Control your consumption remotely thanks to ON’Connect™ metering

Designed and deployed for more than 15 years, the ON'connect™ metering remote reading solution is a concrete tool for local authorities who want to improve their water management. 

Water consumption reduction and resource preservation: these issues have never been more important for communities and water services in the face of the climate emergency and the effects of drought on a global scale.

Analysing data daily from smart water meters, SUEZ has developed digital services to support you, local authorities and users, in controlling consumption and detecting leaks.

Open and scalable, ON'connect™ metering is a solution adapted to all territories that already equips more than 6 million water meters worldwide. 
We provide you with real expertise across the entire data value chain: supply of connected equipment, deployment of IoT communicating networks with Wize technology, data science and processing of collected data, software publishing and mobile applications.

Preserve resources with water meter remote reading

Utilizing data from smart water meters, local authorities, water operators and users can act to preserve resources.

With a smart water meter, private and professional users:

  • Avoid disturbances thanks to remote assistance 
  • Benefit from accurate billing of their consumption  
  • Can monitor their consumption on a daily basis and receive alerts in the event of leakage or overconsumption
  • Reduce their environmental footprint and save water and energy: - €200 / household per year 


Thanks to remote reading, local authorities:

  • Reduce water losses on their territory by up to -15% 
  • Reduce the carbon footprint of their water service = - 30% of CO2 emissions
  • Have a global view of the territory's water consumption, which allows them to monitor the impact of water restriction measures

For water service operators, remote reading of water meters allows: 

  • Optimisation of the management of the water meter fleet and the network 
  • 1 to 2% improvement in network performance  
  • A better quality of service provided to users
  • Securing revenue through improved billing and reducing water losses

Le Mans Métropole saves money with remote meter reading!

Since 2018, SUEZ has deployed 120,000 smart water meters in the territory of Le Mans Métropole. The goal? To provide a better quality of service to residents, by providing them with accurate information on water consumption, and alerts in the event of leaks or overconsumption.


To optimise its water network, improve efficiency and enhance customer satisfaction, the water authority has also opted for the AQUADVANCED® Water Networks real-time water management system.

The result, thanks to the combination of data from remote reading and the hydraulic network, is concrete benefits for the community and users:

  • The responsiveness in tracking down leaks on the network significantly improves hydraulic efficiency: in one sector in particular, the daily night flow has been reduced by 30m3/h, equivalent to a gain of 250,000 m3 per year and €125,000 saved!
  • The alerts have drastically reduced the requests for relief related to leaks.
