In short

ISO 50001 certification in Atlanta at a glance

Energy is a line on a distribution centre's operating budget that nobody can ignore. Lighting, refrigeration, handling equipment and climate control run through the day and night across the large sites that the Metro Atlanta Chamber associates with the region's supply-chain strength. Invest Atlanta lists Commercial Property Assessed Clean Energy among its financing tools for building upgrades, which makes a clear baseline and measured results valuable. ISO 50001 supplies the discipline behind such figures: an energy review, significant energy uses, performance indicators, objectives, action plans and management review. It is a voluntary system and not a condition of financing. Sterling's New York office builds it with facilities engineers, tracks actions in Effivity and prepares the audit by an accredited certification body. Local questions follow.

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 Atlanta: questions clients ask

Does Invest Atlanta's Commercial PACE programme require ISO 50001?

Invest Atlanta does not make it a stated condition. The programme is one of its listed development tools, while ISO 50001 is a separate, voluntary energy management system. They sit well together, because a baseline and savings tracking show what a financed upgrade achieved. Ask Invest Atlanta about eligibility and terms.

Which Atlanta sites gain most from an energy management system?

Large distribution centres, cold stores and manufacturing sites, where lighting, refrigeration, compressed air and climate control dominate the utility bill. The standard requires a review of energy use, a baseline and indicators, which point investment at the biggest savings first.
