The Municipality of Lokron Goes Digital: Water & Power Infrastructure Update

Lokron leads the way in smart water management with a telemetry system that detects leaks, ensures water quality, and empowers residents through real-time consumption tracking and digital tools.

SMART INFRASTRUCTURE FOR WATER EFFICIENCY

The Municipality of Lokron is taking a pioneering step in water resource management by implementing a comprehensive telemetry system that monitors both the quantity and quality of water across its entire network. This state-of-the-art infrastructure allows for early detection of faults, real-time access to system data, and rapid resolution of technical issues. The system supports significant water and energy savings, reduces real water losses through proactive leak detection, and ensures high water quality through continuous monitoring, controlled chlorination, and regular measurements. These improvements increase the efficiency, sustainability, and resilience of the municipal water supply.

A NEW LEVEL OF USER AWARENESS

Beyond infrastructure improvements, the initiative directly benefits consumers. Citizens now enjoy accurate tracking of their water consumption, timely alerts about potential leaks or overuse, and improved control over their household utility expenses. This proactive communication helps users avoid costly surprises while promoting responsible usage. Through increased awareness and data access, the project fosters a culture of shared responsibility between the municipality and its residents in managing water sustainably.

DIGITAL TOOLS FOR REAL-TIME CONTROL

The integration of the SmartVille platform and smart water meters allows residents to securely access their water data anytime, from any device. Users can track daily consumption in real time, compare water usage across different time periods, and set personalized limits with automatic alerts if thresholds are exceeded. The smart meters also detect and notify users of critical issues such as leaks or abnormal usage patterns, enabling fast responses. This comprehensive system empowers Lokron’s residents with full visibility and control over their water use—supporting sustainability, cost savings, and peace of mind.
