Case Study: Veitur Utilities achieves smarter geothermal monitoring with akenza.io

Veitur Utilities monitors a 27-km geothermal pipeline with akenza.io

Veitur Utilities, Iceland's largest utility company, faced the challenge of efficiently monitoring its vast geothermal hot water pipeline network, particularly in remote areas lacking power and reliable communications. They partnered with akenza.io and its IoT platform to implement a remote monitoring solution to enhance reliability and enable predictive maintenance.

akenza.io's solution utilized battery and solar-powered LoRaWAN sensors to transmit pressure data from remote valve houses, seamlessly integrating it into Veitur's systems. This provided real-time insights and eliminated the need for frequent manual inspections. The results included a significant reduction in operational costs, a minimized environmental footprint from fewer site visits, and enhanced decision-making for preventative maintenance, allowing Veitur to ensure a reliable hot water supply.
