Since 2012, Muscovites have had an opportunity to transmit water and electricity meter readings online through service on the Moscow Mayor web-site Mos.ru, which monthly turn over is 1 million people. In 2021, the service will be significantly modified.
Product-leads and programmers have come up with new functionalities of the service that allow citizens to reduce water consumption and their personal expenses on utility bills. Muscovites now have a unique opportunity to assess their water consumption and compare it to the average of more than 5 million households in Moscow via easy access to analytical visualization of the Water Consumption Data. If the rate of consumption is decreasing, service will notify a citizen with a positive sticker. For those who are looking for specific tips, how to reduce water consumption, there will be a special section on the webpage. New PR campaign based on AR technologies has been launched to promote new functions and raise awareness. The idea is to show the long path that water has to make to enter homes of Muscovites. From the drop of the rain to the tap in the south of Moscow, you may explore the virtual water Moscow map.

The functions for saving water can be launched in other municipal and federal services for sending readings of any meters (water, electricity, heating, etc.), both in the regions of Russia and other countries of the world.

Users receive analytics on their own water consumption and tips on saving water. Due to this, users of the service receive tools to reduce the consumption of water. Saving water reduces the burden on the ecosystem.

The project contributes to the creation of responsible resource consumption culture in the city by using IT technologies.
