After a decade-long evolution, the use of coal for energy production is growing again. Carbon is still an important source of energyin Europe, covering about one-fourth of electricity production. There are plans to open around 50 new coal-fired power plants.But the continued use of coal has a price, we pay all, mainly with our health can be affected by excessive environmental pollutionToday more and more emphasis on the concept of „green economy” that should be reflected in improving people’s lives througheffective management of environmental issues and reducing environmental risks Thus, through the present paper we aim to highlightthose aspects that would allow the improvement of the environmental performance of coal-fired power plants in Romania byimproving the efficiency and effectiveness of the Environmental Management System (EMS) as a component of the Integrated ManagementSystem along with the Quality, Health and Safety Management System . We start from the premise that the developmentand implementation of an effective and efficient environmental management system (EMS) becomes a priority for all companies inthe field , especially since their activities based on coal burning , are considered among the most polluting.

In various studies revealed that the ISO 14001 Environmental Management System into an integrated environmental management system that is considered capable of improving environmental performance and financial performance. This study aims to analyze the application of ISO 14001 Environmental Management System certification on environmental performance and company performance. The sample in this study was one of the power plants in Indonesia that was ISO 14001 certified in 2015. This study used annual data from the period 2013 to 2014. The main method used was the Gap Analysis Tool. , The results using a checklist show that, in general, the clause requirements have an average value of 50% - 74% the organization still has to fix the SML for preparation of ISO 14001-2015 the inspection process and the clause have an average value, 32% clause, the planning clause has an average value of 77%, the management review has an average value 57% and the overall average value in accordance with ISO 14001-2015 requirements is 55%. based on the characteristics of the sample company, the company needs to improve its inspection and management review so that it can improve the operational management of the environment better.

<p><em>This study aims to analyze the effect of environmental management system, environmental performance, size, profitability and leverage to greenhouse gas emissions disclosure in Indonesia companies. To measure the extent of carbon emission disclosure used checklist that was developed based on the information request sheets provided by the carbon disclosure project (CDP). The population of this study was all basic industrial and chemical companies listed on the Indonesia Stock Exchange during 2014-2016. Sampling method used in this research is purposive sampling method so that obtained samples based on the criteria as many as 60 research samples. Type of data used is secondary data. Data analysis used descriptive statistic, Classical Assumption Test, Multiple Linear Regression Analysis, Goodness of Fit Test, Coefficient of Determination Analysis (R²) and Hypothesis Testing (t test). </em><em>The results of 5 hypothesis, 4 hypothesis accepted and 1 hypothesis rejected. Variable Environmental Management System, Environmental Performance and Size have positive and significant and Leverage have negative and significant impact to carbon emission disclosure. While profitability have positive but not significant impact in basic industrial and chemical companies in Indonesia. Based on Adjusted R Square is seen that the value of coefficient of determination is 0.663, it means that the Greenhouse Gas Emission Disclosure can be explained by independent variable equal to 66,3% and 33,7% explained by other variable.</em><strong></strong></p><em></em>

Nowadays one of the most common organizational eco-innovations in energy companies is introducing environmental management systems (EMS). Nevertheless, the issues of environmental and economic efficiency of EMS remain controversial. The purpose of this work is to develop a methodology for assessing the effectiveness of environmental management systems of Russian energy companies certified in accordance with ISO 14001. Since Russian companies do not have EMAS conformance certificates, the issues of the effectiveness of environmental management systems under the European Environmental Management Scheme and eco-audit were not considered in this study. The study is based on the data from annual corporate reports of the largest energy companies of the Russian Federation, which have the organizational and legal form of public joint-stock companies. The selection criteria were: i) the existence of an integrated management system, which is based on a certified environmental management system; ii) the presence in the corporate reports of data on the environmental performance of the company, at least a few years before and after the introduction of EMS, sufficient for statistical analysis using a two depended samples T-test. The study has shown that the application of ISO 14001 can be considered as a condition for the development of eco-innovation, as a well-designed environmental management strategy covers the whole range of issues related to innovative development, modernization and competitiveness. The introduction of EMS is also associated with an increase in the information transparency of the entire production system of the company, which is also a positive point in terms of the development of innovative processes.
