Starting from the whole process of the system, following the principles of system management, through the implementation of a complete set of standards, norms, can be established in the enterprise a complete and effective, documented energy management system. Standards focus on the establishment and implementation of the process of control, so that the activities of enterprises, processes and elements of continuous optimization, through routine energy conservation monitoring, enterprise energy measurement and testing, enterprise energy balance statistics, enterprise energy audit, internal audit, management review, self-evaluation and other measures, constantly improve the effectiveness of continuous improvement of the energy management system, Achieve energy management policies and commitments and achieve desired energy consumption or utilization targets. Top managers lead all employees to participate in the analysis and evaluation of energy factors, quantification of energy utilization, determination of management strengths and weaknesses, analysis of related parties' demands, prediction of implementation obstacles, control and continuous improvement of the whole process of energy management, which is conducive to promoting the implementation of national laws, regulations and policies on energy and achieving the goals of energy conservation and emission reduction stipulated by the state.

2. It is conducive to the accurate implementation of internal energy saving and comprehensive utilization

Traditional energy management only solves the problems of "who" and "what" (structuring), while "how to do" and "to what extent" (operational performance) are mainly decided by the incumbent based on personal experience or even willingness, which is the main reason for the bad atmosphere such as deviation in execution or buck-passing in work. Through the energy management system to establish a set of scientific, clear, operational norms, can greatly reduce the work of randomness. At the same time, personnel at all levels of departments and positions can be clearly aware of their "what to do", "how to do", "to what extent" and other issues in energy management, which will be conducive to the decomposition, implementation and assessment of energy conservation goals, the implementation of national policies, regulations and systems, and the accurate implementation of energy conservation and comprehensive utilization within the enterprise.

3. Standardize energy-saving behavior and establish a self-discipline mechanism for energy conservation

Through the establishment, implementation and maintenance of energy management system, research and development and implementation of advanced management methods and technologies, improve the awareness of energy conservation, improve the efficient use of energy in enterprises. Through a series of solid activities such as standard constraints and norms, enterprises will gradually establish a self-discipline mechanism to improve energy efficiency and save energy.

4. Build a good platform for the application of advanced and effective energy saving technologies and methods, mining and utilizing the best energy saving practices and experiences

The implementation of energy management system standards can indeed improve the energy management performance of enterprises, but the successful implementation of energy system also needs the support of relevant technologies and methods. It aims to conserve resources and is based on efficient energy-saving products, practical energy-saving technologies and methods, and best management practices. Therefore, in the establishment and implementation of energy management system, has fully considered the use of the best feasible energy saving technology and methods, at the same time consider the use of these energy saving technology and methods of cost-effectiveness, which provides a good platform for the application of advanced and effective energy saving technology and methods, mining and use of the best energy saving practices and experience.

5. Energy management performance evaluation can be accurately implemented

The standard points out that, when feasible, energy management benchmarks should be established as the main basis for formulating energy goals and indicators and evaluating energy management performance. Energy management benchmark usually refers to the performance indicators of the industry's advanced level, the domestic advanced level and the international advanced level. These indicators should be objective, comparable, verifiable and reproducible. They should be applicable to the activities, products and services of the enterprise, consistent with its energy policy and objectives, and have good applicability, cost-effective, technologically advanced and reasonable, feasible management, and can be used as an important means of assessing overall performance.

6. Improve the efficiency and level of enterprises

Improve the overall energy efficiency and economic benefits of the enterprise. Energy management system standards will enterprise management energy perspective from a single product or enterprise unit efficiency to the energy efficiency of the whole enterprise, thus broadening the horizon, is conducive to promoting the improvement of the overall energy efficiency of the enterprise.

Ensure the compliance of enterprise energy management. Energy management system standards require enterprise energy management work in line with national energy laws and regulations, policies, standards and other requirements, so as to promote the effective implementation of relevant laws and regulations, policies, standards, etc., to promote the realization of energy saving goals.

Enhance the technical level of enterprise energy management. Energy management system requires enterprise product and process design, give full consideration to the rational use of energy, learn from the new energy saving technology and methods, the best energy saving practice and experience, promote the enterprise energy management technology level.

Establish an efficient energy management structure. The implementation of energy management system standards to solve the traditional energy management mode of "unclear responsibilities, unclear results, procedures are not standardized" and other problems, can establish and improve the mutual connection, mutual restriction and mutual promotion of energy management structure.

Improve the efficiency of enterprise energy management. The implementation of energy management system standards can help enterprises adopt low-cost or even no-cost management means to reduce energy consumption and improve energy efficiency.

7. Enhance the competitiveness of enterprises

Increase the ability to fight rising energy prices. It is helpful to save and rational use of energy, reduce the cost of energy use in the production process, improve economic efficiency, and maintain competitiveness when the energy price rises.

It helps enterprises obtain external resources. Meeting the requirements of external stakeholders (customers, governments, banks, etc.) is conducive to market development, external financing and investment attraction.

8. It is conducive to the support of various national and local incentives and fiscal and tax policies

The establishment and implementation of the energy management system, through the energy management system certification, is to obtain all kinds of national and local incentives and fiscal and tax policies to support the prerequisite. Such as green manufacturing, green factory special fund application, the condition is that the organization must have a perfect energy management system system; The establishment of energy management system is the industry energy efficiency "leader" shortlisted conditions.

9. Win a good social image

Establishing an energy system and obtaining third-party certification is easy to gain external recognition of the enterprise's energy management and self-regulation mechanism, which helps the enterprise win the reputation of energy conservation, emission reduction, environmental friendliness and sustainable development, and thus obtain a good image of social responsibility.
