ISO 50001 Energy Management Systems defines requirements for third-party certification. This book serves as a practical manual how to implement ISO 50001 following an approach of integrated management. A broad scope of background theories and practical examples are showing how the energy quest serves as a stepping stone for success on national and international markets--explaining not only what has to be done, but also how to do it, and even why it is reasonable. Nearly all business domains are affected by energy management: for example, accounting and managerial accounting, operations, supply chain management and logistics, procurement, facility management, strategic planning, and business ethics. Thus, the book outlines the foundations of a comprehensive energy-oriented business administration or energy management as business function. Academic teachers can cover the field in their respective classes to endow the students with this know-how, boosting the student's careers and advancing the companies their students will work for. The overall challenge of energy increases the complexity of management considerably, but powerful new information technology tools are also available. Examples are in-memory databases, cloud and mobile computing, Big Data, or smart metering. They are contributing to energy efficiency as part of corporate sustainability.
