description Abstract Smart water enables utilities, regulators, and customers to make more timely and informed decisions about how they use and regard their water resources. It has been developed to assist demand management by influencing customer behavior and reducing network leakage, lowering energy consumption, and avoiding deploying assets that are not actually needed. Smart water has seen an evolution toward monitoring wastewater applications. Challenges include the need for common operating standards and more cohesive national policy frameworks. As a result, smart water adoption occurs on a utility‐by‐utility basis.
