Safe water is not enough...

The UN targets aim for universal access to drinking water and the specifically aims to “ensure availability and sustainable management of water and sanitation for all’ and includes targets for universal access to safe drinking water. But how is progress monitored?

The World Health Organization Joint Monitoring Program created the Safely managed drinking water services (SMDWS), a service ladder used to monitor drinking water for the Sustainable Development Goal (SDG), expanding on the Millennium Development Goal metric (“improved water source”) with three additional criteria, namely: availability when needed, accessibility on premises, and safety (free from faecal and priority chemical contamination).

This ladder classifies drinking water services into 5 categories: safely managed, basic, limited, unimproved and surface water.

Here at CityTaps, we work closely with water providers and municipalities to supply safely managed water in every home.

Aurélie Guibert joined the CityTaps team thanks to an International Fixed-term Contract (VIE) which gives young people the opportunity to work abroad for a French company. After working in the energy sector., Aurélie enjoys the mix that sales and project management offers - contact with customers in the field, understanding their challenges and proposing the most appropriate solutions.

For Aurélie, the word that best describes CityTaps is perseverance... because projects cycles can be long and CityTaps supports each of its clients over the long term.

Maureen Oginya joined CityTaps a few months ago as Sales Manager. She is an expert of the water sector in Kenya, having worked closely with all water utilities for the past 7 years and she is also very active in different water associations ( Water Services Providers Association-Waspa-Kenya WASPA and Women in Water & Sanitation Association Kenya WIWAS).

"CityTaps solutions combine many benefits – they enable water utilities to reduce their bad debt and therefore invest in their water infrastructure to better serve the population and they also benefit citizens allowing them to access clean and safe water" explains Maureen "This is my everyday passion.... Running water in every home".

CityTaps has been active in Kenya since the development of its Pay-As-You-Go smart meter solution.

"The use of technology is no longer an option; it is a necessity. Our main priority is metering and billing - that is the bread and butter of utility operations, and [crucial for] cash flow." explains a MAWASCO staff

The digitalization of water utilities requires global support to ensure that local teams can obtain the best results in addition to taking ownership of the solution.

CityTaps supports utilities throughout every phase of the project from strategy to HR change management, financial management, commercial and technical training to end user services.

It's not because it's invisible that it does not exist... 90% of physical water losses💧are not visible: underground leakages due to ageing infrastructure or poor maintenance represent colossal water and financial losses. Time ⏱ is key in reducing these losses as visible leaks or bursts are often repaired in priority, while invisible leaks last for months and eventually amount to higher levels of losses. Innovative solutions can be deployed to localize underground leakages... from the air and in the field!

Record heat waves force authorities and water supply companies to impose water use restrictions.
It is becoming more important that ever to reduce Non-Revenue Water (NRW), the volume of water which never reaches the consumer or has never been paid for... in both cases resulting in losses !
Both California and the European Union are enforcing new regulations (eg. EU Directive 2020/2184) to assess the current levels of NRW, define new targets and action plans for the coming 6-8 years.
Indeed, the latest global figure is huge ... 126 billions of m3 of water extracted from the natural resource are lost worldwide.
It's more than time to deploy technolgoies and services to reduce this figure.

2.1 billion people lack access to clean, safe and affordable water. The poor are the most impacted by this lack of access to water and the consequences on their health, time and money are multiplied:
- Water-related diseases impact the vulnerable, especially children who miss school days impacting their access to education
- Millions of hours spent every day by women and girls to fetch water affecting their education and productivity
- Cost of substitutes to clean water (public water points, chlorine tablets, delivery services...) are expensive resulting in the poorest paying a higher cost for water than the rest of the population

LoRaWAN technology is essential to CityTaps' smart and PAYGO water solutions. It remains the only radio protocol that can ensure a 10-year battery lifespan while handling bidirectional communications for downloading hourly meter readings and alarms or uploading frequent top-up information.

In addition, the LoRaWAN technology can be used to deploy a private network in areas where other communication networks are not accessible or stable enough, an essential functionality for CityTaps PAYGO solution in developing countries.

Come and join our CEO Grégoire Landel tomorrow during the panel session at LoRaWAN World Expo in Paris about "Sustainability, Profitability, Resilience with LoRaWAN for smart utilities"

Malindi Water & Sewerage Company Limited: "We started the PAYGO project with over 6M KSh in debts... and, believe you me, we are now at 1,2M KSh. That's what PAYGO meters have done for us" explained Elisha Karisa, Area Manager at Malindi Water. PAYGO meters help beneficiaries improve their household budget by paying for water at anytime and for any amount.

CityTaps has developed the only Pay-As-You-Go system that manages billing in real time.
End users can credit their water wallet at any time, with any amount and from anywhere. There is no need to be beside the meter to use a code or a smart card.
As debits are based on real-time consumption, regulated billing plans based on step tariffs are respected, just like a post-paid system.
