AMR, AMI AND METERING RESOURCES

  • As operational costs rise and aging infrastructure strains budgets, many water utilities are turning to Advanced Metering Infrastructure (AMI) to reduce non-revenue water, streamline operations, and deliver better customer service. 

  • Read about a utility that reduced field investigations by 90%, enhancing operations and customer satisfaction with near real-time data.

  • Severn Trent is reducing water loss and improving customer engagement with smart meters and advanced data analytics, achieving measurable results in leak detection, conservation, and operational efficiency.

  • What began as a mandate to reduce water loss has grown into a model of smart water management for the Eastern Band of the Cherokee Indians (EBCI). Since deploying Kamstrup’s ultrasonic meters in 2016, the utility has transitioned from crisis response to innovation leadership—proving that even the most rugged terrain can support advanced metering infrastructure (AMI).

  • Smart meters, sensors, and operational systems generate a constant stream of information about water flow, pressure, consumption, and system performance. But data alone doesn't solve problems—it's the ability to understand and act on this information that drives real operational improvements.

  • This blog post introduces how the WEAD hybrid system works and how it empowers AMR-based utilities with actionable intelligence immediately, shortening the road to full AMI.

  • Located in the state of Illinois, Exeter-Merritt Water Cooperative delivers safe and high-quality drinking water to approximately 300 residents from the county of Scott and Morgan. In 2011, the cooperative decided to do a phase 3 expansion and include additional homes in the rural area resulting in connections increasing from 154 to 325. Exeter and Merritt are small rural towns built on hilly terrains and gravel roads, with most of the meters installed in the countryside.

  • Non-revenue water is a global problem. Around 30% of drinking water is lost on its way to the consumer, imposing a huge economic loss that increases the overall cost of water treatment. The good news: By combining smart metering, hydraulic modeling, and AI, utilities can effectively increase their operational efficiency, reduce water losses, and optimize the utilization of increasingly scarce resources.

  • Most water utilities worldwide face significant challenges in reducing non-revenue water (NRW), frequently impeded by operational inefficiencies and resources shortage. Romania's largest public water company, RAJA SA, faced similar obstacles and embarked on a transformative initiative in the city of Constanța. In partnership with AGS Water Solutions, RAJA implemented a performance-based service contract (PBSC) for NRW management and adopted innovative digital tools to support the new integrated water meter management approach. This initiative offers valuable insights for utilities seeking to scale digitalization and improve operational efficiency.

See how SIWA MDM Event and Data Action Management (EDAM) helps utilities detect anomalies and identify service points with potential issues. With EDAM, utilities can define a set of conditions or rules that SIWA MDM meter data management uses to analyze data and events such as water leaks and missing reads.
