ApaVital S.A. to Optimize 4,000 Kilometers of
Pipeline to Protect Water Supply for 500,000 People in Iasi
A Romanian water utility is using advanced analytics to
transform its infrastructure and tackle water losses in real time.
ApaVital S.A., which serves more than half a million people in the
region of Iasi, will apply intelligent data integration software to
optimize its network, detect and prevent leaks, and ensure a more
sustainable water supply for its communities.
In Romania, about 41% of water is lost before it reaches
consumers due to leaks.1 To address the issue ahead of new leakage
thresholds mandated by the revised European Drinking Water
Directive, ApaVital is implementing Xylem Vue powered by GoAigua, a
cutting-edge software and analytics platform from global water
technology leader Xylem (NYSE: XYL).
The platform will combine data from across ApaVital’s existing
infrastructure network of more than 4,000 kilometers of water
pipes, 193 pumping stations, and 50,000 water meters. Operators
will be able to monitor performance in real time and proactively
identify and fix leaks. The utility aims to reduce water loss to
below 20%, making households and businesses in the region more
water-secure.
“As we grow our digital capabilities and increase our volume of
data, we recognize the need to streamline our sources to increase
operational efficiencies,” said Mihail Dorus, Managing Director at
ApaVital. “This solution will give us the visibility to address
critical challenges such as water losses and allow us to maximize
our infrastructure investments and benefit our communities.”
“Most utilities already have plenty of data. The difficulty is
turning the numbers into actionable insights and decisions,” said
Kenny Khoo, Managing Director for Eastern Europe South at Xylem.
“Connecting data streams simplifies water management by giving
operators a comprehensive understanding of how their network is
performing. With greater system insight, utilities can optimize
operations, unlock more value from existing infrastructure, and
address challenges quickly and sustainably.”
