Digital Water Solutions Market

Global Digital Water Solutions Market Size (2024-2032):

The size of the global digital water solutions market was worth US$ 40.53 Billion in 2023. The global market is anticipated to grow at a CAGR of 30.8% from 2024 to 2032 and be worth US$ 454.20 billion by 2032 from US$ 53 billion in 2024. 

Current Scenario of the Global Digital Water Solutions Market

The path and timeline through which our risk-averse industry is learning to embrace and scale digital water solutions. There are more important forces at work. Additionally, digital water solutions enable the adoption of other innovative technologies, such as off-grid and on-premises systems. Water professionals are often considered, and rightly so, conservative, cautious, or late-following. However, several powerful trends are making digital water no longer optional, but inevitable. The water sector can learn fundamental lessons from how digital technologies are disrupting other industries. Water utility managers may have been comfortable or even satisfied with analog systems and the idea of ​​stationarity.

Digital water solutions offer various products and technologies for implementation by water and wastewater providers, including water hardware, software, services and technologies, data collection, analytical tools, and advanced technologies such as artificial intelligence and machine learning. Digital water solutions are also given the term smart water. With the assistance of digital water technology, growing economies can advance and manage localized and off-grid water systems and create high models that can assist integrate pumps, valves, sensors, and other smart equipment and send data in time. It's also self-destructive, filled with wasted time, wasted efficiency, and stranded assets. Once again, utilities can literally "go with the flow" of digital supply and call, working in partnership with newcomers to the world of water.

MARKET TRENDS

According to a report by the Ontario Commissioner for the Environment, leaks cost municipalities in the province up to 40% of their drinking water. Digital Water Solutions (DWS) technology is changing that. The Ontario-based company has created a monitoring device that sits inside a standard fire hydrant, listening for noises that indicate potential problems in the water system.

MARKET DRIVERS

The main factors driving the expansion of the global industry for digital water solutions are the escalating call for quality water services and the escalating digitization of the utility industry.

Utilities are focused on reducing carbon emissions and developing smart water solutions, which are predicted to drive the digital water solutions industry during the forecast period. Fast, frictionless, and ubiquitous mobile/web systems have redefined previously complex and invisible energy flow into simple, clear, parsed, and packaged data.

MARKET RESTRAINTS

However, the lack of a digitally skilled workforce is a limiting factor for the expansion of the global digital water solutions industry.

MARKET OPPORTUNITIES

The global digital water solutions market is predicted to experience strong expansion during the forecast period due to the escalating need to replace aging water infrastructure which is predicted to drive industry call for digital water solutions over the course of the foreseen period. Key factors driving industry expansion include the escalating call for quality water services, the need to replace ageing water infrastructure, the escalating digitization of the utility sector, and government regulations favouring the development of smart water solutions.
