Water monitoring
A
‘PRIORITISE RESOURCES WHERE OPERATIONAL RISK IS HIGHEST’ He adds: “The flow-cytometric evidence from the combination of our BactoSense, BactoSwitch and BactoCloud acts to show which springs are most variable and rainfall-sensitive. This then allows WWZ to prioritise resources where operational risk is highest, which is a major benefit that for any concerned water provider makes our protective systems a must-have. “The overall result is a resilient, more predictable supply, supported by data-driven operational decisions and vastly improved public safety.”
bNovate’s spring water monitoring solution has become a cornerstone of WWZ’s water quality assurance, delivering actionable microbiological results from the plant, 24/7.

BB has been selected by the German Agency for International Cooperation (GIZ) and the Water Authority of Jordan to provide its ABB
Genix Industrial IoT and AI Suite for water and energy data management to help address the nation’s water management challenges by improving energy efficiency across the sector. Jordan is currently ranked as the 15th most water scarce country in the world. As part of the project, ABB will also deliver comprehensive training and support to its in-country partner, Volt Automation LLC, to ensure effective implementation of Genix. The solution is designed to optimise operations and improve sustainability across water utilities using integrated, contextualised real- time data from multiple assets that enables operational efficiencies and cost savings. Within the water sector, Genix can be used to monitor and analyse energy consumption in a range of settings, including pumping stations, treatment plants and distribution networks, enabling operators to make data- informed decisions to improve water resource management, achieve higher energy efficiency and provide consistent service delivery. “We believe that digital technology is key to making better-informed decisions, sooner,” says Wissam Assaf, head of Global Partner Business at ABB’s Energy Industries and Process Industries divisions. “By leveraging digital innovation and energy-efficient solutions, we can help Jordan build a more sustainable and resilient water sector. Through
our collaboration with local partners, we aim to empower communities, optimise resource use and contribute to a better future for all.” Jordan is among the most water-scarce countries in the world, with only 61m³ per capita a year of renewable water resources. A growing population, agricultural expansion and the impacts of climate change are increasing the pressure on Jordan’s water supplies. The country remains committed to progressing its National Climate Change Policy 2022-2050, which includes action for supporting water supply, conservation and related infrastructure development. “We are proud to work closely with ABB on this scope of work, demonstrating how digital innovation and partnership drives both economic and environmental progress,” says Sinan Hiasat, general manager at Volt Automation. “We look forward to delivering tangible results for the water sector in Jordan, leveraging the capabilities of Genix to monitor, report and reduce energy consumption, establish water balance visibility, and enable better decision making on critical initiatives.”
In September 2025, ABB was recognised as a Leader in the 2025 Gartner Magic Quadrant for Global Industrial IoT Platforms. ABB views the recognition as a reflection of the company’s continued commitment to delivering innovative industrial AI and IoT solutions that empower industries to operate leaner and cleaner.
