The second stage of the implementation of the Digital Vodokanal system has been completed in the Belgorod region

2023: Completion of the second stage of the creation of "Digital Vodokanal"

JSC RuSat Infrastructure Solutions"" (RIR, part of the State Corporation Rosatom""), Ministry of Digital Development of the Belgorod Region and the State Unitary Enterprise "" Beloblvodokanal completed the second stage of the Digital Water Utility project. This was reported to the RIR on January 15, 2024.

The project is designed to minimize losses in networks, reduce the number of emergencies and, in general, improve the efficiency and quality of water supply. The 2023 work pool includes the supply of both equipment that allows you to collect information in a single dispatch center for analysis and operational response, and specialized software. In 2024, it is planned to introduce a dispatching system at more than 200 water supply facilities.

As part of the second stage of the project, design estimates were developed for the implementation of the Digital Vodokanal RIR automated system for field water supply facilities in Belgorod and Belgorod region, including 23 water supply and booster pumping stations, 11 water treatment stations, 17 dictating points and 184 water wells, as well as the upper level project of the system being implemented. Also, equipment for collecting and transferring key technological parameters for 130 water supply facilities was purchased and assembled, server and communication equipment for building an IT infrastructure for deploying information systems was purchased and installed.

During the implementation of the first stage of the project, a joint team of experts from the RIR and the water utility deployed three system modules: "Applications," "Bypass Controller," "Central Panel." As a result of the implementation, employees are spared from maintaining paper documentation (formation of applications, recording of the results of control measures). As of January 2024, more than 12.7 thousand applications of citizens, more than 15.9 thousand applications for the work of brigades were introduced into the Application module of the system.

In 2024, it is planned to implement the third and fourth stages of the project: the supply of equipment for field facilities, installation and commissioning of the dispatching system, the introduction of a unified dispatching system based on the Infrastructure IoT Platform software and intelligent modules of the Digital Water Utility IC developed by RIR. For residents, an online service for technological connection to centralized water supply and sanitation systems will also appear, automating and accelerating the process of submitting applications for connection by individuals or legal entities. All received and systematized technological information on the functioning of water supply facilities will be transferred online to the existing hydraulic modeling system of the State Unitary Enterprise Beloblvodokanal, which will significantly increase its accuracy.

Digital Vodokanal and Digital Heat Supply are RIR's own solutions aimed at automating the main business models of the enterprise, including water supply, sanitation, heat supply, electricity and. By gas January 15, 2024, 30 implementations were completed in more than 10 - cities of Russia in, Omsk region(), Glazov on the Udmurt Republic territory, and Voronezh Lipetsk Kurchatov (), etc. Kursk region Solutions have a certificate of effectiveness, it Ministry of Construction of the Russian Federation is awarded to digital products that are used or can be applied as part of the implementation of the departmental project of the Ministry for constructions RUSSIAN FEDERATION the Digitalization of Urban Economy "."Smart city

2021: Implementation of the Digital Vodokanal system in the Belgorod Region

RuSat Infrastructure Solutions JSC (RIR, part of Rosatom State Corporation), the Digital Development Department of the Belgorod Region and the Beloblvodokanal State Unitary Enterprise have completed the first stage of the Digital Vodokanal project. As a result, three system modules are deployed. Digitalization of the enterprise's work should minimize losses in networks, reduce the number of emergencies and, in general, increase the efficiency and quality of water supply. This was announced on December 22, 2021 by the company "RuSat Infrastructure Solutions."

"The introduction of the Digital Vodokanal system is part of the digitalization of urban economy, which was carried out. Beloblvodokanal serves more than a million people in Belgorod and 19 districts of the region. This is over 12,000 km of water supply and sanitation networks, more than a thousand technological facilities in operation. To maintain service quality and optimize management, you need modern digital tools and a single information space, "

During the implementation of the project, a joint team of experts from RIR and Vodokanal conducted a preliminary survey and selected the most popular modules: "Applications," "Bypass Controller," "Central Panel." These are fast payback solutions that do not require the cost of field dispatching equipment. The licenses for them are transferred in full, RIR experts conduct the necessary training and consultations. As a result of the introduction, over 130 employees (emergency repair personnel, sales inspectors) will be spared from maintaining paper documentation (formation of applications, recording of the results of control measures), and all relevant work will be translated into digital form.

"We expect that thanks to our cooperation there will be qualitative changes in the organization of the water utility and dispatching of networks, and all residents of the region will feel positive results,"

The project was implemented within the framework of the concluded license agreement between the Department of Digital Development of the Belgorod Region and Digital Platforms and Smart City Solutions JSC, which is part of the RIR control loop. The development of Digital Vodokanal systems took place with grant support from the Russian Information Technology Development Fund (RFRIT).

"The information systems being implemented are designed not only to optimize the costs of our enterprise, but also, first of all, will allow us to completely differently customize the work with appeals that all our consumers can feel,"
