Under the issue of reducing carbon dioxide emissions and energy saving, many countries have been pushing toward energy efficiency management for motors and driven equipment that use large amounts of electricity. A pump is a motor driven equipment, which is widely used and applied in various areas. However, because it accounts for a considerable amount of power being used by the motor, the EU and the United States have implemented minimum energy performance standard management to promote product efficiency. Based on the trend of energy efficiency management and future development of industries, international manufacturers are aiming to improve the efficiency of the pump system with new motors such as permanent magnet and switch reluctant motor, cooperating with the function of Internet of Things (IoT) with pump systems and providing overall water system service. This article will discuss the energy efficiency policies for liquid handling pumps, market size, supplier development and analyze the global market and industry trends for liquid handling pumps.
