ISO 14001 TO ISO 50001 GAP ANALYSIS This document explains how to use your existing ISO 14001 environmental management system to meet the requirements of ISO 50001. It identifies the common elements to both standards as well as the specific additional requirements of ISO 50001 you will need in order to implement an effective Energy Management System (EnMS).

4 Energy Management System Requirements 4.1 General Requirements
4.1 General Requirements
ISO 50001 includes an additional requirement to define and document the ‘boundaries’ of the EnMS. Boundaries including the physical and/or organisational limits as defined by the organisation. Boundaries could include: • • • •
Processes Systems Sites Organisational divisions or subsidiaries
Be prepared to discuss your defined boundaries with your assessor. 4.2 Management Responsibility
4.4.1 Resources, Roles, Responsibility and Authority
A suitably competent Energy Management Representative must be appointed by top management. Many organisations with an EMS appoint their Environmental Management Representative to also manage the EnMS. Top management has overall responsibility and must be involved in: • •
•
developing the Energy Policy approving the formation of an energy management team providing the resources required for the EnMS
Your top management team should be prepared to discuss their commitment with your assessor. 4.3 Energy Policy
4.2 Environmental Policy
An energy policy is required; it can be a separate policy or integrated with the Environmental Policy. There are a number of common commitments between the two sets of requirements. The energy policy needs to include a commitment to ensuring the availability of information and resources to achieve objectives and targets. It should support the purchase of energy-efficient products, services and design for energy performance improvement.
4.4.1 General
4.3 Planning
You will be required to conduct and document an energy planning process. This can be conducted in much the same way as you do for the EMS.
4.4.2 Legal Requirements and Other Requirements
4.3.2 Legal and Other Requirements You will need to identify the legal and other requirements related to your energy use. The existing EMS will meet this requirement in many cases.
4.4.3 E nergy Review
4.3.1 E nvironmental Aspects
4.4 Energy Planning
You need to undertake an energy review to identify the areas of significant energy uses. This will include an analysis of measurement and other data which may potentially be able to be provided by the EMS’s monitoring and measurement process. Identify opportunities for improving energy performance. Opportunities may have already been identified under some of the EMS’s processes (such as the recommendations for improvement which must be included in the management review). The energy review should be used to direct the implementation of the EnMS, similar to how the aspects and impacts process should be used to direct the implementation of an EMS.
4.4.4 Energy Baseline
Stand-alone requirement!
You need to identify an energy baseline to establish your energy use and consumption patterns over a suitable representative data period.
4.4.5 Energy Performance Indicators (EnPIs)
Stand-alone requirement!
You need to establish EnPIs to monitor and measure energy performance against the energy baseline established.
4.4.6 Energy Objectives, Energy Targets and Energy Management Action Plans
4.3.3 Objectives, Targets and Programmes
The EMS process for Environmental Objectives, Targets and Programmes will help you to meet this requirement to set energy objectives. The EnMS process will need to include methods for verifying improvements in energy performance and results.
