ISO 50001 is the international standard for Energy Management Systems. The standard specifies the requirements for establishing, implementing, maintaining and improving an energy management system, whose purpose is to enable an organization to follow a systematic approach in achieving continual improvement of energy performance, including energy efficiency, energy security, energy use and consumption. This standard is compatible with other management system standards particularly the widely used ISO 9001 Quality Management Standard and ISO 14001 Environmental Management Systems standard.
