        Siemens technology – creating ingenuity for life

        The water and wastewater industry worldwide is being challenged like never before. With aging infrastructure, operators must meet rising customer demand and plan for the uncertain effects of climate change. Particularly in countries like Australia, where water sources are relatively limited, asset management, digital technology and operational efficiency are key success factors. By connecting hardware, software and data, Siemens' solutions help address precisely those market issues and guide customers on the journey to the ‘smart utility’.
