Electricity’s Water Meter
Aquadrio values the water behind every hour of electricity, down to the building that used it.
What Aquadrio Does
Aquadrio monitors the electric grid for water consumption. Our meter collects all of the data an hour of electricity carries with it, calculates the water loss, and translates that loss into dollars for the building that used it. We keep this data in a recomputable, sealed record for every hour that a grid produces.
Each record carries an hour’s energy mixture, the gallons used to produce it, and the value of those gallons in order to provide companies, infrastructure operators, and policymakers with accurate information. Aquadrio’s ledger is the only one of its kind.
Gridwater
We define gridwater as the volume of water consumed during power generation for the electricity a building used.
Making electricity consumes freshwater at the power plant, upstream of every load. Aquadrio meters a building’s gridwater, and with it, all of the data that lives in an hour of electricity.
Every Basin
Water leaves a basin, be it the Great Lakes, the Mississippi, or an aquifer. We trace each gallon to the basin it left and report it as a percent of that basin's prescription.
Every Building
Gridwater follows the electricity to whoever used it. We provide valuation of a building’s share along with the utility’s published rate for reference.
Every Hour
Every megawatt-hour consumes water at the plants that made it. Aquadrio meters each hour to capture its unique properties, and stores the record in a recomputable hash.
