In short

ISO 50001 certification in Nagoya at a glance

Ceramic kilns, heat-treatment furnaces, press lines and paint booths: much of the manufacturing around Nagoya runs hot. The Port of Nagoya also imports LNG, coal and crude oil in volume, which keeps energy near the centre of local business conversation. Customers and parent groups increasingly want to see energy per unit falling, with the evidence behind the claim. ISO 50001 supplies the discipline: energy review, baselines, performance indicators, significant energy uses, objectives, operational control, internal audit and management review. Sterling serves Nagoya from its Tokyo office, builds the baseline and tracking in Effivity, and prepares an accredited certification body's audit.

Requirements

What ISO 50001 requires

Strip away the vocabulary and ISO 50001 requires a company to prove six things about how it manages and improves energy performance.

You know where the energy goesAn energy review shows how energy is used and consumed and identifies the areas of significant energy use.
Baselines and indicators are setEnergy performance is measured against a baseline using indicators that suit your operations.
Leadership commits to improvementTop management sets an energy policy, objectives and targets, and appoints a team with authority to act.
Significant uses are controlledOperation, maintenance and design affecting significant energy uses follow defined criteria, and energy is considered in purchasing.
Data is collected and checkedEnergy data is planned, measured and analysed so that improvement can be demonstrated rather than assumed.
Performance actually improvesAction plans are delivered, results are evaluated, and the system is audited and reviewed so energy performance keeps improving.

ISO 50001 in Nagoya: questions clients ask

Why is ISO 50001 relevant to Nagoya's ceramics and machinery makers?

Firing, heat treatment, machining and paint processes use a lot of energy, and customers and parent groups increasingly ask for lower energy use per unit. A certified energy management system shows that significant energy uses are measured and improved, and gives savings claims credibility.

What does an energy baseline look like at a Nagoya plant?

A year of metered or invoiced data for each significant energy use, normalised against relevant variables such as production volume or weather. It lets the plant set indicators and targets and prove later whether changes worked. Plants that already submit energy reports to a group or authority have much of this already.
