Aging infrastructure poses a significant challenge for utilities nationwide, with Non-Revenue Water (NRW) often viewed as a negative consequence. However, NRW represents a valuable opportunity, as up to 75% of it is recoverable. Addressing this effectively requires customized strategies and advanced technologies such as water audits, smart metering, pressure management, and leak detection. This presentation demonstrates how these solutions are integrated to help utilities efficiently recover lost water and revenue.
By the end of this presentation, participants should be able to:
-
Explain the relationship between aging infrastructure and Non-Revenue Water (NRW) losses.
-
Identify key technologies and strategies—such as water audits, smart metering, pressure management, and leak detection—used to recover NRW.
-
Describe how integrating multiple solutions can improve water recovery efficiency and utility revenue.
-
Evaluate how a customized, data-driven approach supports sustainable infrastructure management.
