<p>Telefónica Tech, the digital unit of Telefónica SA, has been selected by the municipal company Aguas de Cádiz to upgrade more than 4,000 water meters to smart meters. The deployment is part of the WATERCOG-PC project, which aims to digitally transform the urban water cycle and is managed by the Ministry for Ecological Transition and Demographic Challenge (PERTE) with funding from NextGeneration EU. The project will initially involve the replacement of meters in a specific neighbourhood, homeowners’ associations, and certain public services, including those used for watering parks and gardens. The upgraded meters will utilize NB-IoT technology to provide remote, automatic consumption data and support more efficient and sustainable water resource management. After the pilot phase, the programme is expected to expand to cover all meters in the city.
