CASE

Pilot Project in Ukraine: Water Management with Sigfox 0G

Project Objective

Implement an automated cold water metering system at the municipal enterprise "Bogoduhivvoda" in Bogoduhiv, Ukraine, using the Sigfox 0G network to improve water consumption monitoring and resource management.



Solution

For this project, a total of 200 smart cold water meters, Jeto T30, were deployed in multi-apartment residential buildings in Bogoduhiv. These meters are equipped with Sigfox connectivity, a cutting-edge technology provided by Sigfox operator UTILIX.ONE LLC in Ukraine. The Sigfox 0G network ensures reliable wireless data transmission, even from remote consumers, making it ideal for water consumption control applications. Additional charges increased from 30 to 110%

Result

The implementation of the automated cold water metering system in the Bogoduhiv community marks a significant step toward modernizing communal services and ensuring efficient resource management. This system allows the municipal enterprise "Bogoduhivvoda" to monitor and control cold water consumption on a daily basis, leading to several benefits:

  1. Improved Service Quality: Real-time data collection enables the utility company to provide better services and respond promptly to any issues related to water supply.
  2. Efficient Resource Utilization: By analyzing consumption data, the utility company can make informed decisions about resource allocation and minimize unaccounted losses, ultimately helping to keep water tariffs stable.
  3. Simplified Operations: With automated meter readings and alerts for interventions (such as tampering or magnetic interference), the system reduces the need for manual data collection and monitoring.
