The purpose of this study was to carry out an energy diagnosis in a public passenger transport company located in the city of Medellín to establish a baseline of energy consumption, identify critical processes, and propose improvement actions that enhance energy efficiency in its operations in line with the ISO 50001:2018 standard. To achieve this, the average monthly energy consumption was analyzed, the processes with the greatest impact were categorized, and the indirect CO2e emissions associated with energy use were estimated. The analysis allowed for the proposal of improvement strategies aimed at optimizing the energy load of electric buses, modernizing lighting systems, and strengthening the energy culture among staff. Furthermore, the study contributes to the achievement of the sustainable development goals by promoting a more efficient use of energy and helping to reduce the carbon footprint within the operation. These findings demonstrate that the implementation of energy management systems (EnMS) provides a solid foundation for future research that aligns with the ISO 50001 standard.
