DATA RIGHT HIT THE NT!- NHULUNBUY CORPORATION

Data Right hit the Northern Territory on October 11th 2022!

Smart Water Meter installations began on the 11th October 2022 in Nhulunbuy.

The Nhulunbuy Corporation is set to introduce Taggle Systems’ smart water metering solution to replace andaugment the current water meters in order to improve accuracy of water bills, reduce water waste in leaks, increase meter reliability and improve customer service.

Nhulunbuy is located on the Gove Peninsula in the Northern Territory, approximately a nine hour drive from Katherine via the Central Arnhem Road, and is the largest town in East Arnhem Land. Nhulunbuy is the service centre for nearby mining operations and the commercial base for the East Arnhem region.

The Smart Water Meters will provide the ability to collect hourly water consumption data on every household and business in Nhulunbuy and the nearby Industrial Estate, enabling quick and easy identification of leaks or issues in the water infrastructure. This will be a powerful tool for both the Finance and Infrastructure departments.

Installation will also involve Taggle’s authorised technicians accessing the water meters on each property. This process will result in the property losing water supply for a short period of time, during the installation itself.

The installation began on the 11th of October 2022, and included all residential & commercial properties.
