ANSI/MSE 2000:2005 - Overview

Reduce your energy costs by as much as 30 percent…and sustain the changes.

You have systems for improving quality, meeting international standards and becoming a leaner organization.  Shouldn’t you also have a system for managing your energy?

That’s what the Energy Management System 2000:2005 (ANSI/MSE 2000:2005) can do for you.  An official standard of the American National Standards Institute (ANSI), MSE 2000:2005 provides a framework for a management system that:

  • Lowers energy costs
  • Reduces environmental impact
  • Aligns actions with organizational strategies and goals
  • Sustains productivity and savings improvements
  • Encourages continual improvement

As a management standard, ANSI/MSE 2000:2005 contains requirements for a workable system incorporating both the technical and management aspects of energy cost and consumption control.  It ensures that savings from energy projects are sustained over time and that energy efficiency and control are continually improving.

ANSI/MSE 2000:2005 is not a prescriptive standard and does not reflect regulations.  Instead, it provides a flexible and workable structure that can be tailored to fit your organization.  It is designed to easily be incorporated with the organization’s environmental management system (whether ISO 14001 registered or not).  With structured measurement and verification, it can be used to substantiate reductions in various greenhouse gas emissions from the organization’s facility and from the reduced load on the utility providing power.
