What is the ISO 50001 standard?
ISO 50001 is an international standard that defines the requirements for an Energy Management System (EnMS). It provides your organisation with a structured framework to manage and continuously improve your energy performance, regardless of your size or sector.
Certification is open to all companies, whether they simply wish to structure their energy approach or pursue official certification.
Why implement energy management?
Implementing an energy management system in your company is a major asset for your business.
Compliance
Energy regulations are evolving and becoming increasingly demanding. Anticipate these new obligations.
Financial performance
Identify actions to improve your energy performance and achieve substantial financial gains.
Corporate culture
Engage your entire company in your energy efficiency strategy: your employees, shareholders, and suppliers.
Modernisation
You are entering a process of long-term improvement and optimisation of your productive assets.
Management
You structure your energy efficiency approach, benefit from a clear, prioritised action plan, and set consumption reduction targets.

Regulatory obligation in 2027
The DDADUE law (Diverses Dispositions d'Adaptation au Droit de l'Union Européenne), which came into force on 1 October 2025, transposes the European Energy Efficiency Directive into French law and strengthens companies' obligations in this area. It establishes two thresholds based on actual energy consumption: - from 2.75 GWh/year, a regulatory energy audit (NF EN 16247 standard) becomes mandatory every 4 years; - above 23.6 GWh/year, the company must implement and certify an energy management system compliant with the ISO 50001 standard before 11 October 2027. Companies already ISO 50001 certified are exempt from the mandatory energy audit, provided the certification scope covers at least 80% of their final energy consumption. ISO 50001 certification thus establishes itself as a structured and lasting response to these new regulatory requirements.
Our ISO 50001 support
We offer several stages, depending on your needs and your energy maturity:
Energy diagnostic
A mini audit to evaluate your energy maturity at both documentary and operational levels. Establish a precise assessment of your current approach to better design the support for implementing your energy management system.
Training
This is the step that will allow you to understand and grasp the ISO 50001 standard with confidence. The strength of this training is that it is designed to be engaging and inclusive.
Support
The implementation of your energy management system, based on what already exists, through a flexible and personalised approach that takes your constraints into account.
Internal audit
The evaluation of your energy management system to prepare you for the certification audit and obtain certification. This audit aims to be objective and impartial, while providing recommendations as part of our consulting role.
Workshops
Specific workshops on the chapters of the standard where you feel you need training, support, or advice.

This is the very essence of the ISO 50001 standard.
Its purpose is to give value to the fact that you have organised yourself to reduce your energy consumption. It requires both a detailed analysis of your energy consumption and the planning of actions to reduce it.
Among the criteria for obtaining ISO 50001 certification, you must raise awareness of energy efficiency best practices among your teams and your subcontractors. You must also draw up and monitor an action plan to optimise your energy consumption. Finally, you must introduce energy efficiency criteria when ordering new equipment.
Yes, many actions can significantly reduce a company's production costs without CAPEX, by acting on the energy bill.
A large share of companies' energy consumption comes from waste that can easily be avoided. This means misuse of machines, handling errors, poorly configured equipment or systems left running unnecessarily.
It is possible to act quickly on these levers by changing employees' working habits, without mobilising any financial investment.
The ISO 50001 standard provides for raising awareness of energy efficiency among your teams and your subcontractors, as well as documenting ways of using your systems so that they waste less energy.
This is how many companies achieve 10% to 30% energy savings without CAPEX.
The energy management solutions offered by Qualisteo are specifically designed to work anywhere in the world. They are suited both to a single site and to a global group.
Lynx sub-meters comply with all international certifications and can therefore be installed in any country.
The Wattseeker energy management software is particularly suited to groups with entities all over the world: energy data can be viewed globally, for a country or for one specific site.
Our team of Energy Managers, engineers specialised in energy efficiency, supports groups present all over the world, some with hundreds of sites across every continent.
Qualisteo starts with an energy diagnosis, in the form of a mini audit assessing the company's maturity in terms of documentation and field practices, in order to establish a precise picture before implementing the energy management system.
Training is then offered to get to grips with the ISO 50001 standard. Next comes the heart of the support, that is the effective implementation of the energy management system. If needed, an energy sub-metering network and an energy management software can be deployed.
An internal audit helps prepare for the certification audit, with recommendations. Finally, specific workshops can be organised on the chapters of the standard that require particular training.
