Energy Management Systems – Requirements with guidance for use

1 Introduction:

The purpose of this Intentional Standard (IS) is to enable organizations to establish the

systems and processes necessary to improve energy performance, including energy efficiency,

use and consumption. Implementation of this IS is intended to lead to reductions in

greenhouse gas emissions and other related environmental impacts and energy cost through

systematic management of energy. This IS is applicable to all types and sizes of

organizations, irrespective of geographical, cultural or social conditions. Successful

implementation depends on commitment from all level and functions of the organization and

especially from top management.

This IS specifies EnMS reuirements , upon !ith an organization can develop and implement

an energy policy, and establish ob"ectives, targets and action plans !hich ta#e into account

legal reuirements and information related to significant energy use. $n EnMS enables an

organization to achieve its policy commitments, ta#e action as needed to improve its energy

performance and demonstrate the conformity of the system to the reuirements of this IS.

This IS applies to the activities under the control of the organisation and application of this IS

can be tailored to fit the specific reuirements of the organizations including the comple%ity

of the system degree of documentation and resources.

This IS is based on P!" # $% # &'E&( # !&) *P$&!+ continual improvement

frame!or# and incorporates energy management into everyday organization practises as in

&igure '.

"ote In the conte%t of EM, the P$&! approach can be outlined as follo!s

lan *onduct the energy revie! and establish the baseline, energy performance indicators

(EnIs), ob"ectives, targets and action plans necessary to deliver results that !ill improve

energy performance in accordance !ith the organization energy policy.

+o Implement the EM action plans.

*hec# Monitor and measure processes and the #ey characteristics of operation that

determine energy performance against the energy policy and ob"ectives and report the results.

$ct Ta#e actions continually improve energy performance and the EnMS.

to enhance competiveness and to reduce greenhouse gas emissions and other related

environmental impacts. This IS is applicable irrespective of the types of energy used.

This IS can be used for certification, registration and self7determination of an organization8s

commitments in the energy policy of the organizations and its obligation to comply !ith

applicable legal reuirements and other reuirements. Thus t!o organisations carry outsimilar operations, but many different energy performance, can both conform to its

2 Scoe

This IS specifies reuirements for establishing , implementing , maintaining and improving

an energy management system, !hose purpose is to enable an organization to follo! a

systematic approach in achieving continual improvement of energy performance, including

energy efficiency , energy use and consumptions.

This IS specifies reuirements applicable to energy use and consumption, including

measurement , documentation and reporting , design and procurement practises for

euipment , systems , processes and personnel that contribute to energy performance.

This IS applies to all variables affecting energy performance that can be monitored and

influenced by the organizations. This IS does not prescribe specific performance criteria !ith

respect to energy. This IS has been designed to be used independently but it can be aligned or

integrated !ith other management system.

This IS is applicable to any organization !ishing to ensure that it conforms to its stated

energy policy and !ishing to demonstrate this to others, such conformity being confirmed

either by means of self7evaluation and self7declaration of conformity or by certification of the
