• Time and again, industrial energy efficiency has been demonstrated to be cost effective while having a positive effect on productivity

• Despite this, energy efficiency improvements with very favorable payback periods often do not get implemented

• Even projects that are implemented may not be sustained due to lack of supportive operational and maintenance practices

Problem: Energy efficiency is not integrated into daily management practices.

Solution: Staff at all levels within an organization need to be engaged in the management of energy on an ongoing basis.

Value of Energy Management

Energy management requires an organization to shift from a project-by-project approach to one of continual improvement in energy performance


• Significant (10-20 percent) improvements in energy performance

can be achieved through operational changes.

• Actively managing energy requires an organizational change in

culture.

• Top management needs to be engaged in the management of

energy on an ongoing basis.

• Provides a context for informed decisions concerning proposed

energy efficiency projects, including new technologies.

• At its core, energy management requires a group of people to

change their behavior and sustain the change.

Scope of energy management


Key Definitions from ISO 50001

3.15

energy use

manner or kind of application of energy

EXAMPLE Ventilation, lighting, heating, cooling, transportation, processes, production lines.

Energy use refers to what purpose the energy is applied. The use of “manner” in the definition is related to the way that people apply the energy, so could include human interaction and therefore could be improved with training, for example.

3.7

energy consumption

quantity of energy applied

Energy consumption represents “how much” as it relates to energy use above. This is a separate concept from the energy use but these related terms appear together throughout the standard


Key Definitions from ISO 50001

3.12 energy performance

measurable results related to energy efficiency(3.8), energy use (3.28) and energy

consumption (3.7)

NOTE 1 In the context of energy management systems, results can be measured

against the organization’s energy policy, objectives, targets and other energy

performance requirements

NOTE 2 Energy performance is one component of the performance of the energy

management system

3.13 energy performance indicator

EnPI

quantitative value or measure of energy performance, as defined by the

organization

NOTE EnPIs could be expressed as a simple metric, ratio or a more complex model.

The key to understanding the intent of the standard is that we are trying to improve

energy use, energy efficiency, and energy consumption, which is captured in ISO

50001 as the concept of energy performance.


Implementing ISO 50001

• Designed to be used independently, yet can be aligned or integrated

with other management systems (e.g., ISO 9001 and ISO 14001).

• Certification is not required to benefit from use of ISO 50001

• Does not prescribe specific performance criteria or results with

respect to energy.

• Needs enabling policies to realize its global potential for GHG

emissions reductions

• Requires a skilled energy management workforce to implement the

EnMS and conduct conformance audits

In the US, the enabling policy for ISO 50001 is

called Superior Energy Performancecm


What is Superior Energy Performance?

A market-based, ANSI/ANAB-accredited certification program

that provides industrial and commercial facilities with a roadmap

for achieving continual improvement in energy performance.

Goals:

• Drive continual improvement in energy performance

• Develop a transparent system to verify these improvements and to certify the effectiveness of the EnMS

• Support and build the energy management workforce

• Support greater energy efficiency across industrial and commercial markets

• Encourage broad participation

Superior Energy Performance for

industry will be launched

nationwide in October 2012.

SEP-Commercial Buildings

Is now in demonstration.


Certification Requirements:

An ANSI/ANAB-accredited Verification Body will conduct a third-party audit to verify that the following requirements are met:

1. Energy Management System conformance to ISO 50001 Energy Management System Standard.

2. Energy performance improvement, as specified by pathway and sector

ISO 50001 Components in place: • Top Management • Energy Team • Policy • Planning • Baseline • Performance Metrics

Superior Energy Performance

Single facility ISO 50001 conformance with verified energy performance improvement

ISO 50001

ISO 50001 is a foundational tool that any organization can use to manage energy.

System Assessment Standards

Standards address:

• Organizing an assessment

• Conducting an assessment

• Analyzing the data collected and developing

efficiency recommendations

• Reporting and documentation

Purchase standards and guidance documents from ASME for $35 (print or digital):

• http://www.asme.org/search.aspx?searchText=EA&#page=1,category=STANDARD

Available Standards: • Pumping (ISO WD 14414)

• Compressed Air (ISO DIS

11011)

• Steam

• Process Heating

Assessment standards for specific energy systems

provide immediate opportunity for energy performance

improvement in many facilities.

Use of the standards is not required for certification but

will help plants define a pathway for achieving energy

savings.

http://www.asme.org/search.aspx?searchText=EA&


In addition to the general requirements of ISO 50001

facilities seeking SEP certification need to:

1. Establish EnMS Scope and Boundaries at the facility level that

include all energy sources

2. Collect data sufficient to establish a baseline year (12 month

period)

3. Establish significant energy uses that are truly representative of

facility operations and energy consumption

– Improve monitoring and measurement of these uses

– Establish robust operational controls and training

4. Identify Superior Energy Performance Indicators (SEnPIs) to

accurately track improvements in energy performance

5. Document methodologies used to support decisions made

during the planning process

Key Success Factors for Certifying to Superior Energy Performance


6. Prioritize and implement action plans / improve operational

processes to meet or exceed SEP energy performance

improvement requirements

7. Track, report on, and evaluate the effectiveness of action plans

toward meeting energy performance improvement requirements

8. Use sector-specific Measurement and Verification (M&V)

Protocol to determine SEP energy performance improvement

9. Plan beyond the current certification cycle- this is a long term

commitment to re-certify every three years, not an isolated

accomplishment

10. Prepare for a third-party audit of both EnMS and energy

performance

ANSI MSE 50021- Superior Energy Performance — Additional Requirements for Energy Management Systems


Measurement and Verification Protocol

The SEP Industrial Measurement and Verification (M&V)

Protocol is a methodology to:

1. Verify results and impact from implementing the energy

management standard.

2. Track energy performance changes over time for the overall

facility.

3. Document energy performance normalized to production.


ISO 50001 and Continual Improvement

• ISO 50001 requires continual improvement in an organization’s

energy management system and its energy performance

• ISO 50001 requires an organization “to plan operations and

maintenance activities which are related to its significant energy

uses”

• In the language of ISO 50001, an “action plan” is the equivalent of a

project

• BUT, not all activities related to operational control of significant

energy uses will require action plans

• Conducting M&V in the ISO 50001 continual energy performance

improvement context requires consideration of both:

1. The results from implementing of action plans (projects) and

2. Any improvements in energy performance resulting from the ongoing

operational control of significant energy uses


ISO 50001 and Continual Improvement

Example:

A facility identifies steam as a significant energy use, but has made

many energy efficiency upgrades already, including boilers and a steam

trap maintenance program.

– ISO 50001 requires that the facility demonstrate operational

control for the entire steam system, which may be as simple as

using existing energy performance data more effectively and

training staff on existing operational procedures.

– Implementation of operational control will likely produce some

additional improvement in energy performance that is ongoing-

not project specific.

Training and skill are required for appropriate application of ISO 50001 and

verification of conformance and resulting energy performance improvement.
