Willie: The Water Management Solution for Industrial Sites

Challenges

The water challenges facing industrial operators

The context: growing water stress and tightening regulations. The consequence: the industrial sector as a whole (chemicals, pharmaceuticals, steel, manufacturing...) must get a firmer grip on how water is tracked and consumed.

Complex monitoring across multiple sources and uses

Industrial sites manage diverse water sources (municipal supply, boreholes, recycled water) and multiple use cases (process, cooling, utilities). Without a consolidated view, there's no way to identify savings opportunities, optimize recycling rates, or cross-analyze consumption against production output.

Inefficient processes and hidden costs

In industry, water costs far more than its purchase price: pumping, treatment, heating, and discharge can multiply the true cost by 5 to 10x. Without real-time monitoring of industrial water consumption, leaks and waste can go unnoticed for months.

Regulatory compliance under the microscope

Requirements are tightening, with penalties reaching up to €150,000 in fines and potential production shutdowns — on top of the pressure from EU taxonomy obligations and CSRD reporting on water intensity.

Without real-time monitoring, industrial operators expose themselves to non-compliance risk and reputational damage.
