Transient detection helping Scottish Water prevent bursts

摘要

Scottish Water says it has prevented 2,000 bursts from happening in 2018 - saving £2 million - through its work detecting and responding to transients. Scottish Water said it is the first water utility in the UK to use innovative technology to predict the location and timing of where a burst will happen. It does this by looking at the cause and effect of previous bursts, as well as previous customer contact in relation to bursts, and works out where future incidents might occur.
