BRIEF OVERVIEW
BRIEF OVERVIEW
Tubas Joint Services Council (JSC) is on the track for achieving huge water savings, currently saving 100 cubic meter per day in Ras Al-Fard'a. Through active leak detection and data interpretation, the service council utilized data collected through Flowless platform, ultimately cutting down supply quantities to the half.
Flowless deployed the real-time data collection system in Tubas 1.5 years ago, and our team continues to follow-up with the utility, provided the needed support to maintain the system and materialize the impact.

THE CHALLENGE
THE CHALLENGE
Tubas is a Palestinian city to the northeast of the West Bank. It is home to over 65,000 people. Positioned within the Jordan valley, Tubas is famous for its wide fertile plains and moderately-hot climate, making it an attractive region for agriculture. Locals work mostly in agriculture, growing crops, fruits, and vegetables that covers a large portion of the local demand in Palestine.
Tubas Joint Water and Sanitary Services Council (JSC) is responsible for managing municipal water supply of fresh water for 7 localities in Tubas, mostly rural localities. The rural setting adds more complicities and pressure on water supply management, which adds to the natural challenges of water scarcity in the region. The demand is continuously grow-ing, and the available resources are finite.

THE SOLUTION
THE SOLUTION
Flowless team worked with Tubas JSC on deploying Flowless smart system to monitor water supply in selected areas in Tubas. Flowless interventions included network assessment, data transmitters installation, and providing Flowless web platform for the JSC to monitor water flow and pressure in real-time. The aim was to:
Monitor water supply for active leak detection
and utimately enhance water supply efficiency. and operations feasibility
Flowless system components included:
Flowless Smart Units: which are data transmitters connected to meters and sensors to collect real-time data and transfer it to the cloud-based. database.
Flowless Web App: a software dedicated for water networks management through real-time tracking and reporting.

KEY TAKEAWAYS
Stakeholders Engagement
Coordination between all stakeholders in the water sector is essential. While the private sector will continue to introduce technology innovations, close coordination and strategic partnerships with the public sector is key to materializing the envisioned impact.
Innovative Financing
Blended financing approaches proved to be effective in mitigating financing challenges in Palestine. In this approach, both the water service provider & the technology provider contribute to covering implementation costs, ensuring better outcomes.
Adaptive Solutions
Local technological solutions are often over-looked. It is evident that such solutions are more adaptive to the local context and are more effective in tackling local challenges.
