Report: Forecasted spending on smart water technology tops $20 billion over next decade

The U.S. municipal water sector, which has traditionally been slow to adopt new technologies, sits at the cusp of change with more than $20 billion of forecasted spending on software, data and analytics solutions over the next decade. As a result, more than 40 companies are positioning to deploy state-of-the-art solutions to enable more advanced levels of system intelligence, real-time network visibility, energy efficiency, and customer management, according to a new report from Bluefield Research, U.S. Smart Water: Defining the Opportunity, Competitive Landscape, and Market Outlook.
