Inefficient Pumping Systems Drain More Than Fluids!

Did you know that the average pumping system efficiency is 40% or less? 

When pumping systems are not optimized for best efficiency, they will "drain" a company's profitability with higher energy and maintenance costs, longer mean time between repairs, more CO2 emissions and a less reliable system.

The typical medium-sized plant spends over $1.4 million a year on energy to run their pumping systems. Better system design and optimized pumping systems may result in savings that will average $350K per year on energy alone. In addition, 4,436 tons of CO2 emissions may be avoided by implementing the systems optimization concepts discussed during this"Pumping System Optimization: Opportunities to Improve Life Cycle Performance" one-day course.With the system running more efficiently, maintenance and operating costs will go down and the mean time between repairs will improve.

With these savings opportunities, isn't it time to find out how much your pumping systems are costing you?

Pump Systems Matter is focused on Energy Savings, Efficiency and Economics of pumps and pumping systems. 

According to studies by the US Department of Energy:

  • Nearly 25% of electricity demand comes from industrial motor systems
  • Over 50% of pump life cycle costs result from energy and maintenance expense
  • Less than 15% of pump life cycle costs are initial purchase costs
  • Energy savings of 20% or more are possible with systems optimization

Pump Systems Matter aims to help lower the energy needs of North America while improving the bottom-line profitability of businesses by providing pump users with strategic, broad-based energy management and performance optimization solutions.

Industrial, municipal and many other sectors of North American economies are energy intensive.  Many savings programs and attractive paybacks are available to companies that seek efficiency improvements within motor-driven systems, especially with pumps.  Pump Systems Matter’s website is your educational resource for:

  • Getting started on optimizing your pumping systems
  • Free modeling tools, case studies, white papers, tip sheets, guidebooks, executive summaries and more to help you positively effect the profitability of your company
  • Standards, books and courses to help you become the “expert” in pumping systems for your organization
  • Available energy savings programs

While exploring this site, we encourage you to learn more about the initiative and the benefits of joining the growing roster of companies that are currently sponsors. We are in the early start-up stages of this national pump systems market transformation initiative and invite your leadership and participation.
