This pilot action by the Municipal Water and Sewerage Company of Komotini (DEYAK) includes the preparation of a Water Resources Management Study (demand and supply under various climate scenarios) to assess the future stress on the drinking water supply system in the Aigeiros municipal unit due to climate change.

It also involves the procurement and installation of a permanent Automatic Water Meter Recording System, comprising 1,250 wireless data transmitters, 6 data collection hubs, and 2 data repeaters across Fanari, Arogi, and Paralia Mesis, along with the required software. This setup forms a telemetry-based dynamic water management system for the region, enabling immediate detection of consumption variations and effective control over drinking water distribution.

Problem Addressed: Prevention of potable water waste and rapid response to water supply network faults.
