This British utility manages the water distribution network and directly serves 6 million population - It covers: 46,000 + miles of pipeline 8,000 outstations 1,800 District Metered Areas Several 100 reservoirs Anglian Water was one of the first to install a telemetry system for water and wastewater utility in the United Kingdom in the 1970s In order to maintain this standard, it was paramount for them to update their system and at the same time migrate the data collected over 25 years. Customer challenges Anglian Water needs to take advantage of Big Data in order to run they operations efficiently and effectively - 500,000 telemetry data points - 25 years worth of information The biggest Customer challenges are to : > Upgrade and integrate new system to existing system without any interruption of operations > Replace Leakage System with Integrated Leakage & Pressure Management System Schneider Electric solution Smart Water solution Smart water is not just software: It is about products, systems and services and how they interact with each other, including what the customer already has Smart water solution is made of 3 I’s Information: Realize your full potential – Use information that you may not even know you have. Do you think you could get more out of your installed technology base today? How does it support your utility’s strategy today? Integration: Make the best out of your current investments - Know your installed base and propose how to make it better by integrating what you already have. How integrated are your key systems? Have you standardized your IT on any/many technology(ies)? Do you have any preference? Do you leverage all the data coming from your instruments for optimal energy management? Innovation: Fill in the gaps – Create a joint roadmap to resolve the utility’s challenges as they come. What is your utility’s strategy moving forward? What are the plans to support this strategy from the technology point of view? StruxureWare Plant Operations Clear SCADA delivers reliable real-time wireless data transmission Telemetry system > To monitor every ounce that flows through the network > To serve a large geographical area: real-time monitoring of 46K miles of pipelines, several hundred of reservoirs + 1,000 assets dispersed in that large area that need to be monitored to make sure that they are working effectively The core technology used for the telemetry system is StruxureWare Plant Operations – Clear SCADA The team also implemented Water Management Suite as the solution for the integrated leakage and pressure management system This was not just a upgrade project. Anglian Water wanted the system to be open and integrated with existing business systems and to move from a vertical structure to a horizontal structure Customer Benefits from this Smart Water Solution: System that is fully integrated with the business (Open integrated system) System allows Anglian Water to run their business more efficiently and effectively : 500,000 telemetry data points + 25 years worth of information Smart Water solution : Optimizes the company’s water loss management process and resources to achieve and maintain a low Non Revenue Water level over time (Made of Integrated Leakage & Pressure Management System ) Provides real-time monitoring access Enables wireless data transmission Big Data management
2. Country: Egypt
3. Higher system availability
4. Water services provider for the Province of Cremona in the north of Italy needed to create a centralized control room to efficiently operate remote assets at over 1000 sites They wanted to know how they could benefit from the IIoT and turned to Schneider Electric Here we show a complete solution built on a strong EcoStruxure platform with integrated software and WWW domain expertise What we’re looking at here is how Padania Acque has integrated EcoStruxure Water Cycle Advisor software applications with its ERP From the ERP they feed data about billing and invoicing to the Water Management Suite They also collect and store in the cloud data from their connected drives and RTUs about the state of the water network This means they have ALL of the water information in the Water Management System to understand water balances, create a dashboard that helps to better see and manage the entire water service, and to help to create reports We also know from this customer that the strong collaboration between their OT and IT people is one of their keys to success – their people with telemetry expertise are working very closely with the company’s IT people to develop a holistic system that is suitable and effective for collecting data from the field and managing it and storing it on the IT side They were clear with their teams that in order to be successful that this project needed to be approached with both teams working alongside each other And so the results of addressing all of the customer’s requirements, particularly around water management and water network management, are reduced energy consumption by at least 5% and operations improved by 20%
