Course Description

ISO 50001 is the international standard for energy management systems (EnMS) — the world's common language for managing energy. It defines the requirements for establishing, implementing and improving a system that reduces energy consumption, improves energy efficiency and cuts energy costs, in any organization, of any size, in any sector.

This course presents the requirements of ISO 50001:2018 in detail, with examples for better understanding, following the structure of the standard:

  • Context of the organization — internal and external issues, interested parties and their needs and expectations, and the scope of the energy management system

  • Leadership — top management involvement and support, the energy policy, roles, responsibilities and authorities, and the energy management team

  • Planning — the analytical heart of ISO 50001:

    • Risks and opportunities, objectives, energy targets and action plans

    • The energy review — analysing energy use and consumption, identifying significant energy uses (SEUs) and the variables that affect them, and finding opportunities to improve energy performance

    • Energy performance indicators (EnPIs), energy baselines (EnBs), and planning the collection of energy data

  • Support — resources, competence, awareness, communication, and the documented information required by the standard

  • Operation — operational controls for energy performance, energy-efficient design, and energy performance considerations in procurement

  • Performance evaluation — monitoring and measuring energy performance, addressing significant deviations, internal audits of the EnMS, and the management review

  • Improvement — nonconformities, corrections and corrective actions, and the continual improvement of both the management system and energy performance itself

Who this course is for

  • Energy managers, energy engineers and facility managers responsible for energy performance

  • Professionals implementing an EnMS or preparing their organization for ISO 50001 certification

  • Sustainability and environmental professionals connecting energy management to emissions reduction and decarbonization targets

  • Auditors and consultants working with energy management systems

  • Practitioners of other ISO standards (ISO 9001, ISO 14001, ISO 45001) becoming familiar with ISO 50001

After completing the course you will have a clear picture of how an energy management system is shaped, what its main elements are, what documentation it requires and how to implement it. And if your organization is pursuing ISO 50001 certification, the course prepares you to face the certification audit successfully.

Who am I?
I’ve been working in the field of standards, auditing, and certification since the early 2000s. Over the years, I’ve contributed to hundreds of projects across various industries and disciplines. Today, I work with RIGCERT, an accredited certification body based in Europe.

What do I do?
I translate the knowledge and best practices from international standards and recognized compliance frameworks into clear, practical language — to help individuals and organizations improve.

How do I teach?

I design and record every course myself. You will be learning from a human instructor with real-world auditing experience — not from AI-generated content. Since launching my first course in 2016, my focus has always been on extracting the core ideas from complex subjects and delivering them in a clear, concise format. I only build and publish courses that I myself would take.

What are my interests?
My work spans quality management, information security, data protection and privacy, artificial intelligence governance, risk management, business continuity, occupational health and safety, environmental management, energy management, compliance, food safety, and others.

Отличный, структурированный курс по ISO 50001! Материал подан доступно, практические примеры и тесты очень помогли закрепить знания. Единственный минус-курс полностью на Английском языке. (Желательно было бы если материал был и на Азербайджанском языке тоже)

By Julia Masalkina on 11/7/2024

To prepare for my job interview which requires knowledge of the ISO 50001 standard, I was looking for a compact and informative online course. This course gives a very-well structured overview of the standard. It's provided by a professional in this field, which is definitely very valuable. I would definitely recommend it if you start building your knowledge of the 50k standards.

I am currently doing an assignment (management discipline) about "Power consumption increase in Servers after surge of AI adoption", It helps me understand the basics of power management - and is an standard so can be applied across organizations of various backgrounds/scale.

The course was a good overview of ISO 50001:2018. Future interested parties should note that this class does not share content directly from the standard document (one would still have to buy that separately to see it). Nor does it provide shared examples of what was considered in compliance...as it is an overview class. Again, the course itself is a very thorough and good general overview of the standard.

The course provided a great overview of the ISO 50001 energy management system. I have been working with the US DOE 50001 Ready program and wanted to see how ISO 50001 compared. This course was at the perfect level. You won't learn how to implement ISO 50001 from this course, but should have a good understanding what it covers.

By Harold Henry Cabanilla on 7/21/2021

Discussion is a bit too fast and real world examples are very limited. If you want to have just an overview of ISO 50001 content, then you can take this course. But if you want to take this course to prepare for implementing ISO 50001 requirements in your company, then this course will not be for you.

The course was very informative for me as I wanted introduction to the subject. The instructor us knowlidgible and breaks the course material in small sections that are easily followed. I have totally enjoyed it and id not get bored at all!

By Benjamin Zaicaner on 10/20/2019

Very good course, covering most of the theorectical concepts related to the ISO50001 and development of Energy Management Systems. To improve it even more, I suggest that would be suitable to include an example of development of a real EnMs from the very beginning until the end, applied onto a real situation or industry if possible.

By Yazan Ali Altahtamouni on 3/16/2019

it was a helpful and well organized information, it enrich my experience and one of the perfect introduction to ISO 50001. i highly recommend to take the course for the people where engaged in energy management and energy Auditing.

By Şener Ungan on 4/28/2018

The course is very informative. Started without having any knowledge about ISO 50001. Now I feel I can easily conduct an internal or external audit or lead a team for establishing Energy Managemnet System according to ISO 50001. Çok bilgi verici bir eğitim. ISO 50001 hakkında fikrim olmadan başladım, ancak şimdi rahatlıkla bir denetim yapabileceğime ya da ISO 50001'e göre bir Enerji Yönetim Sistemi kurmak üzere bir takıma liderlik edebileceğime inanıyorum.
