LoRa® Devices Enable Smart Water Utilities 

Utility companies are responsible for determining the price of water and managing the day-to-day delivery of safe drinking water. Historically, utility operations are laborious and require extensive measurement and action by field personnel.

Birdz has successfully leveraged Semtech’s LoRa devices to deploy a LoRa-enabled water system throughout the city of Lyon, France and surrounding areas. Eau du Grand Lyon has identified and repaired 1,200 water leaks, achieved an 8% increase in water network efficiency, and saved over 1M cubic meters of water due to the distribution network’s improved performance.
