The International Organization for Standardization (ISO) has recently released a new standard for energy savings in organizations, ISO 50047:2016 Energy savings � Determination of energy savings in organizations. This standard provides organizations with guidelines and processes to measure and report energy savings accurately.

The standard is designed to help organizations of all sizes measure energy savings and report these savings in a clear and consistent manner. The standard outlines the process and criteria required to measure and report energy savings, helping ensure that organizations are making energy savings claims that are accurate and reliable.

The standard contains two main components: the energy savings measurement and reporting protocol, and the energy savings calculation method.

The energy savings measurement and reporting protocol outlines the steps involved in measuring and reporting energy savings. This includes defining the scope of the energy savings project, setting up the baseline, collecting data, and calculating the energy savings.

The energy savings calculation method outlines the mathematical methodology used to calculate energy savings. This includes determining the baseline energy consumption, calculating the energy savings, and reporting the energy savings in an appropriate format.

The standard also provides guidance on how to maintain energy savings in the long-term and how to adapt the energy savings process to different types of organizations.

The ISO 50047:2016 Energy savings � Determination of energy savings in organizations standard is an important tool for organizations of all sizes to accurately measure and report energy savings. By following this standard, organizations can ensure that their energy savings claims are reliable and accurate. This will help organizations make more informed decisions about energy efficiency and ensure that they maximize their energy savings.

Overall, ISO 50047:2016 Energy savings � Determination of energy savings in organizations is an important tool for organizations to accurately measure and report energy savings. By following this standard, organizations can ensure that their energy savings claims are reliable and accurate, and maximize their energy savings.
