Decarbonization guidance for energy managers in the 50001 Ready Canada Navigator

March 19, 2024 – Natural Resources Canada reports the 50001 Ready Canada Navigator tool now offers decarbonization management guidance to help energy managers make GHG emissions reductions “an integral part of their energy management system” (EMS).

(The 50001 Ready Canada program helps organizations implement an EMS that aligns with ISO 50001 “Energy management”. The Navigator, meantime, is an online platform and central component of the program; it guides organizations through the step-by-step process of setting up a comprehensive EMS.)

Navigator now provides decarbonization guidance for each of the 25 tasks required for an EMS. Additionally, Navigator offers additional Canadian resources, is free to use, and is available in both official languages.

(N.B. Following decarbonization management guidance is not required for 50001 Ready recognition. To become recognized, an organization simply attests to completing the 25 tasks and provides some basic energy use data.)

To view Decarbonization Management Guidance, select “Decarbonization” from the “Explore” menu in the upper right corner of the Navigator tool.
