Safaricom is targeting large water utilities with smart meter solutions to help curb losses for water providers even as it seeks to grow its revenue through the new stream.
The telco last week invited companies involved in the supply and manufacturing of smart meters to tender for their provision as it thirsts for revenue from deals with water utilities. Under the deal, Safaricom said it will deploy the smart meters and its existing technology to large water utilities to enable them track water use, leakages and curb revenue theft.
