Every day, millions of gallons of safe, clean water are consumed in the UK, relying on a "hidden" complex network infrastructure. In addition, this infrastructure also plays a critical role in improving the quality of the UK's river water through wastewater treatment. As small-scale renewable energy generation and storage system including hybrid solar photovoltaics, electric vehicles, battery and water storage have grown in popularity, there is now an opportunity to incorporate these low-carbon technologies into a smart water network to achieve significant carbon emissions savings associated with network operation. To improve operational performance, the interaction with the national electricity grid and advanced remote monitoring techniques using the wireless internet-of-things platform can be examined. New benefits, such as improved power quality, better demand management, and increased resilience, will also be produced. The overall goal of this project therefore is to design, create and validate an engineering framework that satisfies these aims and can be implemented economically.

在英国，每天都有数百万加仑的安全、清洁的水被消耗，这依赖于一个“隐藏的”复杂的网络基础设施。此外，这一基础设施在通过废水处理改善英国河水质量方面也发挥了关键作用。随着包括混合太阳能光伏、电动汽车、电池和蓄水在内的小规模可再生能源发电和储存系统越来越受欢迎，现在有机会将这些低碳技术整合到智能供水网络中，以实现与网络运营相关的显著碳排放节约。为了提高运营绩效，可以检查与国家电网的互动情况，以及使用无线物联网平台的先进远程监控技术。还将产生新的好处，如改善电力质量、更好的需求管理和更强的弹性。因此，该项目的总体目标是设计、创建和验证一个能够满足这些目标并能够经济地实施的工程框架。
