Advancing the flow of water

Global energy use in the water sector is projected to more than double by 2040. Grundfos promotes energy efficiency as a core value, aiming to save end-users’ energy through innovative water solutions. It recently became the first water solution company in the world to receive a validated net-zero target from the Science-Based Target Initiative, setting an example for the industry to follow.

Its product solutions reduce water consumption and enable customers to save water through water efficiency and reuse. Coupled with this, its Water Access program provides sustainable water solutions to underserved communities and improves their quality of life. They have also begun to implement circular principles to their product design and manufacturing.

Grundfos is the first water solution company to receive a validated SBTi Net Zero target. It recognises that 99% of its value chain emission comes from Scope 3 downstream, as with other companies in the industry, and that indirect emissions need to be addressed to create impactful climate action. Grundfosworked with the Carbon Trust to develop a decarbonisation strategy, along with customers in co-creating and supporting their decarbonisation journeys.

Grundfos also works on an industry platform to create shared knowledge with its peers, and advises on technology solutions and regulation drivers to accelerate national carbon neutrality strategies.
