BS EN 16001:2009 Energy management systems. Requirements with guidance for use
BS EN 16001 will help your business establish the systems and processes necessary to improve energy efficiency. This will help to save money and reduce greenhouse gas emissions through systematic management of energy.


BS EN 16001 specifies requirements for an energy management system to enable you to develop and implement a policy and objectives which take into account legal requirements and information about significant energy aspects. It is a useful document for all types and sizes of organizations and accommodates diverse geographical, cultural and social conditions. This standard applies to the activities under the control of an organization.


BS EN 16001 can be used independently or integrated with any other management system. To facilitate its use, the structure of this standard is similar to the structure of BS EN ISO 14001.

ENERGY MANAGEMENT

Overview

Effective energy management is a crucial issue for the success of any business. For many, the answer is an Energy Management System (EnMS) – a framework for the systematic management of energy. As well as enhancing energy efficiency, an EnMS can cut costs and reduce greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions providing you with a competitive advantage.

EN 16001 represents the latest best practice in energy management building upon existing national standards and initiatives. The standard specifies the requirements for an EnMS to enable your organization to develop and implement a policy, identify significant areas of energy consumption and target energy reductions.

Feature & benefits



· Reduce costs

· Improve business performance

· Engage top management

· Reduce your GHG emissions

· Formalise energy policy and objectives

· Integrate your management systems

· Secure energy supply

· Drive innovation

· Flexible and scalable



How can we help?



Assessment and certification

Our assessment capabilities are globally recognized for providing a value-added service while our assessors are qualified professionals with relevant product and industry expertise. We also offer integrated assessments with other management system standards, such as ISO 9001 and ISO 14001, to help reduce the burden of multiple assessments.

Benefits of certification

• Continual improvement

• Enhance reputation

• Improve brand image

• Differentiate from competition

• Enhance competitiveness

• Improve staff motivation and retention




EN 16001 will help you establish the systems and processes necessary to improve energy efficiency leading to reductions in
cost and greenhouse gas emissions through the systematic management of energy.
