In fact, for an energy management system, the most important aspect requiring management is “PEOPLE”.It is the need to interact with people that makes ‘Energy Manager’ such a challenging role.
- #5: Fortunately, there is a very useful International guideline that we can use - the energy management standard ISO 50001. 50001 creates a common internationallanguage and a systemic implementation tool for energy management. Using these guideline will ensure the implementation of a sound EnMS operation and enable continual appropriate energy performance under your leadership.
