• 63% of PRASA’s production is unaccounted relative to an average of 10% in US.

• Outdated metering technology affects PRASA:

• Water monitoring system

• High level non-revenue water

• Commercial inefficiencies

• Recovering these commercial losses represents the largest single opportunity for PRASA‘s improvement.
