INDIANAPOLIS, March 31, 2014 /PRNewswire/ -- Global Water
Technologies (OTC Pink: GWTR) notes increasing water prices and
limited supplies are increasing demand for tools that improve the
efficiency of water distribution systems.
The company has assembled innovative technologies for improving
water efficiency, ranging from sensors and software that reduce
leaks and pipeline rehabilitation techniques to customer dashboards
that improve usage data. All fit into the company's "People + Pipes
+ Policy" approach and can be used by water utilities to better
manage drinking water distribution and improve customer
service.
One example is GreenSuite, a new Software-as-a-Service (SaaS)
platform that helps utility customers better understand their
billing patterns, learn about conservation and infrastructure
issues and save money through rewards and competition. Such
services are being adopted among electric utilities, with companies
such as Opower providing demand-side solutions, and rapidly
increasing water rates and periods of shortage are highlighting the
need for similar water solutions.
Global Water Technologies is in discussions with potential
investors and water utilities about opportunities to deploy
GreenSuite in beta testing to improve service for water
customers.
Separately, the company has also submitted a proposal for a
national research project on water efficiency at airports, in
partnership with two leading universities and two private sector
partners.
Global Water Technologies organized the research team in
response for a request for proposals on an 18-month project to
identify management strategies that improve water efficiency at
airports in the United States. If
selected for the project, the research would begin in the second
half of the year.
