Water Meters, Quality Sensors, and Leak Detection Systems: Pioneering Smart Solutions for Efficient Urban and Industrial Water Management

BOSTON, Nov. 14, 2024 /PRNewswire/ — According to the latest study from BCC Research “The global market for water meters” is estimated to reach $19.3 billion by 2029, at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 4.5% from 2024 through 2029.

The global market for water meters, water quality sensors, and leak detectors is segmented by product type, technology, and end-use (industrial, household, and commercial). Industrial end use, in which water plays a key role, is driving demand for these products. BCC Research assesses the market through 2029, covering water meters (standard, electronic, smart), technology (automated readers, advanced metering), and end-use. Water quality sensors are analyzed by application (drinking water, wastewater), and leak detectors by product type (acoustic, non-acoustic) and action (continuous, non-continuous). Market values are projected from 2023, with regional forecasts for Asia-Pacific, Europe, North America and RoW.

This report is especially relevant now due to the growing global demand for water and the critical need for efficient water management solutions. Water management devices, such as meters, quality sensors, and leak detectors, have become essential for monitoring consumption, assessing water quality, and preventing water loss or runoff. Increasing concerns about water contamination and pollution have heightened the awareness of the need to analyze water quality worldwide. The integration of IoT and smart technologies has further driven the demand for smart water meters, which provide real-time data and analysis via app or web-based platforms. Additionally, increasing scarcity of water has created an urgency for water conservation and preservation efforts. Since leaks contribute significantly to water loss and non-revenue water, the implementation of leak detectors is vital for locating and preventing unnecessary water loss and damage.

The following factors are driving the global market for water meters:

Growing Urbanization and Smart City Initiatives: As urbanization accelerates, efficient water management systems become vital. Smart city initiatives increasingly rely on smart water meters, which provide real-time water usage data, detect leaks, and support conservation efforts. These technologies are essential for optimizing water resource management in crowded urban areas.

Concerns over Water Pollution and Contamination: Industrial growth and urbanization have heightened water pollution concerns. Water quality sensors play a crucial role in detecting contaminants, ensuring the safety of water supplies, and protecting public health.

Industrial use of Water Quality Sensors: the manufacturing, agriculture, and wastewater treatment industries require constant water quality monitoring to meet environmental regulations and optimize operational efficiency. Sensors track parameters such as pH, turbidity, and conductivity, providing essential data for both process control and environmental management.

Shareholder Call Scheduled for November 15, 2024 at 10 a.m. EST/7 a.m. PST

VANCOUVER, BC, Nov. 14, 2024 /PRNewswire/ — GreenPower Motor Company Inc. (Nasdaq: GP) (TSXV: GPV) (“GreenPower” and the “Company”), a leading manufacturer and distributor of all-electric, purpose-built, zero-emission medium and heavy-duty vehicles serving the cargo and delivery market, shuttle and transit space and school bus sector, today reported its second quarter fiscal year 2025 results and provided an update on its manufacturing operations.

“GreenPower spent the quarter advancing the school bus production process at its West Virginia facility by setting up an oversized paint booth and establishing production stations to increase throughput in order to meet customer orders and demands,” said GreenPower President Brendan Riley. “The increase in production coupled with manufacturing process improvements is expected to result in higher gross profit margins and cost reductions on a per unit basis as throughput improves.”

Riley said that the Company has been systematically increasing its production workforce to provide for its growing production. “Putting the workforce in place and validating the manufacturing process is key to our efficiency, and production growth which is expected to drive cost savings on a per unit basis. With these in place, GreenPower will be able to attain its longer-term manufacturing goal of producing 20 school buses per month,” he said, noting that steady, measured growth, a foundation of GreenPower’s model, is critical for maintaining quality throughout the production process.

“The growth in production complements GreenPower’s sales strategy of focusing on states where there are money and mandates for electric school buses,” added Fraser Atkinson, CEO of GreenPower. “While we continue to manufacture and sell EV school buses for current orders and contracts under both state and federal programs, the future is more focused on states that have put policies and plans in place to provide a cleaner, healthier ride for students through the deployment of electric school buses. States like California and New York, and regions like the Southwest.”

During the second quarter of GreenPower’s fiscal year 2025, the manufacturing process was exhibited when the Company produced the first Type D BEAST all-electric, purpose-built, zero-emission school bus for the 37 BEAST order from the state of West Virginia from its South Charleston plant, which was delivered at the beginning of our current quarter.  That was the second BEAST produced in the facility following the production of the Kanawha County bus purchased directly by the school district outside of the state order. Additional deliveries to fulfill the state order are planned to take place in the third and fourth quarters.

Second Quarter 2025 Highlights:

Generated revenues of $5.3 million for the three months ended September 30, 2024, an increase of 78% over the previous quarter.Delivered 11 BEAST Type D all-electric school buses, six EV Star Cargo and EV Star Cargo Plus and five EV Star Passenger Vans.Deferred revenue increased to $10.4 million, including the current portion of $7.5 million, which is expected to be realized over the next year.At the end of the quarter GreenPower had working capital of $10.1 million including inventory of $31.7 million consisting of $9.3 million of finished goods, $18.6 million of work-in-process and $3.8 million of parts and components.Received order for school buses under EPA’s Clean School Bus Program from the RWC Group for Arizona.

In October the Company completed an underwritten offering of 3,000,000 common shares raising gross proceeds of $3 million. The net proceeds from this offering are intended for the production of all-electric vehicles, including BEAST school buses and EV Star commercial vehicles, product development, with the remainder, if any, for general corporate purposes.  

For additional information on the results of operations for the periods ended September 30, 2024 review the interim financial statements and related reports posted on GreenPower’s website as well as on www.sedar.com or filed on EDGAR.
