The market of Utilities has become very competitive, with reduced margins and increased expectations in terms of energy supply and safety from extreme events.
The effects of a poor planning may result in high costs of inefficiencies, penalties and possible damages.
“How to optimize water management and reduce the consequences of extreme events?”
Waterjade offers tailored services to monitor water availability in the upstream catchment and predict the inflow of water for the coming days and months.
Waterjade improves the efficiency of short-term forecasts (+5 days) by combining high-resolution weather forecasts and real-time snow monitoring with artificial intelligence and physical models. In this way we are able follow the whole water cycle.
The result is an accurate prediction of water inflow to each production plant or reservoir, with hourly aggregation for the next 5 days.
Thanks to Waterjade we can help to achieve the following benefits:
Planning in advance the expected production of a plant for the next months is becoming ever more important. Current methods, like the historical mean, fail to account for the actual watershed condition (see snow presence) and the expected evolution for the next months.
Waterjade improves the efficiency of long-range forecasts (+6 months) by calibrating a machine learning model on historical data and, on top, updating the initial condition with current snow monitoring and feeding the model with the seasonal forecast deriving from the most prestigious weather centers.
The result is an accurate prediction of producibility for the next 6 months with monthly aggregation, tailored on each production plant or reservoir.
