2 Today s Goals 1) What is Water Loss? (10 min) 2) Water Loss Baseline AWWA Audits (20 min) 3) Intervention Strategies WRF Model (20 min) 4) Questions & Discussion throughout!
3 Water Systems Optimization Water Loss Audits Design and Implementation of Water Loss Control Programs Leak Detection Pressure Management Schemes Source Meter Testing Revenue Enhancement Programs
4 What Is Non-Revenue Water (NRW)???
5 What Is Non-Revenue Water (NRW)? Non Revenue Water consists of: Real Losses Apparent Losses
6 Apparent Losses
7 Real Losses
8 Benefits of Water Loss Control REAL LOSSES APPARENT LOSSES Saves WATER! Does not save water Creates an additional supply defers capital expenditures and marginal supply development Optimizes REVENUE GENERATION
9 What Can Happen without NRW Management?
10 Benefits of NRW Management Save Water Reduce Costs Culture of Accountability Identify what you DON T know Comprehensive understanding of your system Financial Benefits Reduction in O&M & CIP costs Better Asset Management Optimized Meter Replacement/Management Water Conservation (Supply Side & Demand Side) Sustainability (Water/Energy Nexus) Be Ahead of Regulatory Arena Less Liability Build Credibility with Stakeholders and Regulators
11 How Can We Strategically Manage NRW?? Detailed Water Audit Conduct Detailed AWWA Water Audit to Quantify NRW Volume and its Components Real Losses and Apparent Losses Component Analysis Component Analysis of Real Losses Component Analysis of Apparent Losses Water Audit Phase Economics Assessment of Economic Real Loss Intervention Strategies Assessment of Economic Apparent Loss Intervention Strategies Implement NRW Strategy Real Loss Control and Intervention Apparent Loss Control and Intervention Sustainable NRW Management
