About ISO 50001

---

ISO 50001 is the international standard that specifies the requirements for an Energy Management System (EnMS).

An EnMS provides a structured approach to organizations that aim to reduce energy consumption and manage their environmental impact through energy efficiency. The resulting cost savings and improvements to energy performance enhance the competitiveness of organizations in the marketplace for their products and services. The EnMS enables organizations to reduce their greenhouse gas emissions while at the same time raising their levels of compliance with legal requirements. Across organizations awareness of the significance of energy efficiency encourage continual improvements to the effectiveness of their EnMS.

Organizations certified to ISO 50001 demonstrate to their stakeholders that their advocacy on climate change is backed up with systematic actions in their operations to achieve energy efficiency.

CIP certifies organizations to ISO 50001 that successfully complete CIP’s audit process of their EnMS against the criteria of the standard.
