How are IoT and Smart Meters Uplifting the Water Industry?

Smart meters are pieces of advanced infrastructures that create a two-way interaction with the information management system of utilities. Hence, these meters enable customers and water suppliers to share information with each other that empower both parties to take useful and practical actions.
These advanced metering infrastructures are now the need of the hour, especially in cities due to rapid urbanization and growing water scarcity from climate change. By using these meters the cities can balance supply and demand conditions in an efficient manner.
Continuously growing population (especially in cities) and depleting water resources due to climate change has forced the utilities to turn towards smart meters based IoT solutions. These solutions allow utilities to ensure an efficient supply of water based on demand. They are also empowering the customers to go through their historical data about water consumption and take action to save water on a personal level. Thus customers can identify water inefficiencies in their homes and set water-saving goals to further reduce water bills.
