Smart sewer solutions from UK-based telemetry and analytics business will empower the industry to meet the challenges of climate change
Grundfos has completed the acquisition of XPV Water Partners portfolio company Metasphere, a leading provider of telemetry and analytics solutions for water networks.
By adding the capabilities of Metasphere to its portfolio, Grundfos is set to provide its global municipal customers even stronger offerings. The partnership will help make water networks worldwide more robust in the face of climate change, solving a pressing global challenge.
Water system failures cost cities a total of $194 billion annually – a number which will rise with climate change and resulting extreme weather events.
Sewer networks are heavily impacted, but with Internet-of-Things-enabled hardware and weather data, coupled with strong analytics, the challenges can be significantly reduced.
