Change in the power consumption and capacity of booster
pumping stations in Samara during their reconstruction

Summary

Information on the reconstruction of pumping stations in Samara is presented. The basic methods and means of its phased implementation are described. In order to optimize the operation of the water distribution network and structures, to identify unaccounted-for-losses and water flow rate in the system, to reduce the consumption of electricity by the facilities, a package of measures including the use of IT solutions, software for hydraulic modeling of the water supply system shall be carried out. The values of monthly and annual electricity consumption and water supply for booster pumping stations reconstructed in 2015 and 2018 are given. The decrease in energy consumption for pumping water is determined. The change in water supply by booster pumping stations after reconstruction is estimated. An assumption is made about the reasons for the possible absence of a decrease in water supply during the reconstruction of pumping stations taking into account the pressure stabilization at the outlet.
