Many of Europe’s countries and municipalities can no longer cope with their tasks. Large water losses in old pipes and severe environmental damage after overflows and floods require astronomical costs. But there is a solution.
The Swedish and global energy market is facing major challenges. The increasing amount of variable renewable energy (VRE) in the market mix requires new priorities. This is because green energy sources are less predictable than fossil and nuclear energy.
Most European municipalities today have ancient water and sewage systems, which are unable to handle growing populations and climate challenges. But there are solutions. Here are nine important reasons for investing in Smart Water.
Much technological development is good, but AI is not the solution to everything and every problem. Many of the AI projects and digital twins built in industry remain isolated projects without being able to be applied.
Overflows is a major and growing societal and environmental problem. It is a challenge that most Swedish municipalities struggle with daily. However, there are smart solutions, like Calejo’s new Smart Water platform, that limit or eliminate these problems.
Calejo is building a completely new platform under the name Smart Water, with which Sweden's municipalities will be able to optimize their water and sewage systems. This knowledge is now being transferred to create value for hydropower as well.
The water and sewage industry is facing very big challenges. The systems are old with enormous investment needs in maintenance, renewal and upgrades. The solution to many of these problems is the necessary investment in digitization and AI.
During the first half of 2022, Calejo and Sweco, together with the company Esatto, conducted an innovation sprint. The goal has been to build a bridge between systems and users by creating a new user interface for the new AI platform Smart Water.
The energy market is becoming increasingly complex. Completely new types of energy are added continuously and the proportion of variable renewable energy (VRE) is growing rapidly. For energy companies, the use of AI has become a matter of survival.
Hydropower in Sweden faces major environmental and production challenges. Its importance as a base and control power is increasing, which also places demands on further optimization with the help of AI. But at the same time, the challenges are many.
Peter Johansson, who is CEO of the listed technology consulting company Eurocon, sees a great need to optimize the industries of the future with the help of AI.
Within the Calejo Smart Energy business area, Calejo is developing completely new tools for more reliable forecasts of energy production and of energy prices. A recent market study shows that there is a great market need for Calejo's energy services.
- There is no doubt that with the help of AI we get better decision support and in time autonomous production plants. But to get there leading suppliers first need to develop scalable and open solutions, says Lars Almkvist, Valmet.
Together with Sweco, Calejo is building a new Smart Water platform to help Swedish municipalities to optimize their water supply and sewerage systems. The knowledge from here is now transferred to creating value for hydropower as well.
Overflows is a major and growing societal and environmental problem. It is also a challenge that most Swedish municipalities more or less struggle with on a daily basis. However, there are smart solutions that limit or eliminate these problems.
