Tapping into a Solution: Addressing Water Scarcity in the US
Water scarcity is becoming more prevalent nationwide, and protecting our available water is imperative. CivilSense™, a comprehensive new water loss management service that pairs expertly trained field teams and actionable artificial intelligence (AI), enables municipalities to take effective, targeted action to protect drinking water supply. 
Defender Walls: The Backbone of Substation Physical Security
As energy consumption rises due to factors like population migration, the proliferation of data centers, and the surge in electric vehicles (EVs), the urgency to protect critical infrastructure has intensified. This heightened demand has led to long lead times for essential equipment, such as transformers, making it vital to safeguard these valuable assets.
What Municipalities Don’t Realize About Non-Revenue Water
Non-revenue water is a major issue in the United States, with an estimated 6bn gallons of treated water lost every single day. Many utilities understand that non-revenue water is a problem, and they are taking steps to address it, but in the absence of reliable real-world leakage data they may be operating on assumptions that are leading them to miss out on potential asset management efficiencies.
