Águas e Energia do Porto: Innovation and Digitalization Experience of a Full Water Management Utility

As a water utility, you are facing a range of problems in your efforts to provide reliable, resilient, and affordable water systems. Some of the most common concerns are rising electricity prices, aging assets and infrastructure, increasing water scarcity and loss, growing urban populations and shrinking rural ones, and extreme weather events affecting water infrastructure. Additionally, utilities are advancing digitalization to address some complex challenges. You may be collecting electronic data in unprecedented volumes, such as output from smart meters, sensors, and various types of inspections. Yet, you may still struggle to use that data to support better decisions, in part because of insufficient digital technology to improve processes. Join us in this extraordinary session, to discover how they improved the entire urban water cycle in the city of Porto, Portugal by implementing a smart water management platform based on water digital twin solutions.
