Khartoum water-network IoT pilot commissioned

A regional water authority in the Khartoum area has commissioned the first phase of a smart-metering and leak-detection rollout across one urban zone. Designed for intermittent cellular connectivity with edge processing and store-and-forward telemetry, the deployment provides real-time visibility into network behaviour where previously there was none.

Project shape

Phase one covered approximately 800 customer connections across a defined urban zone, with smart meters installed at point-of-supply and pressure transducers at network nodes. Backhaul uses a mix of GSM-based cellular and store-and-forward where coverage is intermittent.

What's next

A full-network rollout roadmap has been produced based on phase one's learnings. Non-revenue-water reduction is measurable within the pilot zone within 90 days of full activation.
