    Description

    How do you transform Bilbao's 130-year-old, 740-kilometer sewer network into a proactive, data-driven utility? By integrating InfoWorks ICM and ICMLive into Acciona's "NETWIN" ecosystem, the city has moved from reactive maintenance to real-time predictive management. We'll dive into the technical journey of creating an operational digital twin capable of simulating tidal influences and intense Atlantic rainfall (+20% projected) to mitigate combined sewer overflows (CSOs). You'll learn how this integration provides a scalable road map for aging urban infrastructure, ensuring compliance with the new European Urban Wastewater Treatment Directive (2024/3019) while delivering long-term value beyond temporary subsidies.

    Key Learnings

    • Discover the core components required to transition a static hydraulic model into a real-time operational digital twin.
    • Learn about strategies to integrate meteorological forecasts and sensor data for proactive CSO management.
    • Learn about the synergy between Autodesk water technology and proprietary IoT platforms.
    • Learn about assessing the ROI of digital transformation in aging infrastructure, focusing on operational efficiency and regulatory compliance.
