Publisher's Synopsis
EN16001 Energy Management System Documentation Toolkit
Efficient use of energy and its subsequent management presents a real test for many organisations. More and more, organisations are being challenged and selected for supplier contracts not only on the basis of the products and services they provide but also on how they produce and deliver those products and services in an environmentally friendly manner.
Efficient management of energy usage is one means of demonstrating good environmental stewardship.
The EN16001 standard assists organisations in demonstrating efficient energy management. Certification to this new standard makes a statement about your organisation that will be understood by all stakeholders: that you are demonstrating your commitment to improved energy performance.
EN16001 helps organisations develop an energy policy and objectives taking into account its statutory, legal and other requirements.
A Documented Energy Management System
An Energy Management System is a documented system that, in compliance with EN16001, has
An energy policy;
A planned energy management system (or EMS);
Procedures for the implementation and operation of the EMS;
Procedures for checking and measuring performance of the EMS; and
Documented management review and actions to improve the EMS.
The EN16001 Documentation Toolkit contains templates of all the documents that are required for developing and implementing an EMS that meets the requirements of EN16001 and helps you achieve that goal far more quickly than if you developed the documentation from scratch.
Suitable for all organisations
This EN16001 EMS environmental management system toolkit is suitable for all organisations. The policy and procedure templates are generally applicable, across all industries and are technology-agnostic.
Energy and Environment
Many organisations implement an EN16001 energy management system at the same time as an ISO14001 Environmental Management System. The ITGP toolkits for these two management systems have many elements in common and are designed for easy integration.
