International Energy Management Standards

• In the top three of ISO’s priorities

• ISO 50001 published June 2011

• An Energy Management Systems Standard, EnMS

• Replacing EN 16001, published in 2009, withdrawn 26 April

2012

esta.org.uk

2012

• ‘Systems and processes to improve energy performance’

• Certifier training and qualifications being implemented by UKAS

• More general training available through ESTA, BSI and other

organisations

EU Energy Management Standards

• Energy Audits, UK convenership

• General principles, EN 16247-1, to be published in Oct 2012

• -2 Buildings

• -3 Process

• -4 Transport

• Road

esta.org.uk

• Road

• Rail

• Aviation

• Marine

• Parts 2, 3 and 4 out for consultation at the same time• Part 5: Qualifications and Certification, convenor needed

• May well become mandated in the EU Energy Efficiency Directive, for all

but SMEs and households

Further International Standards under

Development• ISO TC242 meeting Dublin May 2012

• Energy Audits, based on the EU standard, UK convenership

and lead, ISO 50002

• Energy Performance Indicators and Baselines, to be merged

• Measurement and Verification, recognising IPMVP

• Guidance for Implementation, Maintenance and Improvement

• Guidance for Implementation, Maintenance and Improvement

of an EnMS

• Auditing of the EnMS

So what does this mean for the public and private sectors?

• ISO 14001 Environmental Management Standard, EMS, is

well recognised. It is now being updated

• There is now a solid foundation for managing energy, the

EnMS, providing the mechanisms and the management

systems structure

• with further standards for supporting methodologies to follow

• The energy efficiency step change is vital

• The underlying mechanisms have always been there!

• Discussions are underway with the Energy Efficiency Deployment Office, regarding policy developments

What are other countries doing?

• The US Department of Energy, US eguide to ISO

50001

• The Sustainable Energy Authority Ireland

• The Irish Armed Services will be certified to ISO 50001 by end

2012

• In Sweden ISO 50001 is mandated for energy

intensive industries

• “ISO 50001 could influence up to 60 % of the world’s

energy demand.” ISO Focus May 2011

• "The Department of Energy (DOE) supports the ISO

50001 Standard as a proven approach for U.S.

industrial and commercial facilities to plan, manage,

measure, and continually improve energy

performance.” US Department of Energy

EnMS

• EnMS layout, paragraphs and approach based

on existing Standards such as:

• ISO 9000 series

• ISO 14001 The Plan, Do, Check, Act approach

• ISO 14001 The Plan, Do, Check, Act approach

A ‘plan-do-check-act’ cycle.

The importance of standards for energy performance

measurement or indicators • For high level reporting, a simple ratio

– for example

• kWh per tonne

• kWh/m2, (but area doesn’t change)

• kWh/£turnover

• But…..it’s not as straightforward as that for energy

Aim

A different view of the same data• The question might often be:

“How much less energy did I use this week

than I would have used without my

improvement project(s)?”

• Or:

esta.org.uk

• Or:

“how much would I expect to use without any

changes if production this week is 80% of last

week?

The standard will not tell people what to do, merely

raise awareness of the options. It is long overdue

ISO 50001, Energy Performance

Indicator• Quantitative value or measure of energy

performance as defined by the organisation

– Note: EnPIs could be expressed as a simple metric

ratio or a more complex model

ratio or a more complex model

• For the EnPI Standard:

– Might be: actual energy used/baseline use.

– Details yet to be agreed

• Evaluate your Energy Management practices against

those detailed in ISO 50001

• If they are sufficiently encompassing then consider

the internal and external benefits of becoming

certified. Either...

Opportunity

certified. Either...

• Self certify your practices as a means of validation of

those activities

• Apply for external certification if deemed necessary

or possibly required by customers and clients

Energy Management Standards have a

key – and long overdue - role to play
