ISO 50001 certification: pay less TURPE

Are you an electro-intensive manufacturer? Don’t forget ISO 50001 certification: it entitles you to a discount on the tariff for use of public electricity networks!

Do you fall into the electro-intensive category, consuming more than 50 GWh of electricity per year, for example in the paper, metallurgy, chemical or cement industries? Your TURPE rate is reduced by 20% to 90%, depending on the case, if you have ISO 50001 certification.

This certification will be awarded if your energy management system complies with the principles of ISO 50001, so that within five years you can achieve an energy performance target with indicators defined as the ratio of energy consumption to a unit of production.

 

You’ll need to demonstrate to the authorities that your energy savings are real.

To do this, you’ll need to measure consumption before and after the work, under the same conditions.

An exercise that requires rigor and method, and one that AFNOR Energies Ingénierie can carry out for you thanks to its expertise in measurement and verification (M&V) plans.

Did you know? ISO 50001 certification also means you don’t have to undergo a statutory energy audit.
