The Challenge
Despite ongoing efforts, the water utility was looking for a solution to speed up leak detection across a large portion of its urban network. The objective: reduce water losses quickly while optimizing operational and production costs.
The Leakmited Solution
Sicoval deployed the Sprint solution from Leakmited — a performance-based approach where payment is only made for measurable results.
Rollout details:
- Two-week intensive leak detection campaign
- 100 km of network investigated
- Complementary to existing actions already in place at Sicoval
113,700 m³ of water saved over one year
50% reduction in drinking water losses
950 equivalent to the annual consumption of 950 households
€90,600 saved in water production and distribution.
A measurable and lasting impact
Thanks to Leakmited’s Sprint solution, Sicoval accelerated its water loss reduction program and optimized resource use. This collaboration shows how AI-powered, performance-based methods can transform urban water management—delivering fast, measurable, and lasting improvements.
