11 IMPORTANCE OF STANDARDS Standards are created by the very organizations that need to use them, and are created in an open, consensus-driven process. Standards will make efficiency measures more reliable and competitive in energy management and public administration Are used for conformity assessment to enhance confidence in products, systems, processes and services Allow products to be supplied and used across different markets, facilitating regulatory compliance and enhancing market access opportunities Can be used by all 3 tiers Government referenced in Regulations to National, Provincial and Local Government 11

12 GREEN SUPPORTING SANS SANS SUPPORTING ENERGY EFFICIENCY MEASURES AND A GREEN ENVIRONMENT: SANS 1307, Domestic solar heaters SANS 6210, Domestic solar water heaters Mechanical qualification tests SANS , Domestic solar water heaters Part 1: Thermal performance using an outdoor test method SANS 1352 The installation, maintenance, replacement and repair of domestic air source water heating pump systems SANS 10106, The installation, maintenance, repair and replacement of domestic solar water heating systems 12

13 GREEN SUPPORTING SANS SANS SUPPORTING ENERGY EFFICIENCY MEASURES AND A GREEN ENVIRONMENT: SANS 941 Energy efficiency for electronic appliances - labeling requirements referencing 16 standards specifying requirements for commonly used household appliances SANS 1935, Bio-diesel SANS 833:2011 Bio-diesel Quality management system Producer requirements SANS 1164 Denatured fuel ethanol for blending with gasolines for use as automotive spark-ignition engine fuel 13

14 GREEN SUPPORTING SANS SANS SUPPORTING ENERGY EFFICIENCY MEASURES AND A GREEN ENVIRONMENT: SANS Uniform provisions concerning the approval of vehicles with regards to specific requirements for the electric power train SANS , Rotating electrical machines Part 30: Efficiency classes of single-speed, three-phase, cage-induction motors (IE-code) SANS , Rotating electrical machines Part 31: Selection of energyefficient motors including variable speed applications - Application guidewind turbines IEC series adopted as SANS Alternative fuel vehicles ISO standards adopted SANS 204 and SANS 10400XA Energy efficiency in buildings 14

16 SANS/ISO 50001:2011 ENERGY MANAGEMENT SYSTEM 16

17 SANS/ISO WHAT IS ISO ISO 50001:2011 Energy management systems Requirements for use, is a voluntary International Standard developed by ISO; ISO gives organizations the requirements for an energy management system; The standard could influence up to 60% of the world s energy use; and ISO establish a framework for industrial plants, commercial, institutional, governmental facilities and entire organizations to manage energy. 17

18 SANS/ISO THE STANDARD IS INTENDED TO ACCOMPLISH THE FOLLOWING Assist organizations in making better use of their existing energy consuming assets; Provide a framework for promoting energy efficiency throughout the supply chain; Facilitate energy management improvements for greenhouse gas emissions reduction projects; Assist facilities in evaluating and prioritizing the implementation of new energyefficient technologies; Promote energy management best practices and reinforced good energy management behaviours; and Will facilitate companies to achieve energy demand reductions, for example, mining and industry to reduce there energy demand up to 15% by

19 SANS/ISO WHY IS ISO 5001 IMPORTANT Energy is critical and can be a major cost to organizations; Individual organizations cannot control energy but can improve the way they manage energy; Improved energy performance can provide benefits through identifying energy sources and then reducing both energy cost and consumption; Organizations will also make positive contributions towards reducing depletion of energy recourses. 19

20 SANS/ISO ISO HOW DOES IT WORK ISO is based on the ISO management system model ISO follows the Plan-Do-Check-Act process for continual improvement of the energy management system ISO provides a frame work of requirements enabling organizations to: Develop a policy for more efficient use of energy Fix targets and objectives to meet the policy Use data to better the understanding and make decisions concerning energy use and consumption Measure the results Review the effectiveness of the policy Can be implemented individually or integrated with or MS 20

21 SANS/ISO ISO PLAN-DO- CHECK - ACT Plan: conduct an energy review and establish the baseline, energy performance indicators (EnPLs), objective, targets and action plans necessary to deliver results in accordance with opportunities to improve energy performance and the organizations energy policy; Do: implement the energy management action plans Check: monitor and measure processes and key characteristics of its operation that determine performance against the energy policy and objectives and report the results Act: take actions to continually improve energy performance and EnMS 21

22 SANS/ISO ESTABLISH A CERTIFICATION SCHEME FOR ISO 50001: CONDUCTED TWO STAGE 1 CERTIFICATION AUDITS 3 ACCREDITATION BY FEBRUARY

23 CONCLUSION Energy efficiency is known as the forgotten fuel start harvesting this forgotten fuel for a better energy future. CONTACT: PIETER HAASBROEK t: C:
