ICT FOR WATER RESOURCE MANAGEMENT Presented by Wassim
ICT FOR WATER RESOURCE MANAGEMENT Presented by Wassim Derguech Project co-funded by the European Commission within the 7 th Framework Program (Grant Agreement No. 619660) @WATERNOMICS_EU www. waternomics. eu
THE CHALLENGE Water resources are under stress because of: • • • Climate change Urbanisation Increased world population Resource demand Water Scarcity Need for resource security & supply The question: How can ICT help in securing access to sufficient and safe water? @WATERNOMICS_EU 2 www. waternomics. eu
THE WATER CHALLENGE • Global energy and water demand is expected to rise 40% over the next 20 years • By 2025, 1. 8 billion people will live in water scarce regions and two thirds subjected to water stress • 20 -40% of Europe’s water is being wasted • Water supply and sanitation is a large energy consumer. – Represents 19% of electricity and 30% of natural gas consumption in California @WATERNOMICS_EU 3 www. waternomics. eu
THE PROGRAM ICT for Water • 10 projects; • Timeline: 2012 – 2017; • Total budget: ~40 million euro; • Contribution EC: 29 million euro. • • @WATERNOMICS_EU DAIAD ISS-EWATUS Smart. H 2 O WISDOM 4 www. waternomics. eu

Concrete Objectives WATERNOMICS will provide personalized and actionable information on water consumption and water availability to individual households, companies and cities in an intuitive & effective manner at relevant time-scales for decision making • To engage consumers in new interactive and personalized ways that bring water efficiency to the forefront and leads to changes in water behaviours • To empower corporate decision makers and municipal area managers with a water information platform together with relevant tools and methodologies to enact ICT-enabled water management programs • To promote ICT enabled water awareness using airports and water utilities as pilot examples • To make possible new water pricing options and policy actions by combining water availability and consumption data @WATERNOMICS_EU 6 www. waternomics. eu
PILOT SITES Corporate Public THERMI, GREECE LINATE AIRPORT, MILIAN GALWAY, IRELAND Domestic users and utility Corporate users School and University Users • Technical – sensor locations, data and communication architecture; • Reporting – relevant KPI’s; • Economical – Cost/Benefit analysis; • Business Model – new services and value proposition; • Management and processes; • Certifications; • Savings – attributable savings based on availability of realtime water data for (i) novel business models, (ii) fault/leak detection, (iii) water network optimisation; • Corporate image– CSR; • Public Awareness. • Assess current SOTA metering and billing methodologies; • Detailed monitoring of usage characteristics; • Conduct data analysis / assessment • Implement and test leak and fault detection strategies; • Implement public water feedback and visualisation dashboard; • Test gamification system and gather feedback from users. LOCATION Municipality • • • KEY OUTCOMES • • • Identify, inform and gain consent of user-base; Detail assessment metrics; Link the Waternomics Platform to the Utility database; Gain feedback on feasibility and efficiency of flexible tariffing; Feedback from utilities and consumers on: personalised interaction with the system and ease of data accessibility; Evaluate efficacy of system in raising user awareness of water consumption, and changes in consumer behaviour. @WATERNOMICS_EU 7 www. waternomics. eu

CHILDHOOD OF APPS (M 4 -M 8) • Round table discussions • Interviews with stakeholders • Technical meetings at pilots • Initial ideas @WATERNOMICS_EU 15 www. waternomics. eu
APPS BECOME TEENAGERS (M 7 -M 9) • Features list • Scenarios draft for D 1. 1 • Paper prototypes • And 2 comic scenarios @WATERNOMICS_EU 16 www. waternomics. eu
APPS ENTER THEIR 20’S (M 9 -M 11) • User tests – 24 users involved – 11 hours of discussions – 3 languages • Many ideas tested – Some were rejected, others evolved and some new ones came up • Apps start to face reality @WATERNOMICS_EU 17 www. waternomics. eu
APPS IN THEIR 30’S (M 10 -TODAY) • All partners involved • First working prototypes • Support from Dataspace http: //vmwaternomics 02. deri. ie: 8002/ @WATERNOMICS_EU 18 www. waternomics. eu
KEY OUTCOMES • A “One size fits all” solution cannot help • But there are many common features among user types and pilots • So, how can we serve them all? –Provide an apps marketplace to select apps you need –Suggest apps based on user’s profile –Categorize apps based on needs and a business value chain (Monitor -> Learn -> Act -> Benchmark) @WATERNOMICS_EU 19 www. waternomics. eu
