Why a water starter kit?One year ago, Schneider Electric has launched the solution

transormation journey. During those last 12 months, we have denedstandard architectures, developed some solutions, and issued some

documentation and training support. Today, we are able to share those

supports, experiences and best practices.

Our objective is to accelerate the deployment phase with the countries

to be more successul and visible on the market. This kit would represent

the most ecient leverage to start with.

Water & Wastewater economy is a constant growth segment.

Despite the economical crisis, in most o the countries, water economy is

active or projects, services, and solutions.

I believe this is an opportunity that countries couldnt miss today.

How to use it?Our objective is to assist you in the deployment o your water business plan

in a country.

Countries need to address dierent topics: to identiy customer

(who, where, how, pain points), to align its sales ront oce, to organize

the back oce (local or regional), to communicate (to increase visibility andrecognition), and to dedicate appropriate resources.

According to those dierent steps, this kit is proposing guidelines to speed

up the process denition and implementation in order to perorm quickly.

Countries have to appropriate this kit. I necessary, this could be adapted

to align with the country even organization constraints.

What are the main recommendations?My rst recommendation is to use this process and do not hesitate to ask

questions.

Together, we will activate the orum located on the Water section o

the Solution ToolBox which is our community place. This tool and

community will speed up our time to market and will optimize our resources

consumption.

Our water network should be quicker and better organized than our

competitors.

We have the tools, lets make business.

> Fundamentals o the Water business

> Our 1st priority:the public/municipal water market

Today, on earth,

1 in 5 inhabitants has no access to sae

drinking water,

1 in 3 inhabitants lacks access to sanitation

acilities.

As Water is life, this is not

acceptable!

Countries, within UNO, have decided to

ace their responsibilities and to invest

to challenge these ratios through their

development program.

Every year, 100 BE are invested to build, to

improve the acilities and inrastructures in

order to provide, or long time, drinking waterand sanitation to people.

Water is economy!

By the same time, growing urbanization,

economical development and environmental

constraints are increasing water needs

through new and scalable production,

transportation and treatment inrastructures.

Quantity and quality o water are the basics

o the economy.

By 30%, at least, Energy cost is impacting

the water bill.

Water price is a sensitive and political issue

or governments, municipalities, operators,

consumers.

Water is energy!

Today, without energy, water is not available

at the tap and treatment is not possible.

Management o this energy is the key

leverage or perormance and protability o

the water business.

According to the long lie cycle o the

acilities, choices rom today will have a long

term impact.

Schneider Electric is the specialist ofenergy management and is delivering its

expertise every day, everywhere in the

world to the actors of the supply chain.

Schneider Electric, with its solutions,

could save up to 30% of energy

consumption.

Water solutions by Schneider Electric

make the most of your energy and make

the most of your water.

We focus on our customers

applications:

Pumping application

@ Pumping stations : liting station, boosting

station, catchment station.

Treatment application

@ Drinking water treatment plants

(mechanical, physical, chemical, biological

processes).

@ Waste water treatment plants (sludge

treatment, air treatment, blowers).

@ Desalination process (Reverse Osmosis,

Thermal).

Management of water networks

@ Drinking water: quality, leakage, availability.

@ Wastewater: collection, corrosion, saety,

environment care.

@ Remote management and telemetry.

@ Pipes and inrastructures management.

@ Consumer interace: metering, invoicing,

customer relationship management.

We identify our customers painpoints & challenges

@ Optimisation o their design and operating

costs.

30% saving in energy.

@ High availability water treatment and high

required water quality.

@ Distribution o water 24/7.

@ Management o a network o pumping

stations.

@ Adaptation o the process to regulation

changes.

@ Services to operation, inrastructures,
