WI.Plat Leads Smart Water Revolution in Kyrgyzstan

WI.Plat Leads Smart Water Revolution in Kyrgyzstan

 

WI.Plat is proud to announce the launch of its flagship international initiative in Central Asia—the Establishment of a Smart Water Management System Roadmap for the Kyrgyz Republic. As the lead implementing agency under the 2024/25 KSP-EBRD Joint Consulting Program, WI.Plat is bringing its award-winning AI-powered technologies and global expertise to the capital city of Bishkek. The project kicked off with a high-level meeting at Bishkekvodocanal, where our CEO, Mr. Sanghoon Cha, introduced Korea’s smart water innovations to key stakeholders including KEXIM, EBRD, and Kyrgyz national agencies. This milestone reaffirms WI.Plat’s position as a global pioneer in intelligent water loss management and climate-resilient urban infrastructure.

On the Ground: WI.Plat’s Technology-Driven Survey for Future Planning

During the February 2025 field survey, WI.Plat’s expert team conducted on-site inspections of Bishkek’s water treatment plants, pipeline facilities, and metering systems. Our in-depth analysis revealed critical gaps in automation, data availability, and water resource monitoring. Leveraging our experience from successful projects across Asia, WI.Plat identified high-impact opportunities for implementing smart metering, AI-based leak detection, and real-time pressure monitoring. These efforts will directly inform the creation of a locally customized Smart Water Management Roadmap—designed to optimize operations, reduce non-revenue water (NRW), and improve groundwater sustainability.

What’s Next: WI.Plat’s Roadmap to Sustainable Water Innovation

WI.Plat is now steering the next phases of the project, including detailed system analysis, policy-maker training programs in Korea, and the development of implementation-ready project models. A second field mission is planned for May 2025 to expand site diagnostics and engage local stakeholders further. As we work closely with partners like the EBRD and KOICA, WI.Plat continues to lead the way in delivering innovative, scalable, and sustainable solutions to the most pressing water challenges worldwide. Our mission is clear: empower cities like Bishkek with the tools and knowledge to build resilient, data-driven water systems for generations to come.

WI.Plat Successfully Completes Smart Water Pilot in Malaysia

WI.Plat Successfully Completes Smart Water Pilot in Malaysia—Paving the Way for Expansion with Sarawak Government

 

WI.Plat Co., Ltd. has proudly completed the Intelligent Water Loss Management System Project in Samariang, Kuching, Malaysia, with outstanding success. This pilot, funded by GGGI-BKCF and supported by K-water, showcased WI.Plat’s advanced AI-powered leak detection and pressure monitoring technologies. Through the deployment of 30 IoT devices and our NELOW smart water platform, the project achieved an estimated annual water savings of over 87,000 tons. By training local engineers, conducting thorough system assessments, and executing real-time leak detection and repair, WI.Plat demonstrated the transformative impact of smart water technologies in Southeast Asia.

Smart Technologies Meet Real-World Impact in Sarawak

WI.Plat’s innovative approach—combining AI, IoT, and cloud-based water management—proved highly effective in reducing Non-Revenue Water (NRW) and strengthening operational efficiency. The project in Samariang not only validated the technological feasibility but also enhanced the capabilities of local utility staff through targeted capacity building. These results have garnered strong interest from the Sarawak government, which now plans to scale this success into a broader, performance-based NRW reduction program in collaboration with WI.Plat.

Next Phase: Performance-Based NRW Reduction Project Across Sarawak

Building on the pilot’s success, WI.Plat is preparing to launch a large-scale NRW reduction initiative covering up to 50,000 households in Sarawak. This upcoming three-year project will follow a performance-based model, linking project compensation directly to measurable reductions in water loss. With proven experience, cutting-edge solutions, and trusted partnerships in place, WI.Plat is poised to lead Sarawak into a new era of intelligent water management—delivering sustainable, measurable outcomes that benefit both people and the environment.

Venue: World Trade Center, Dubai

 

WI.Plat successfully participated in the WETEX 2024 exhibition in Dubai, presenting our advanced water leakage management technologies. The event attracted numerous representatives from private companies and local water authorities across the Middle East, with particular interest in integrating effective leakage solutions within the region.

WETEX is the largest sustainability and clean energy exhibition in the region. The event provided an excellent platform for showcasing cutting-edge technologies and discussing trends in water, energy, and environmental sustainability.

Water leakage is a significant challenge in the Middle East, affecting not only water distribution networks but also transmission pipelines, irrigation systems, and building infrastructures. Visitors to the WI.Plat booth recognized the urgent need for efficient solutions and praised the capabilities of our NELOW system. Attendees were especially impressed by our correlation method, which accurately pinpoints leak locations by comparing sound data.

WI.Plat’s solutions stood out for their convenience and lightweight design, with our data visualization features receiving positive feedback for their user-friendly interface. Through this exhibition, we gained valuable insights into the growing demand for comprehensive water leakage solutions, reinforcing our commitment to offering the best technologies for sustainable water management.

As we continue to expand our presence in the Middle East, WI.Plat remains dedicated to addressing the region’s pressing water management challenges with innovative, high-performance solutions.
