FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
How do we do it?
We connect the client’s SCADA and data base to our platform that uses machine learning, weather data, energy price variations, self-generation energy and the hydraulic model and send the optimized operations back to the client’s SCADA system.
What are the advantages of SCUBIC?
- Reduced operational costs (energy, water) up to 21%;
- Reduced maintenance (fewer pump starts);
- Increased network security;
- Increased human resources productivity;
- Decreased carbon emissions.
Why are we different?
Our features are distinct:
- Holistic network optimization;
- Energy mix optimization;
- Real-Time autonomous supervision;
- Data & manufacturer agnostic
And the benefits we bring to your operations are garanteed:
- Optimization of all network assets (not just the pumps);
- Real OPEX cost reductions up to 21%;
- Adaptation to change and rise of labour productivity;
- No impacto on existing supplier contracts.

How does SCUBIC operate?
1º STEP: Operational and Energy Audit
- Survey of network characteristics (network map, manometric heights, among other data);
- Survey of energy consuming equipment / systems (pumping stations, tanks, valves);
- Characterization of the operation and analysis of global consumption and per energy tariffs / equipment / system consumption;
- Report with possible improvements in the system;
- Simulation of operating costs with SCUBIC implementation.
2º STEP: Platform Implementation in Manual Mode
- Implementation of the web platform in manual mode;
- Training of operators and managers.
3º STEP: Platform Implementation in Automatic Mode
- Implementation of automatic mode (if SCADA systems allow it).
4º STEP: Monitoring and Reporting of Performance
- Daily follow-up during the first 6 months of operation;
- Preparation of monthly reports on network performance compared to the corresponding period of the previous year.
How does SCUBIC keep data safe?
We strive to be on the foremost when it comes to security standards. We implement the highest security standards with:
- Secure Authentications
- Encrypted Communications
- Monitoring and Updating
- Strict firewalls are installed on all devices and servers
- Regular security audits
- Automatic Security Updates
- Data Protection
