We work with water and wastewater providers, councils and others on a local and global scale.
We’re committed to bringing positive change to the communities and environments of our customers.
Purpose-built and proven for water, Iota platforms and devices optimise asset management, support climate adaptation, enhance customer satisfaction and improve affordability
An enterprise IoT platform built from the ground up to manage water infrastructure and associated services. Leverage connected devices to drive powerful insights, operational efficiency and next-level customer experience.
A smart plug-and-play metering platform for businesses and smaller councils. Manage networks and usage anomalies with near real time monitoring of water, gas, trade waste and more. Sub-metering makes it possible for commercial customers to bill tenants or departments.
Detect and locate network leaks at scale and reduce non-revenue water losses with Sotto®. Available integrated into the Landis + Gyr W350 digital meter for the Australia & New Zealand market.
Proactively manage water networks and detect leaks on customer properties with the Curaᵀᴹ ultrasonic digital meter. De-risk your investment with remote upgrades, 15-year battery warranty, and open standards communication protocols. Also available with integrated sensor options, including pressure.
Digitise existing analogue meters to track water usage and detect leaks. Rapid and economical to deploy. Features device-driven alarms and cost-effective data capture for larger commercial meters.
Monitor and control low-pressure sewer systems remotely and in near-real time to reduce capex spend, enable cost-effective maintenance and proactively manage performance. The OneBox® portal enables remote control of individual units or whole networks including various operating modes such as storm, power outage, peak shifting, flushing.
Barwon Water is teaming up with Iota to meet the shared challenges facing the Victorian water sector with technology developed in the state.
Spark IoT has today announced a partnership with Iota, a subsidiary of South East Water (the water authority for the South East of Melbourne in Australia) to bring its enterprise IoT platform Lentic® and a new generation of smart water meter technology to local councils and water utilities in Aotearoa.
Fujitsu Australia and Iota have a strategic agreement for ongoing product development and implementation of the Lentic® platform, an enterprise IoT solution for the water utility sector.
Iota and our ecosystem of global partners support digital transformation in the water sector. Leveraging products, platforms and water domain expertise to combat the effects of climate change, population growth and rising customer expectations.
Owned by South East Water, Iota is uniquely positioned to share solutions, insights and learnings with our customers. Partnering with global organisations to deliver at scale.
Water operators globally face similar challenges in the management of water and wastewater networks – Iota’s solutions are purpose-built to help.
Stay up to date with our latest projects and partnerships.
