Capgemini and Siemens: Pioneering the digital revolution in water utilities.

Water is our planet’s most precious resource, yet the global water sector faces unprecedented challenges – from massive water loss and ageing infrastructure to rising urban demand and increasing cyber threats. Capgemini and Siemens have joined forces to deliver a powerful ecosystem of digital solutions that help water utilities become more efficient, resilient, and sustainable.

Why digitalisation matters

  • Up to 33% of distributed water is lost globally, costing billions each year.
  • By 2050, 9 billion people, many living in cities, will put even more pressure on water systems.
  • Utilities face workforce shortages and a surge in cyberattacks.

Our joint approach

Capgemini and Siemens combine industrial automation, advanced software, and digital consulting to create low-risk, scalable transformation pathways. Our solutions deliver:

  • Improved energy savings and operational efficiency improvements through digitalisation.
  • Real-time monitoring, predictive maintenance, and AI-driven leak detection.
  • Enhanced cybersecurity and data-driven decision-making.

Proven impact

From Scottish Water’s digital evolution to smart metering and digital twins for global clients, our partnership delivers measurable results – reducing water loss, cutting costs, and improving customer satisfaction.
