NEC Birmingham 20-21 May 2025 | Stand A47
Edinburgh, {13 May 2025}: CSignum is presenting key wireless solutions at Utility Week Live 2025, designed to enable utilities to monitor water quality and extend “smart” operations to underwater and underground locations. CSignum is the global leader in wireless underwater and underground connectivity with its patented electromagnetic field signalling (EMFS) technology.
Embracing smart operations is critical as utilities work towards achieving net zero, improving network efficiency, addressing environmental concerns and pollution, increasing operational resilience to potential threats, and ensuring continuity of service to customers.
“Effective communications in the field, often in inhospitable underwater and underground locations, are essential if utilities are to maximise the potential of digital network solutions,” said Jonathan Reeves, CEO of CSignum.
“Extending the internet of things to all parts of a utility’s operations is an ambition that needs effective data transmission and connectivity across all assets and all environments – including those that are submerged.
“Our solutions help utilities to quickly harvest data from every part of their operations, in rivers, oceans and even in the ‘splash’ zone, where tides pose an additional challenge to data capture, as well as through ice. No other solutions can deliver this.
“Utilities looking to maximise their existing assets in response to growing customer, regulatory and network demands need timely, relevant, up to the minute data. This is where CSignum solutions can help to connect a vital missing link in their operations and even across their supply chain.”
CSignum’s EM-2 solutions represent a breakthrough in wireless communication technology. These solutions are capable of reliably transmitting data via patented electromagnetic field signalling (EMFS) through environments including water, ice, soil, rock and concrete to networks above the surface.
Key applications for EM-2 systems include water quality and environmental monitoring, wireless under-ship monitoring, and security applications for critical underwater infrastructure such as offshore wind turbines and oil and gas platforms.
The company also offers CSignum Cloud, providing data services to complement its wireless systems. The company’s dashboard and analytics are successfully deployed on several river water quality monitoring projects.
A key application in the utilities sector is surface water quality monitoring, which has become a pressing issue for utilities due to increasing pollution levels in rivers, lakes, and coastal areas. Effective monitoring is the first step in implementing quantifiable improvement programs aimed at combating pollution.
“Continuous data collection is essential for understanding pollution patterns, implementing mitigation strategies, and ensuring compliance with environmental regulations,” Jonathan Reeves continued.
“The growing levels of legislation and audit required by UK authorities to ensure water quality is just one example of the growing pressure on utilities to monitor the environmental impact of their operations and minimise damage.”
