Meeting the energy challenge
06 August 2013
Today pumps consume 10% of the world’s electrical power, so focusing on optimising the amount of energy they use makes sense both from an environmental and an energy-saving perspective.

Making sure the most appropriate pump option is selected for a specific task can mean an 80%+ energy saving, according to Grundfos Pumps. The company's Meet the energy challenge NOW portal (energy.grundfos.com) has become an umbrella for a broad range of information that encompasses: facts on pumps, future legislative demands, technological advances, broadcast centre, and more.
Sustainability is one important cornerstone on which Grundfos has built its business, so presenting the facts about pumping and how to improve efficiencies, it says, is not just a business, but a way a life.
