The Challenge
Non-revenue water is a challenge for water utilities around the world. 34 percent of water that is delivered is never billed, representing 33.2 trillion gallons of water that are lost globally each year.
Unbilled authorized consumption. Apparent or commercial losses. Real or physical losses. All of these can impact your revenue and operations, and ultimately lead to the uneccessary loss of a precious resource. Identifying, monitoring and taking action to monitor these key performance indicators is a complex challenge.
