What Vela Does

See Everything. Lose Nothing.

Water losses and revenue leakage are no longer exceptions. They are everyday operating conditions. Vela gives utilities and municipalities a live view of consumption, losses and billing across the network. Combined with our energy resilience work, including microgrids, battery storage, solar PV and pump scheduling, Vela helps a utility anticipate disruption instead of absorbing it.
