WILO CS, s.r.o., the Czech branch of global pump manufacturer Wilo SE, has joined the Association of Energy Service Providers (APES). The company becomes the 35th member of the association and joins the group of technology partners contributing to energy performance contracting (EPC) in the Czech Republic. Operating in the Czech market since 1994, Wilo CS is part of the German family-owned Wilo SE, a company with over 150 years of experience in pump technology. One of its founders is credited with inventing the circulation pump. The company has a long-standing presence in the Czech Republic and is known for its technical solutions aimed at improving energy efficiency. Wilo CS has been active in EPC projects for several years. Its pump systems have been used in various public buildings and institutions, including the Municipal House, the Rudolfinum, Bohnice Psychiatric Hospital, and the Valdice and Pankrác prisons, helping to improve energy performance and reduce operating costs. According to Jan Cidlinský, director of Wilo CS, the company’s contribution extends beyond technology supply to include energy efficiency consulting. He noted that understanding client needs is essential for delivering effective solutions. The company’s membership also brings added value to APES in terms of sustainability expertise. Wilo’s main production facility in Dortmund is carbon-neutral, and the Czech branch is working toward similar environmental goals. APES chairman Miroslav Marada noted that Wilo’s practical experience with pumps in EPC projects will be a useful asset to the association. Wilo joins other APES technology partners such as Colmark, Hoval, Lamberga, and Systherm, contributing to the association’s efforts in promoting energy-efficient technologies and sustainable building solutions.
