The city of Lutsk is currently one of the leaders in implementing Internet of Things (IoT) technologies in Ukraine, and this is thanks to the comprehensive coverage of the LoRaWAN network. This wireless communication technology opens up unlimited possibilities for the development of a smart city, where every aspect of life can be improved through the automation of various urban life aspects.

The successful implementation of LoRaWAN in Lutsk is inspiring other cities in Ukraine to join this technological movement. We are confident that the use of LoRaWAN in water management is just the beginning of creating modern, efficient, and stable water supply systems for every city.

Recently, we organized a meeting of our partners from Cherkasy and Kremenchuk in Lutsk, where we exchanged experiences and actively sought new solutions. Within the framework of our activities, we collaborate with water sector specialists, conduct research, aiming to promote innovative approaches and facilitate their implementation nationwide, thus contributing to improving the quality of water services for the population.

The meeting with partners has been an important step towards deepening cooperation and exchanging innovative ideas for further development in the water supply sector and the use of IoT technologies in this process.

With great respect and gratitude, we would like to inform you about our cooperation with Vinnytsiaoblvodokanal, thanks to which Vinnytsia residents can now purchase meters through the water utility on favourable terms, namely     - For household consumers - UAH 800, with the possibility of instalments up to 6 months;      - For legal entities - UAH 1850 (100% payment).
This choice demonstrates the trust in the quality and reliability of our equipment. Our meters meet the highest quality and safety standards, which guarantees a stable and reliable water supply.
We are confident that this cooperation will contribute to increased comfort for all residents of the city, and together with Vinnytsiaoblvodokanal we are committed to continue to provide the highest quality of service to all our customers.

The main goal of this meeting is to ensure reliable payment for water by consumers in all cities of Ukraine, which will be reflected in timely and uninterrupted collection of payments. This opens up the opportunity for water utilities to improve the quality of services and start a phased modernisation of water supply networks.
During the meeting, we, as the official and exclusive distributor of Apator Powogaz products in Ukraine, presented innovative Smart meters with the following features:
- Automatic data collection and transmission system, which eliminates the possibility of errors or false information about consumed resources.
- Resistance to strong magnetic fields, which guarantees reliability in combating fraud.
- Highly accurate measurement, the system responds even to minimal water flow, ensuring accurate measurements.
