Dubai, UAE: Pump manufacturer, Grundfos has announced that it will be attending the Dubai Solar Show, which is part of the annually held Water, Energy, Technology and Environment exhibition (WETEX).

The company, which, last year, received the United Nations Climate Change Award during COP 21 in Paris, for its approach to sustainable water supply in Kenya and Uganda, will be showcasing many of its “solutions and technologies in energy efficiency and sustainability” at the event, said Henning Sandager Andersen, Area Managing Director, Grundfos (Middle East & Turkey).

“Aside from giving competitive advantage,” he said, “we believe that constantly improving and innovating our solutions, we can help our customers to reduce their energy consumption. Sales of our highly-efficient circulator pumps in the EU between 2005 and 2015 represented accumulated savings of 4.5 billion kWh per year. This is equivalent to the annual electricity consumption of 1,000,000 European households. These same products can provide region-specific solutions to the challenges of the Middle East and the long-term visions in place by many of the Governments, authorities and municipalities.

WETEX 2016 will be held from October 4 to 6, 2016, at the Dubai International Convention and Exhibition Centre, and has been organised by the Dubai Electricity and Water Authority (DEWA). The company informed that the 18^th edition of the event is being held under the directives of H.H. Sheikh Mohammed bin Rashid Al Maktoum, Vice President and Prime Minister of the United Arab Emirates, and Ruler of Dubai, and under the patronage of H.H. Sheikh Hamdan bin Rashid Al Maktoum, Deputy Ruler of Dubai, Minister of Finance and President of DEWA; under the umbrella of Green Week.
