Energy audit for pump installations

Independent energy audit with on-site flow, pressure, and power measurements. You receive a substantiated business case, EIA tax benefit, and a report that complies with the energy saving information obligation.

Why an energy check of your pump installations?

Industries that work with liquids – food, pharmaceuticals, dairy, breweries, and water treatment – consume enormous amounts of energy daily through their pumping systems. Often, these installations run unnoticed outside their optimal operating range for years.

An energy audit of your pumping systems provides immediate insight into savings potential, payback period, and potential subsidy benefits such as the Energy Investment Allowance (EIA). You receive a business case based on actual measurements, rather than an estimate.

What are the benefits of an energy audit?

An energy audit is not just a measurement; it is the basis for a well-founded investment decision and demonstrable sustainability.

Lower energy costs

Up to 70% power consumption reduction through optimal dimensioning, frequency control, and correct operating points.

CO₂ reduction

Demonstrable contribution to climate objectives and ESG reporting with measurable CO₂ savings per installation.

Comply with the law

Reporting in accordance with the energy saving information obligation, submitted via the Inventflow Service Center.

Tax benefit

Up to 40% of the investment in energy-efficient pumps deductible via the EIA scheme, net benefit approximately 10%.

How does an energy audit work at Inventflow?

From data analysis to business case: a structured process with measurable outcomes.

 
01

First inventory

Are you already using our services? Service Center, then we can use this data to conduct an initial inventory, with which we can demonstrate the feasibility of the study. Installations with the most potential are selected for the potential energy audit based on kWh savings, CO₂ savings, and payback period. 

02

On-site measurement

For the execution of the energy audit, various measurements are performed to map the load profile of the system. Flow, pressure, and power consumption are logged. 

03

Selection & sizing

The sizing of new pumps is based on the actual load profile and can be done very accurately (+/- 5%). 

04

Business case

Concrete proposal with savings, investment, and payback period – immediately usable for your EIA application.

  • Investment & ROI
  • EIA substantiation
  • CO₂ reporting

Four reasons to inspect your pumps today

Due to rising energy prices, grid congestion, and stricter legislation, an energy audit is more relevant than ever. Waiting costs money and capacity.

Many companies are legally required to report their energy consumption. Our energy audit fulfills this requirement and provides all necessary documentation directly through our Service Center.

Energy-efficient pumps reduce pressure on the electricity grid and provide room to grow within your production capacity.

Pumps account for 10% of global electricity consumption. By optimizing inefficient systems, you directly contribute to reducing CO₂ emissions.

With the Energy Investment Deduction (EIA), you can deduct 40% from your taxable profit for investments in sustainable pump solutions. A strong incentive to invest now.

85% of your pump costs is in energy

Manufacturing companies have been hit hard by the unprecedented rise in energy prices in recent months. Since 85% of a pump's life cycle cost is energy consumption, energy checks are more relevant than ever.

High energy prices result in a very attractive payback period for installing energy-efficient pumps. To give you a realistic picture of your savings potential, up to 70%, and the payback period for the investment in energy-efficient pumps, we offer energy checks.

Answers to your questions

The answer to the most frequently asked questions about our pump scan, EIA subsidy, and energy saving information obligation.

An energy audit for pumps is a structured investigation in which we measure the actual load profile of your pump installation — flow, pressure, and power consumption. Based on this data, we calculate the savings potential and develop a substantiated business case for optimization or replacement.
 

The savings potential can amount to up to 70% of energy consumption per installation. The actual savings depend on the pump type, the current operating points, and the load profile. Since approximately 85% of a pump's lifecycle costs are attributable to energy consumption, optimization usually yields a payback period within one to three years.

Yes. Our energy audit report contains the data required to comply with the statutory energy saving information obligation. All documentation is centrally managed and submitted via the Inventflow Service Center.

Inventflow is an independent pump specialist and conducts energy audits on pumps from virtually all brands, including Grundfos, KSB, Sulzer, Wilo, Netzsch, Seepex, Fristam, Alfa Laval, and more. Our advice is brand-independent and always aimed at the best solution for your situation. We focus exclusively on the industrial sector, not private individuals.
