At ZERED, we’re proud to support and represent innovative partners like Purecontrol, whose AI-based solutions are transforming water management across Europe — helping municipalities optimize operations, reduce costs, and accelerate their energy transition.
When energy prices soared by 60% between 2022 and 2023, the City of Janzé (35) sought an innovative solution for its wastewater treatment plant.
Their goal: curb electricity costs and support the energy transition.
Step 1: The municipality deployed the Purecontrol AI platform to regulate aeration in real time — the most energy-intensive process on site.
Step 2: They added Okwind solar trackers to locally generate clean energy.
The challenge? Synchronize solar production peaks with operational demand.
The solution? Purecontrol’s AI dynamically adjusts aeration cycles based on real-time solar forecasts, ensuring maximum self-consumption and optimal performance.
Results:
- –15% electricity costs
- 40% less reliance on the grid
- Maintained water treatment quality
“We can now adjust plant operations to match photovoltaic production. This approach could easily be replicated across many municipalities.”
– Rémi Angebault, Head of Wastewater Service, City of Janzé
