WATER AI
This page features:
Water is life, water is infrastructure, water is the future.
But today, water is far more than that. It is the invisible force behind global development. Wherever societies grow, where digitalisation succeeds and where AI drives transformation - water flows.
Wilo stands for intelligent water technology.
We create solutions that don’t just move water – they control, connect and optimise it. Our systems enable essential infrastructure and help solve the challenges of a globally connected and digital world.

Our sustainability strategy
Our overarching sustainability strategy gives WATER AI clear structure and direction. It is built around three impact areas:
Creating:
Designing digital and AI-empowered technologies and solutions that solve real-world water challenges and make processes smarter.
Caring:
Prioritising ethical human-centred AI that is safe and socially responsible – for employees, the environment and society.
Connecting:
Focussing on global strategic partnerships to build smart, connected systems that improve sustainability and unlock the potential of technology.
The three strategic pillars
As a pioneer in its industry, Wilo is actively shaping the digital and AI era – with WATER AI. We understand WATER AI as a holistic approach that goes far beyond technology – shaping the way we think and act.
We enable AI
Wilo develops water technologies tailored to the needs of the entire AI value chain. With applications ranging from raw material extraction and high-tech fabs to hyperscale data centers, Wilo sets new standards in the digital value chain – becoming the preferred technology partner and an industry leader with intelligent water technologies and precise management.
We embed AI
Wilo integrates artificial intelligence directly into products, systems, and services. This results in solutions that self-optimize, process data in real time, and adapt to varying operating conditions. They detect errors and energy consumption – delivering clear added value through increased energy security.
We embrace AI
Wilo applies AI across the entire company – from research and development to manufacturing, logistics, and customer service. AI accelerates development cycles, optimises planning, and supports both employees and customers in their daily work. This makes processes more efficient. For our market partners, this means greater benefits. For our employees, it means more time to focus on what really matters: Creating solutions that tangibly improve lives.
Intelligent solutions for real-world challenges
Artificial intelligence is reshaping our world. It manages energy flow, improves healthcare, analyses traffic, protects data and automates processes.
But what’s often overlooked is: all of this depends on water.
Where AI transforms society, water provides the foundation. Whether in data centres, urban systems, high-tech industry or sustainable resource extraction: without water, there are no data, no energy, no supply chains.
Wilo takes water a step further: as a key for a connected, climate-conscious and secure future. Our systems don’t just move water – they link it. They analyse, control and learn. They detect inefficiencies, anticipate risks and improve how resources are used. That’s why Wilo solutions are the technical backbone behind AI, digitalisation and resilient societies.
We create impact wherever the future is being built:
in extracting raw materials for green technologies,
in supplying chip fabs,
in cooling global data centres and
in water networks.
In tune with our global megatrends
Our world is undergoing profound change – socially, environmentally, and technologically.
Amidst this dynamic transformation, we need solutions that are intelligent, adaptable, and responsible.
WATER AI is the logical and consistent response to these challenges.
Your questions, our answers
What is WATER AI?
What does "We enable AI" mean?
Wilo develops water technologies to meet the demands along the entire AI value chain. With applications ranging from raw material extraction and high-tech fabs to hyperscale data centers, we set standards in the digital value chain – becoming the preferred technology partner and pioneer in our industry through intelligent water solutions and precise management.
What does "We embed AI" mean?
Wilo integrates artificial intelligence directly into products, systems, and services. This creates solutions that self-optimize, process data in real time, and adapt to different operating conditions. They detect faults early, control more efficiently, and reduce energy consumption – delivering clear added value through increased energy security.
What does "We embrace AI" mean?
Wilo applies AI across the entire company – from research and development to manufacturing, logistics, and customer service. AI accelerates development cycles, optimizes planning, and supports employees as well as customers in their daily routines. This streamlines processes. For our market partners, it means greater value, and for our employees, more time to focus on what really matters: creating solutions that noticeably improve lives.
How does WATER AI support Wilo’s sustainability goals?
How does WATER AI support Wilo’s sustainability goals?
WATER AI directly contributes and is deeply integrated into our three Impact Areas:
CREATING – We develop solutions for the digital & AI age.
CARING – We embrace human-centric AI and prioritise ethics, safety and human needs in all AI use.
CONNECTING – We link systems, people and knowledge through data and digital intelligence.
Why is WATER AI at the moment so relevant?
Artificial intelligence is rewriting the rules of business and society. Its rapid adoption across diverse areas of life and work has made one thing clear: AI is not a vision of the future, but part of everyday life.
Global infrastructure is under pressure. Megatrends such as human centricity, globalization 2.0, urbanization, the energy transition, water responsibility, and climate change are transforming everything. They impact infrastructure, demand smarter solutions, and redefine responsibility for global technology leaders. Digitalization and AI make these solutions intelligent – Wilo keeps them running.
What distinguishes WATER AI at Wilo?
Today, AI controls energy flows, improves healthcare, analyzes traffic, protects data, and automates processes. But what is often overlooked: none of this would be possible without water. At Wilo, we integrate AI into our solutions, workflows, and services. Because where AI transforms society, water forms the foundation. Whether in data centers, urban systems, high-tech industries, or sustainable raw material extraction: without water, there is no data, no energy, no supply chains. We provide the products that enable the AI era across the entire value chain.
Our approach includes:
Human-centred
Embedded mindset
Sustainability-driven
AI-active
How does WATER AI benefit Wilo customers?
Customers benefit from:
Lower lifecycle costs through predictive maintenance
Greater energy and water efficiency
Fewer interruptions through intelligent fault detection
Data insights that help them plan and improve their operations
Compliance with environmental and digital performance standards
In short: better performance, more transparency, and future-ready systems.
What are examples of WATER AI in practice?
Examples can be found across industries and worldwide:
