Abstract Smart metering technology for residential buildings is being trialed and rolled out by water utilities to assist with urban water management. The technology can provide near real time monitoring of where water is used in the home, disaggregated by end-use (shower, toilet, clothes washing, garden irrigation and so on). This paper explores questions regarding the degree of information detail required to assist utilities in targeting demand management programs and informing customers of their usage patterns, whilst ensuring privacy concerns of residents are upheld.
