Sustainable solutions for automotive manufacturing and aerospace, locomotive, nautical and military industries.
In the pursuit of a greener tomorrow, modern automotive manufacturers recognise the pivotal role energy efficiency plays in reducing greenhouse gas emissions.
Around 15% of global emissions come from cars throughout their life cycle. Of that, 16-40% occur during manufacturing1. Now, more than ever, every step toward decarbonising the automotive sector matters.
Sustainable pump solutions by Grundfos revolutionise water and fluid movement, enhancing energy efficiency and paving the way for a better future.
Drive to better with Grundfos.

Grundfos Optimization Services in Mobility
We can help you save water and energy, and reduce your carbon footprint.
Inefficient pumps can waste substantial amounts of energy and water. To reduce your operating costs, and help you meet sustainability targets, we offer a range of Optimization Services. Through careful analysis, Grundfos specialists help you ensure that your pumps are operating as efficiently as possible to the benefit of both the environment and your finances.
Energy Check Advanced - An easy to understand assessment of your pumps
Booking an Energy Check Advanced is easy. The analysis is performed on-site by a Grundfos specialist or trained partner and requires no downtime and minimal administration.
Our Energy Check Advanced takes data from your SCADA system or from on-site measurements. The result is a customized Energy Report detailing the energy consumption and the CO2 emissions of your installed pumps highlighting suggestions for energy savings and process optimization, to help reduce your carbon footprint and meet your sustainability targets.
Energy Audit - a comprehensive analysis of pump performance
An Energy Audit is a diagnostic tool developed by Grundfos specialists to identify excessive energy consumption. The service is based on specific pump performance measurements.
It focuses on the amount of material the pump handles and on flow variations during a short and well-defined period.
During the audit, a Grundfos specialist measures countable values such as flow and energy consumption; analogue values such as pressure, temperature, and water levels; and incident rates such as pump start/stop, and valve open/close. Based on these metrics, the audit assesses the overall efficiency of your pumps and proposes changes to improve efficiency. Final suggestions are based on calculations of potential savings, CO2 emission reductions and payback time on the up-front investment.
Optimize your pumps and reduce OPEX
Did you know that you could save hundreds of thousands every year by replacing your old and inefficient pumps? Download our short booklet to see the potential savings you could expect from energy-optimized solutions, based on real-life cases.
85% percent of a pump’s overall lifetime cost are related to its energy consumption. By energy-optimizing your pumps, you’ll save energy, improve reliability, and keep downtime at a minimum. Not only that, upgrading pumps has environmental benefits as well. Investing in green, energy-efficient solutions boosts your environmental profile and brings down carbon emissions.

Automotive manufacturing leader achieves energy efficiency gains through optimized cooling system
One of the largest manufacturers of commercial vehicles, with over 40 production facilities and 100,000 employees around the globe, was looking to take its factory up a notch to ensure it remained a global center of excellence in manufacturing conventional commercial axles and electric drive systems. To make this possible, they reached out to Grundfos to conduct an energy audit on their pumps system!
Grundfos’ energy audit unveiled potential energy efficiency gains that could be realized by modernizing a cooling water management system. A smaller, speed-controlled system and cooling tower were installed, working together with the plant’s energy managers. As a result, the factory was able to ensure a more efficient and climate-friendly manufacturing process while reducing the consumption of water and energy.
Greater efficiency & less maintenance
With smart pumps managing flow throughout your operations, you’ll automatically use less energy without sacrificing performance.
Every pump solution is designed with you in mind, with intuitive interfaces and other features that simplify installation, operation and servicing.
