UK Water Resilience Concerns Highlighted by Schneider Electric Research

Ageing infrastructure and cyber threats pose significant risks to UK water supply

Schneider Electric's research highlights the need for improved water resilience in the UK, citing ageing infrastructure and cyber threats as key concerns. The study found that 71% of water utilities in the UK are concerned about the impact of cyber attacks on their operations. Digital twin technology could help mitigate these risks by simulating water treatment processes and identifying potential vulnerabilities. This would enable water utilities to test and improve their resilience in a controlled environment.
