TP24-27 Improving the Efficiency of Pumping System Optimization

The Hydraulic Institute (HI) and their Educational Foundation Pump Systems Matter (PSM) designed the Pump System Optimization (PSO) course to target individuals that interact with pump systems, but may not be responsible for designing or upgrading them. The course prepares energy efficiency program implementers, pump system owners, pump system operators, and pump sales personnel to collaborate with the broader set of actors in the pump industry to make coherent and actionable recommendations to achieve energy efficiency goals. Utilities can sponsor a PSO course to drive the industry focus on energy efficiency and prepare individuals to better understand pump system energy consumption. Attendees will be able to communicate system efficiency concepts, collaborate with pump professionals, and identify opportunities to implement energy conservation measures.
