Mounce Hydrosmart part of the winning team for the Outstanding partnership in sustainability and the environment category in the Knowledge Exchange and Impact Awards 2024 (August 2024)


Awarded for a University of Sheffield partnership with Mounce Hydrosmart, Siemens, and Yorkshire Water to develop, prove, and roll out a novel artificial intelligence technique that predicts water depths using rainfall data, compares these to the measured depth within a combined sewer overflow chamber, and alerts the water utility to any unexpectedly high depths which could lead to a pollution incident. The research has resulted in a commercial, cloud-based solution – the Siemens Water Blockage Predictor – currently in use across the entire Yorkshire Water region.
