Water
Description
Water is increasingly being recognized as a resource that needs to be protected. More than 34% of pumped water is lost as non-revenue water because of tampering, theft, meter errors and faulty distribution networks.
It is fascinating to see how the Internet of Things (IoT) is working in the water sector. Many countries are adopting smart meters for effective water utilization, and they further save cities against increasing water scarcity while setting permanent water-saving goals for consumers.
Benefits
- A smart water meter favors dynamic water billing, which eliminates the need for manual supervision every month in each household.
- A smart water meter facilitates a two-way interaction among the water distributors and the consumers where the suppliers can track each house’s water consumption that come under the real-time networking range.
- Helps identify consumption inefficiencies and patterns.
- A smart water meter solution is scalable enough to monitor the pipeline temperatures.
