Diehl Metering Awarded By MIMA 2025 For Sustainability

Diehl Metering has been awarded the Microsoft Intelligent Manufacturing Award 2025 (MIMA 2025) in the Sustainability category. This coveted prize, which Microsoft Germany awards together with the global management consultancy Roland Berger, recognizes the company’s AI-powered leak prevention and smart metering solution, Water Loss Management, which enhances utility efficiency and supports sustainable urban water solutions for industrial and municipal water management.

Advancing Water Sustainability with AI
Water scarcity remains a critical global challenge, exacerbated by climate change and aging infrastructure. In some regions, up to 40% of pumped water is lost during distribution. Diehl Metering’s award-winning Sensor-to-Value Chain model applies IoT water monitoring, AI-driven water analytics, and predictive analytics for water loss to help utilities and industries reduce non-revenue water (NRW) and optimize digital water networks.

By leveraging machine learning for water systems, the technology enables early leak detection, real-time water quality monitoring, and predictive maintenance, contributing to more sustainable and resilient water infrastructure.

Commitment to Digital Transformation and Sustainability
Diehl Metering’s recognition at MIMA 2025 highlights its commitment to innovation and sustainability in water management. By integrating AI-driven digital transformation, the company supports smart cities water solutions, helping industries and utilities reduce water losses, prevent costly production halts, and optimize large-scale infrastructure investments. This award reaffirms Diehl Metering’s role in accelerating future operations and driving datadriven management for a more sustainable future.

"As industries strive for efficiency and sustainability, new technologies provide a game-changing approach, ensuring water is managed smarter and more resourceful. We see our AI-driven metering solution as more than an innovation — it’s a commitment to fight scarcity and securing water for future generations.” Annette Geuther, Chief Sales Officer at Diehl Metering
