Why reducing non-revenue water is a global priority
Water utilities worldwide are under pressure to reduce non-revenue water (NRW) the water lost before it reaches the customer. Whether due to leaks, aging infrastructure, or inaccurate metering, these losses represent a significant financial and environmental burden.
At Diehl Metering, we believe the solution lies in smart water management powered by data. Our new free eBooks, "Halve Water Losses via Data-Driven Reduction Strategy", provides a practical guide to cutting water losses using digital tools and analytics.
The hidden cost of leaks
Even small leaks can lead to massive water waste:
- A dripping tap can waste up to 40 m³/year,
- A thin trickle can result in 130 m³/year,
- A leaking toilet flush can lose 220 m³/year.
These losses not only strain water resources but also increase operational costs and reduce customer satisfaction.
A smarter, faster approach to leak detection
Our eBook outlines how utilities can implement a data-driven leak detection strategy using:
- Smart water meters for real-time consumption data,
- Acoustic loggers and pressure sensors to pinpoint leaks,
- Water Loss Management (WLM) software to analyze and prioritize interventions,
- SCADA integration f as a first step in identifying water losses.
This approach enables utilities to detect and respond to leaks within 24 hours, significantly reducing water loss and infrastructure damage.
