ISO 50001: Regulatory obligation or strategic opportunity?
Although voluntary in principle, ISO 50001 certification becomes a strategic option for regulatory compliance. Since 2025, regulations (DDADUE law) impose differentiated obligations based on your consumption level.
| Your annual consumption | Regulatory obligation | How Wattnow helps you |
|---|---|---|
| > 23.6 GWh | Mandatory implementation of an ISO 50001 certified EnMS. | Our platform is the ideal operational tool to build and maintain your EnMS, centralizing all data and simplifying action management. |
| Between 2.75 and 23.6 GWh | Mandatory energy assessment every 4 years. | ISO 50001 is a valuable alternative. Wattnow provides permanent data, analysis and reports that greatly facilitate the certification process. |
Non-compliance with these obligations may result in an administrative fine of up to 2% of turnover (4% in case of recurrence). Beyond financial penalties, your CSR credibility and access to certain markets may be impacted. Discover how our compliance module secures you.
