Water Meter
A water meter measures the volume of water consumed by a building or site, typically in cubic metres or litres, used for billing and consumption monitoring.
Definition
A water meter records water consumption, typically in cubic metres or litres. While not an energy source itself, water metering is often included in broader utility management and sustainability reporting, since water use and associated treatment carry their own environmental impact and cost.
Why It Matters
Water is increasingly included in sustainability reporting frameworks alongside energy and emissions, and unnoticed leaks or waste can represent significant avoidable cost.
