Save Energy through the Superior Energy Performance Program

摘要

Companies are seeing impressive returns and becoming more competitive after implementing the ISO 50001 energy-management system (EnMS) standard. As of April 2014, over 7,000 sites had earned ISO 50001 certification, an increase of nearly 200% from the previous year (1). Despite this success, many firms are unsure of the internal changes necessary to meet the energy-management standard and capture the value others have realized. The U.S. Dept. of Energy's (DOE) Superior Energy Performance (SEP) program was developed, in part, to help such companies.
