ABB prepares industry for 2027 motor efficiency standards at TPS

Press release

Visit ABB at booth #2617 | Turbomachinery & Pump Symposium | Houston, Texas, USA | September 22-24

New U.S. Department of Energy (DOE) motor efficiency standards arrive in 2027, giving industrial companies a limited window to evaluate their motor systems and prepare for new requirements. ABB, the world’s leading NEMA motor manufacturer, is helping operators get ahead of the transition with high-efficiency technologies built to meet evolving standards without sacrificing reliability or performance.

At the 2026 Turbomachinery & Pump Symposium (TPS), ABB will showcase new motor solutions at booth #2617, including NEMA Premium® 4 efficiency technologies designed to improve energy efficiency, reduce operating costs and support demanding pumping and process applications.
