From Water Data to Verified Impact: AI-Powered Measurement and Reporting for Water Utilities and Projects
Program Name | From Water Data to Verified Impact: AI-Powered Measurement and Reporting for Water Utilities and Projects |
| Overview | Every water project at IDWS will be judged on the same question: can you prove the impact? Desalination, reuse, network efficiency and water conservation all generate results, but most organizations still track them in manual spreadsheets that regulators, investors and partners cannot verify. This hands-on workshop shows how to move to automated, AI-powered measurement of the indicators that matter to the water sector: water produced, consumed and reused, water footprint, network losses, energy intensity of desalination and the associated carbon emissions (the water-energy nexus), together with regulatory compliance. Participants learn how AI replaces manual data collection and validation with real-time monitoring, and how to turn that data into audit-ready sustainability reports that unlock financing, certification and international partnerships. Presenter: Emilia Villanueva Peral, CEO and Co-founder of Kit ESG, Vice President of EcoNova (Riyadh); previously spent more than a decade at Accenture, Shell and Grupo CMC. |
