Description

Over the last decade, Europe has experienced water stress due to unprecedented weather disruptions that have affected both water availability and quality. In response, the European Union has revised its water directives, expanding the scope of monitoring and implementing more stringent standards. France, Germany, the United Kingdom, Italy, Spain, and the BENELUX nations have adopted policies aimed at improving water conservation by reducing consumption and minimizing water leakage. Europe is making significant investments in the digitalization of its water and wastewater networks to optimize operations, enhance compliance, and respond more quickly to events such as leaks, quality issues, or pipe bursts, ensuring a high quality of service. IoT-based sensor solution providers and water utilities are exploring innovative business models based on Outcomes as a Service. These models enable customers to derive multiple benefits from real-time data collection. Cloud-native software and data analytics solutions have unlocked untapped potential by incorporating advanced AI and ML models to identify complex patterns and develop more optimized operations. In addition, AI-enabled digital twin solutions are transforming the market by allowing end customers to predict potential failure points or disruptive events while offering prescriptive analyses for necessary actions. The market for smart real-time water monitoring solutions is expected to grow at a CAGR of 8.6%, reaching $2.81 billion by 2032. Key market segments include quantity measurement sensors (such as leak detection sensors), quality monitoring and measurement sensors, and software and data analytics solutions, including digital twins.
