Energy management system implementation

Introduction

An Energy Management System (EnMS) helps businesses control energy consumption, sustain improvements in energy performance, reduce energy use and costs, and support compliance with applicable requirements on economical and efficient energy use.

ITVC Global has experienced consultants and energy auditors who support the development and implementation of an energy management system based on ISO 50001 and the organisation’s requirements.

Implementation steps

1. Establish the energy management organisation and develop an energy policy.
2. Conduct an energy review, supported by an energy audit.
3. Provide awareness training on the energy management system and internal auditing.
4. Set energy-saving objectives and targets and prepare action plans.
5. Develop procedures and documents and integrate them with other management systems.
6. Put the documented system into practice.
7. Monitor the system, conduct internal audits and address nonconformities.
8. Conduct management review.

Expected improvement

The source gives an indicative saving of 1–20% of energy consumption, depending on the system. This is not a guaranteed result: actual savings depend on the baseline, equipment condition and implemented measures.
