16. AEMAS Target
Over 100 certified local trainers ( 20 – Philippines )
Over 100 certified local auditors ( 20 – Philippines )
Over 3,500 trained and certified energy managers ( 500 – Philippines )
Over 2,500 certified energy end-users
125 training workshops for energy managers ( 25 – Philippines )
30 technical seminars
26 AEMAS national conferences ( 3 – Philippines )
2 AEMAS international conferences
66 issues of AEMAS newsletters for over 16,000 recipients ( 150 – Phils )
AEMAS and ISO 50001
The Energy Management System of AEMAS and of ISO are similar; the only difference is that AEMAS certification requires end-users to demonstrate actual implementation of energy saving measures, which is not required under ISO 50001
AEMAS trained and certified Energy Managers will have the skills and capability to implement the AEMAS and ISO Energy Management Systems: the cost of ISO certification will therefore be significantly reduced for AEMAS certified companies, as they do not need to call on outside ISO consultants

The establishment of AEMAS is co-financed by the European Commission's Switch Asia Program: SWITCH Asia aims at promoting Sustainable Consumption and Production (SCP) in Asia. To achieve this objective, the program works simultaneously on the ground, with producers and consumers, and at the level of policy-making through supporting for formulation and implementation of SCP-related policies. It started in 2007 with a budget of €90 million for the period
