District Heating Networks
Anticipate weaknesses, localize leaks, and secure thermal network integrity from space.
Is your network winter-ready?
Seeking to ensure your heat district network will go through the Winter without failure or localise a failure rapidly? Wanting to map pipes that have not been properly documented and recorded or assess the health of a network before an M&A deal?
Our regular network-specific reports provide you with a precise and easy-to-read map of your network which helps you to detect potential weaknesses and enable you to take action before your customers may get impacted by a leak in your pipe and a loss of energy.
Legacy Infrastructure
- Binary Alerts: Vague reports flagging standard 1.5 km warning sectors.
- Time-Consuming: Manual leak location searches take 1 to 5 days on average.
- High Costs: Drone flights or manual excavation runs 10,000 to 15,000 € per leak.
- Reactive Focus: Operators wait for winter failures before initiating repair measures.
Satellite-Based Monitoring
- Pinpoint Accuracy: Exact GPS coordinates, reducing manual search areas by 90%.
- Weekly Updates: Steady flow of situational intelligence in place of annual snapshots.
- Cost-Effective: Direct savings compared to drone hires and inspections.
- Proactive Action: Detect and fix minor anomalies prior to seasonal frost.
Measurable Performance Metrics
Flat rate pricing of 220 CHF/€ per kilometer annually. 50% cheaper than drone scans.
Prevents daily active water losses of 1 to 3 cubic meters per detected leak.
Compare network heat anomalies over time with records extending back to 2017.
Frictionless Network Onboarding
No system integration required. We cross-validate space observations with your existing GIS plans to create an easy-to-read map of your network.
