AGENCY:
The Department of Energy
(DOE) invites public comment on the
renewal of collection of information that
DOE is developing for submission to the
Office of Management and Budget
(OMB) pursuant to the Paperwork
Reduction Act of 1995. The renewal of
the collection of information relates to
DOE’s Superior Energy Performance
certification and 50001 Ready
recognition programs.
DATES: Comments regarding this
proposed information collection must
be received on or before September 7,
2021. If you anticipate difficulty in
submitting comments within that
period, contact the person listed in

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Comments
are invited on: (a) Whether the approved
collection of information remains
necessary for the proper performance of
the functions of the agency, including
whether the information shall have
practical utility; (b) the accuracy of the
agency’s estimate of the burden of the
proposed collection of information,
including the validity of the
methodology and assumptions used; (c)
ways to enhance the quality, utility, and
clarity of the information to be
collected; and (d) ways to minimize the
burden of the collection of information
on respondents.
This information collection request
contains:
(1) OMB No.: 1910–5177.
(2) Information Collection Request
Title: Department of Energy Superior
Energy Performance 50001 Program
Certification and 50001 Ready
Recognition Information Collection
Request;
(3) Type of Request: Renewal;
(4) Purpose: This Information
Collection Request applies to the
Department of Energy (DOE) voluntary
ISO 50001 programs for industrial
facilities: Superior Energy Performance
50001TM (SEP 50001TM) and 50001
ReadyTM recognition. The information
being collected remains necessary to
ensure that DOE’s ISO 50001 programs
continue to deliver energy benefits and
value to program participants. SEP
50001 is an energy efficiency
certification and recognition program
for industrial facilities demonstrating
energy management excellence with ISO
50001 and third-party verification of
energy savings. 50001 Ready recognition
is a self-attestation of the
implementation of an ISO 50001 energy
management system without the need
for external audits.
SEP 50001 builds on the ISO 50001
energy management system standard
and provides a rigorous, internationally
recognized business process for
companies to continually improve their
energy performance. The SEP thirdparty verification of energy performance
improvement is unique in the
marketplace and assists to differentiate

certified companies from their
competitors. This request for
information consists of a voluntary data
collection process for SEP participation:
To manage participation, track
certification cycles, and relay the costs
and benefits of SEP certification to
industry. 50001 Ready collects a lesser
amount of self-attested information to
manage and track recognition cycles and
to recognize the achievements of its
participants.
Four types of information are
collected from SEP 50001’s primary
participants: (1) Background data,
including contact information and basic
information about the facility’s
experience with energy management—
collected in the SEP 50001 Application
Form; (2) Basic facility information
about its energy use, energy
consumption, and energy performance
indicators—also collected in the SEP
50001 Application Form; (3)
Information on energy performance
improvement in certified facilities—
collected in the SEP 50001 Energy
Performance Improvement Report.
50001 Ready collects only a subset of
the same types of information in
categories (1), (2), and (3), and without
the need for external audit. The
program’s online system, the 50001
Ready Navigator, enables participants to
submit this information.
Background data will primarily be
used to track basic information about
SEP and 50001 Ready participants and
identify opportunities to provide
participants with technical assistance.
Basic information about a facility’s
energy use, energy consumption, and
energy performance indicators will be
used to administer each program.
Information on energy performance
improvement will be used by DOE to
manage and track participation cycles,
and to track the results of participating
in SEP and 50001 Ready. Responses to
the DOE’s Information Collection
Request will be voluntary.

Respondents: 233;
(6) Annual Estimated Number of
Total Responses: 233;
(7) Annual Estimated Number of

Recordkeeping Cost Burden: $25,120.
