THE MAGAZINE FOR THE DRAINAGE, WATER & WASTEWATER INDUSTRIES


NEWDESK


this is the most important new development in the industry over the past 20 years.


We now have a fleet of electric jetters operating in the Netherlands and it was fantastic to hand over the UK’s first eCityJet to Kwik Jet in central London last month.


The new jetter is powered by highly-efficient lithium-ion batteries and offers comparable performance to its petrol and diesel counterparts, whilst running silently and with zero emissions. Kwik Jet has been using the eCityJet on a daily basis, undertaking approximately four planned maintenance jobs a day. After the first week of use the jetter had only used only 50% of the battery without the need to recharge.


As businesses in the industry increasingly focus their efforts on becoming more agile, monitoring and gathering data will be at the forefront of future developments. The introduction of smart drain technology to monitor wastewater and pinpoint emerging


make their businesses leaner, but it will facilitate better monitoring and control across an entire fleet.


Advancements in battery technologies have also allowed us to create the world’s first electric van-pack jetter, the eCityJet. While it is true that the concept of an electric van-pack jetter has taken some time to convince customers, in my opinion,


problems is already proving beneficial for preventative measures, and I can only see that growing in use and importance over the coming years.
