Business value Solution Opportunity KERLINK & AIUT INSTALL LARGEST SMART LoRaWAN NETWORK IN POLAND FOR WATER-SUPPLY-SYSTEM MONITORING AND MANAGEMENT "The network in Piekary Śląskie confirms that smart-city systems provide the same benefits to all cities – no matter their size. Water-purchase optimization, incident and leak detection, e-billing and lower service fees are just some of the benefits of implementing such smart solutions," Artur Gabryś, director of the Smart City IoT Division at AIUT. • AIUT provides cities with flexible, easy-to-use and quick-to implement systems for remote, stationary utility-meter readouts, measurement and leak detection based on the best and most cost- effective technologies. • The hourly and daily readouts provide real-time monitoring of the municipal water supply network's operation, while reducing operating costs for the water utility. • This is the first implementation of its kind and scale in Poland, covering an entire city and utilizing LoRaWAN technology. The system also opens the way for development of smart-city applications and shows that the inevitable use of IoT technology is the strategic direction for the Polish economy to develop, which has been confirmed by the Polish Ministry of Digitization. • Kerlink a specialist in solutions dedicated to the Internet of Things (IoT), and AIUT, an international expert in IoT-dedicated solutions, have completed Poland's largest LoRaWAN® network for water- supply monitoring and management using Kerlink Wirnet™ LoRaWAN gateways and AIUT's sensors. • AIUT deployed the wireless network in Piekary Śląskie, a city of 55,000 residents spread across 40 square kilometres.
