Digital technologies such as AI, analytics, cloud, and digital twin are playing a key role in the transformation of the water industry. The application of these advanced technologies helps water resource authorities (both municipal and non-municipal authorities) to address various challenges related to the monitoring of water quality, the improvement of infrastructure asset management, the reduction of leakages, and the reliability of water supply (ultimately ensuring efficient water management).
Although advanced technologies hold significant potential in terms of improving operational efficiencies, the water industry continues to remain slow to adopt digital technologies. This is mainly due to the fragmented nature of the industry, which makes it difficult to implement new technologies across the entire ecosystem. However, with the rapidly changing landscape, traditional means of water management will no longer suffice, and digital technologies will gain traction in the near future.
