NATIONAL FOREWORD

This Indian Standard which is identical with ISO 50002 : 2014 ‘Energy audits - Requirements with guidance for use’ issued by the International Organization for Standardization (ISO) was adopted by the Bureau of Indian Standards on the recommendation of the Energy Management Sectional Committee and approval of the Mechanical Engineering Division Council.

This standard specifies the process requirements for carrying out an energy audit in relation to energy performance. It is applicable to all types of establishments and organizations, and all forms of energy and energy use. It also specifies the principles of carrying out energy audits, requirements for the common processes during energy audits, and deliverables for energy audits.

This standard does not address the requirements for selection and evaluation of the competence of bodies providing energy audit services, and it does not cover the auditing of an organization’s energy management system, as these are described in IS/ISO 50003 : 2014 ‘Energy management systems - Requirements for bodies providing audit and certification of energy management systems’.

The text of ISO Standard has been approved as suitable for publication as an Indian Standard without deviations. Certain conventions are, however, not identical to those used in Indian Standards. Attention is particularly drawn to the following:

a) Wherever the words ‘International Standard’ appear referring to this standard, they should be read as ‘Indian Standard’.

b) Comma (,) has been used as a decimal marker while in Indian Standards the current practice is to use a point (.) as the decimal marker.
