Energy Management System.
ISO 50 001 standard
With the aim of providing support to the environmental
policy of the European Union, and in response to the
challenges posed by its 20-20-20 strategy, the certifiable
standard, EN16001 -Energy Management System was
approved in first instance, which acted as a guarantee
of the commitment to energy efficiency within an
organisation. In August 2011, this standard went on to
become the ISO 50001 standard, which thus made its
field of action a global one.

Why the ISO 50 001?
The aim of the is to enable organisations to implement the systems and processes
they require to improvethe energy performance of their installations, with the clear
aim of reducing greenhouse gas emissions and operational energy costs.
To give greater coherence and guarantee in the implementation of an , companies
obtain their certificate after undergoing the corresponding auditing and certification
process.

What is an Energy Management System?
An Energy Management System is understood asreferring to the set of inter-related
or inter-acting elements that work to establish the energy policy, the energy objectives
and the processes and procedures for achieving these aims.
To do this, the standard is based on a system of Plan > D o > Check > Act for
continuous improvement that includes the EMS (Energy Management System) in
all company practices.
Specifically:

Plan

DoCheck

Act

Carry out an energy review,
establish the base line,
the energy performance
indicators, targets,
objectives and plans of
action.

Implement the necessary
plan of action.

Monitor and measure
the processes and their
operational features that
allow for contrasts with the
policy and its objectives,
and report the results.

Take the necessary actions
to continuouslyimprove
energy performance and the
EMS itself.

Implications
The concept of continuous improvement involves the for later analysis, to make it
possible to check if the stated objectives are being fulfilled, and follow up the designed and implemented energy performance improvement plans of action. If not,
the appropriate measures are then taken.

The Standard's Structure
The phases of thestandard are shown in the following diagram:

Energy policy

This makes up the initial stage
where the objectives to be
fulfilled, the resources for its
implementation and investments
to be made are all defined.

Key points of UNE 216501

• Analysis of energy supplies

• Analysis of horizontal technology and
service processes

• Analysis ofproduction processes

» Data measurement and acquisition
» Energy accounting process

Continuous
improvement

Planning

• Analysis of proposals for improvement
• Development of improvements

Identification and implementation of
legal aspects and design of the plans
of action to be developed.

Management review

Implementation and operation

In this phase, management reviews
theoperation of the EMS to ensure
its viability, suitable development
and effectiveness.

The previously designed plans
of action are implemented, the
required documents and internal
communication plan are prepared
and the necessary energy services,
products, equipment and energies
are acquired.

Internal
audit

Verification
This phase consists of the check
and control points, such asthe
installation of a measurement
system, monitoring, information
processing and analysis,
internal audits and assessment
of compliance with the legal
requirements.
