Case Study
The case study of Yarra Valley Water and TaKaDu shows how the use of TaKaDu for monitoring the utility’s water network helped Yarra Valley Water. It demonstrates the high value of TaKaDu - reducing water loss and saving time and costs while increasing efficiency.
Workshop Video
On March 29th 2012, Yarra Valley Water held a workshop in Melbourne, Australia, to present its rollout and usage of TaKaDu's water network monitoring service.
This clip captures the highlights from this workshop.
Aguas de Antofagasta, Chile
Aguas de Antofagasta operates a concession for the distribution of water in Chile’s Antofagasta Region, supplying water to the five largest cities in the region.
Case Study
The case study of Aguas de Antofagasta and TaKaDu demonstrates how TaKaDu can help a utility to increase its efficiency quickly. With TaKaDu, Aguas de Antofagasta reduced its water loss, while improving the performance of its leak detection and repair teams.
Marco Kutulas Peet, General Manager of Aguas de Antofagasta, talks about his water utility's adoption of TaKaDu's water network monitoring.
Hagihon (Jerusalem Water Utility), Israel
Hagihon, Jerusalem’s Water and Wastewater Works Company, supplies water services to a population of 800,000 people. While the water supplies available to Hagihon are limited, the utility continuously maintains and improves its water distribution network, keeping its Non-Revenue-Water at approximately 12%.
Case Study
The case study of Hagihon and TaKaDu shows how TaKaDu helped Hagihon to face some of its challenges through early detection of network inefficiencies, allowing it to save water and energy.
Thames Water, UK
Thames Water, a private utility serving millions of people across London and the Southeast of England, is the UK’s largest water and wastewater services provider. For many years, Thames Water has been at the forefront of many practices and analytical innovations to reduce non-revenue water.
Thames Water Press Release
"Thames Water’s partnership with TaKaDu’s water infrastructure monitoring system allows it to monitor water flow and pressure changes in water mains and analyse real-time data and historical data to detect potential problems ahead of time. The use of TaKaDu has meant the leaks can be detected twice as quick using the data it provides and has helped to get particularly weak areas of the network repaired before the pipe has burst."
Reducing water loss, operating more efficiently and improving quality of service and water continuity are key goals for us and TaKaDu can help us achieve them.
