ISO 50001 is a globally recognised certification that outlines the requirements for implementing an energy management system. It offers organisations a framework to enhance energy performance.
Aston Martin Aramco’s goal for ISO 50001 is to improve energy performance, increase energy efficiency, and reduce energy consumption and associated costs.
An energy management system controls the energy consumption at the AMR Technology Campus at Silverstone and is designed to ensure there is a systematic approach to continuously improving energy performance.
In order to satisfy the standard, Aston Martin Aramco completed three audits over the course of 2023 with the final audit taking place in December 2023. The certificate was issued to the team in January 2024.
Ben Fitzgerald, Operations Director, Aston Martin Aramco Formula One® Team, said:
“This is another example of Aston Martin Aramco making a positive difference for the future and changing the perceptions of our industry in line with the FIA’s Environmental Strategy 2020-2030.
“Committing to sustainability and implementing initiatives is an important step towards the evolution of the motorsport industry and protecting the planet.
“The long-term benefits of achieving ISO 50001 include improved energy efficiency, better financial performance, risk mitigation, and cost savings.
“Through our responsible business strategy, Make A Mark, we are committed to driving positive progress for the planet and our people. ISO 50001 also reinforces our commitment to our FIA Three Star Environmental Accreditation and the future topics of the FIA’s sustainability working group.”
