Standard for Energy Management system EN16001
Since 2001 Danish industries have had a unique opportunity for managing energy consumption and costs
by introducung a certified Energy Management System according to the National Standard DS2403. Following the
launch of the first international standard EN16001 on energy management systems in July 2009, the Danish standard was outphased by January 1st 2010.
Though the EN16001 have strong links to the DS2403, industries in compliance with the Danish Standard will need to introduce minor changes in order
to comply with the new standard. EXIMA has co-authored a publication (in Danish) which compares the two standards outlining major differences to
be addressed when adapting existing management systems to EN16001:2009.
