EcoPump är ett projekt som är startat av Europump i syfte att effektivare utnyttja energin i pumpsammanhang, helt enkelt verka för energibesparing med rätt pumpar på rätt plats.
Nedan följer en text ur Europumps beskrivning av EcoPump-initiativet:
Europump is launching the "ECOPUMP" initiative which aims not only to achieve ecoefficiency of pump systems in several market segments but also, and most importantly, to communicate Europump efforts to:
- all customers or end users of our industry and, in this way, increase their
awareness of energy consumption and environmental protection;
- government institutions and stakeholders at European and Member States levelin order to express the preference of our industry for voluntary commitments rather than legislative measures.
Pump systems are energy-using technologies, which transform the energy necessary for distribution of fluid to domestic, commercial and industrial users. In response to constant technological evolution, societal demands and environmental concerns, pump manufacturers have developed and continue to develop technologies that must guarantee high performance, while being as environmentally friendly as possible.
They have developed the knowledge and acquired the necessary expertise associated with the use of their products and systems, and are best placed to identify the potential energy savings relating to the use of these technologies. In order to support end-users, they have also elaborated a range of services that cover not only installation and maintenance of the equipment, but also auditing of energy consumption, identification and calculation of potential savings, advice on the product best suited to a particular operation, and advice on its use and possible adaptation throughout its lifecycle.
