ISO 50001: Energy Management Systems

About the Course

Where do you start if you are tasked with managing energy for your facility or your clients? Implement the international best practices approach – implement the ISO 50001 energy management system.

Whether you are interested in following a standardised and structured approach for mere internal self-improvement, or whether you are interested in getting internationally certified for marketing, environmental, and energy sustainability and reporting purposes, this training course will give you the tools and know-how to get “ISO 50001 - ready”.

The ISO 50001 Energy Management System training course covers all aspects of the standard in detail, how to implement the set requirements of the standard, and gives delegates the tools to physically get the standard implemented in a practical, concise, and interactive structure. The ISO 50001 standard is the internationally agreed most optimal approach to control your energy use, energy consumption, and energy efficiency.

The ISO 50001 standard, like other ISO standards, follows the Plan-Do-Check-Act methodology. Each of these cycles is covered in detail, and delegates walk away from this training course with immediate and actionable tools and steps to start with an understandable and transparent implementation of the standard. The standard provides monthly/quarterly top management energy performance feedback reporting and roles, responsibilities, and critical operating parameters for equipment/systems operators and energy use influencers. This standard is holistic in its approach and is the only ISO standard guaranteed to save and continue to save energy and money to consistently meet environmental targets.

Core Objectives

The delegates will achieve the following objectives:

• Learning the structure and methodology of Energy Management Systems implementation or getting “ISO 50001 - ready”
• Understanding the benefit and international best practices for having a structured and sustainable approach to energy management
• Applying the consequential standard approach through the use of software tools to ensure and guarantee energy savings and sustain it
• Analysing current energy performance and energy opportunities in a concise and structured way
• Evaluate actual performance against set policy, targets, and objectives to ensure a successful implementation of the standard
• Create continuous and sustainable savings through team recognition, management leadership, and achievable targets

Training Approach

This training course will use various proven learning techniques to ensure maximum understanding, comprehension and retention of the information presented. The training course will follow a participative workshop format. It will be focused on developing practical skills that delegates can apply in real-life business situations on return to their organisation.
