The purpose of this study is an attempt to find an answer for the research question: "Does the implementation of the energy management system determine the increase in the organizational effectiveness and enable the implementation of the principles of the circular economy?" The article describes the role of the energy management systems in improving management processes in an organization. References are made to principles of the circular economy. Moreover, the development prospects of standardized management systems are presented with particular emphasis on the energy management system according to the ISO 50001 standard requirements. The results of the primary and secondary data analysis have proved that a wellplanned and implemented energy management system contributes to achieving many significant benefits, including: improving energy efficiency, reducing energy costs by reducing its consumption, reducing greenhouse gas emissions, introducing proper supervision of the organization's energy management system, ensuring compliance with energy efficiency legislation requirements, enabling integration with other management systems as well as improving the organization's image among stakeholder groups. The energy management system is an important tool supporting the process of efficient energy use in any organization and the implementation of principles of the circular economy.
