This document specifies the types of environmental performance evaluation (EPE) data, including their attributes, which can be used for evaluating the environmental performance of manufacturing systems based on the general principles described in ISO 20140‑1. It also provides recommendations for mapping the EPE data on to information models specified by IEC 62264.

This document applies to discrete, batch and continuous manufacturing.

This document is applicable to entire manufacturing facilities and to parts of a manufacturing facility.

This document specifically excludes from its scope the syntax of the data and information models, the protocols to exchange data models, the functions that can be enabled by data models, and the activities in Level 1 and Level 2.

The scope of this document also includes indicating the differences among various data and information models and the differences among various representations of environmental performance by actual data.

This document refers to the semantics of the structured data and information models used by communication protocols. The semantics explain the meaning of the attributes and of the context information.

The following are outside the scope of this document:
