Metering & Billing

Our solutions for metering & billing

In order to bill customers accurately, collect system data, and incentivize water conservation, public water utilities use metering systems to measure the volume of water used. By using water meters at the water source or throughout a distribution network, the utility can also identify system inefficiencies, detect water leaks and revenue loss, and plan capital improvements based on the information collected.

Description of what will be in the list below:

  • Meter reading (Automation, Route Optimization)
  • Identification of defective meters requiring replacement.
  • Bill design services, quality control and high bill investigation
  • Comprehensive billing outsourcing & customer service.
  • We use management tools that include client-specific, monthly billing driven by each customer's rate and service type, while providing flexibility through multiple payment options.

As operations partner to nearly 500+ communities and 300 municipal water and wastewater facilities across North America, Veolia understands the interlinked activities required to successfully streamline metering and billing operations.
