronger emphasis on the responsibilities of top management, to instil a cultural change in the organisation.
