Smart Water in India Relying on Metering Systems and Monitoring against Water Stealing

[China Instrument Network Instrument Market] The lack of water resources has always affected the management and operation of water services in India. Therefore, how to deal with the phenomenon of water theft and waste of water resources due to the aging of infrastructure has become a problem that public utilities must urgently solve. According to the analysis, the loss of water caused by water stealing in India has become increasingly severe. As a result, the proportion of non-public water in India is 34%, which is higher than the world average of 28%.

AMI powers water regulation Currently, Indian water companies have taken measures including the use of advanced infrastructure metering systems. It is estimated that by 2020, India will spend 200 million U.S. dollars on AMI systems including smart water, communication networks and data analysis. The Bangalore Water Supply and Drainage Authority and the Kerala Water Service are two municipal units that have already started experimental operations. In November 2015, they used IBM's analysis technology to manage the water distribution system, using the company's big data and predictive analysis to cope with water demand growth due to water shortages, population, and economic growth. For example, the population of Bangalore has grown from 5.4 million in 2000 to 10 million in 2015, which has exerted great pressure on the distribution of water resources in the city.

The surge in water demand brought about by population growth has led the Bangalore Water Supply and Drainage Authority to work with IBM to monitor and manage the water supply network based on the IBM Smart Operations Center. The IBM India Software Lab has developed a water distribution plan that includes a geo-information system to help the agency monitor the flowmeter in real time. By converting table data to geospatially visible maps, this software helps engineers better monitor water flow and distribution.

The intelligent monitoring Kerala Water Company stated that they have used IBM's data analysis and mobile solutions for the monitoring and management of water resources in Trivandrum. The water company has installed smart sensors to work with IBM's smart operating software so that workers can hear the alarm the first time a leak occurs.

In addition, sensors distributed over the entire processing line allow water companies to have real-time data on turbidity, conductivity, Ph, and chlorine content of water quality, and can help water utilities track all 210,000 water meters, reduce abnormal bills, and increase payment. Water fee 10%.

Water fees are collected in India. If you want to invest in water infrastructure, the pricing of water charges needs to be approved by the government, water supply, and users. In late January, Pune raised the water fee by 22.5% to raise funds to improve the city's water supply facilities, including the installation of smart water meters. It is expected that in the next five years, the city will implement smart metering for every household. By increasing water charges, Pune is expected to receive 950 million U.S. dollars in 2016-2017, which will be used for the transformation of the city’s water projects.

Conclusion Whether it is India or China, water resources management faces many problems. Xiao Bian learned that 30 out of 35 large and medium-sized cities in India are faced with the problem of shortage of water resources, and reducing the loss of water resources caused by various causes is a top priority. Only the large-scale advancement of intelligent water meters and smart water services is expected, and the management and rational utilization of water resources can only be realized.
