Gas infrastructure plays a crucial yet often invisible role in modern cities. Traditionally, utilities relied on periodic checks to monitor flow and pressure — an approach that limited real-time awareness.
The rise of IoT gas networks changes that paradigm. Using LoRaWAN, NB-IoT, and Cat.1 communication technologies, utilities can now collect continuous data from distributed meters and sensors. This allows for real-time visibility, predictive maintenance, and proactive safety measures.
Key benefits include:
-
Early leak detection to prevent hazards and loss.
-
Accurate consumption data enabling fair billing.
-
Predictive maintenance that reduces downtime and cost.
-
Optimized distribution for better energy efficiency.
Smart gas networks are more than technological upgrades — they represent a shift toward data-driven energy governance. As cities grow, digital transparency will define how safely and efficiently they breathe.
