Optimal practical guide with current references

The great importance of DIN EN ISO 50001 for the German market is due not least to the requirements of the German Energy Efficiency Act, which, since its introduction in November 2023, has made it mandatory for companies above a certain level of energy consumption to have an energy management system. These and other developments in the legal context made the new edition indispensable. This book is a guide to understanding and legally compliant implementation of the standard requirements in practice. The 5th updated edition contains:

• New examples of operational implementation
  The practical examples included have been adapted to the new experiences and ensure that the explanations of the standard are even clearer and more comprehensible.
• Energy Efficiency Act
  New conditions have applied to companies since it came into force at the end of 2023: Regardless of their size, companies that have consumed more than 7.5 GWh of energy in the last three calendar years must introduce an energy management system in accordance with DIN EN ISO 50001. The guide will help you on your way to certification.
• Amortisation calculation according to DIN EN 17463
  The new German Medium-Term Energy Supply Assurance Measures Ordinance (EnSimiMaV) on energy supply contains implementation requirements for companies, which include audits and the measures derived from them — “Successful energy management in accordance with DIN EN ISO 50001" also prepares you for this.

In addition to the changed legal framework, which is addressed in the 5th edition, some of the standards in the series have also been revised: The book contains the relevant information on the changes to ISO 50003, ISO 50006, ISO 50015.
