Remote Monitoring for Water Utilities

Remote monitoring is becoming increasingly popular among water utilities, due to its cost-saving benefits and ability to provide greater control, flexibility, and oversight of water systems. As the technology continues to evolve, it is likely that more utilities will begin to adopt remote monitoring to enhance their operations and improve customer service.

Remote monitoring and data collecting technologies, such as SCADA (Supervisory Control and Data Acquisition), Internet of Things (IoT) for water systems, and other tools with such capabilities allow utility operators to remotely monitor and control different aspects of a water utility, such as pumps and valves. 

These systems can collect real-time data on pressure, flow rates, and other factors, allowing you to make adjustments or take corrective action as needed. They also allow for data-driven water management, using the various types of data to enhance operations.

Benefits of Remote Monitoring and Analytics in Water Utility Operations

1. Increase Water Utility Efficiency

Utilities use data analytics, such as regression analysis, with the information provided by remote monitors to track usage patterns and identify areas of water waste by water system performance monitoring. With this information, utility companies can make changes to their system to reduce water loss.

2. Asset Management

Remote monitoring and analytics can also be used to keep track of a utility’s assets, such as pumps and valves. This can help utilities maintain compliance with regulatory standards, as well as help them identify when an asset needs to be replaced or when pipe condition assessments need to occur. Additionally, the system can provide real-time data on the performance of the asset, allowing for proactive maintenance to reduce downtime and improve efficiency.

3. Water Supply Management

Remote monitoring and analytics can be used to perform assessments of water usage. This can help identify areas where water is being wasted, as well as potential opportunities for efficiency improvements. This can help utilities save money on their energy costs, and preserve water resources by measuring the loss component.

4. Predictive Analytics

Another type of remote monitoring and analytics is predictive analytics, which uses historical data to predict future trends and events. First, advanced analytics can be used to identify and measure the impact of water system changes. By analyzing data over time and forecasting future usage, operators can identify trends, identify areas of improvement, and develop strategies to reduce energy and water usage.

Water Loss Assessment 

Utilities can use remote monitoring and analytics to detect potential water losses on their system. By monitoring water levels, pressure, and flow rates, utilities can detect unusual patterns that may indicate a leak. The extensive data collected from remote monitoring systems can be analyzed for trends, and operators can be alerted as soon as a potential leak is detected.

1. Leak Detection Systems

These systems use sensors to identify water leaks in real-time. This can help utilities to quickly identify and repair any water leaks, reducing the amount of water lost.

2. Pressure Monitoring Systems

Pressure monitoring systems are able to measure the water pressure in a network and identify any pressure fluctuations. These systems can help detect any pipe blockages or leaks, allowing utilities to take corrective action quickly.

3. Flow Monitoring Systems

Flow monitoring systems measure the flow of water in a system and can detect any changes in flow patterns. This can help identify any water that is being wasted due to inefficient water usage practices.

Control Utility Systems Remotely 

Automated and remote controls offer an efficient and cost-effective way to maintain and improve water quality, ensure water availability, and reduce water wastage. They also allow water utility systems to be operated from anywhere, saving time and money. This reduces the need for manual labor, allowing water utility systems to run more efficiently and at lower cost.

These control systems can be used  for timely interventions in urgent situations to prevent water shortages. They can also be used to regulate the pressure of water supply, which is important for providing consistent water flow to customers. 

Automated and remote control systems can also be used to improve the safety of water supply systems. They can be used to detect and respond to changes in pressure or temperature that could indicate a potential hazard such as water main breaks.
