KAI Water & Energy · your remote co-workerWater and energy, foreseen.

The modelling team you don't have to fly in. We build live models of your aquifers, rivers, industrial park, reservoir or deep subsurface from your own data, and deliver them to your workspace wherever you are, in a browser, with us on call.

Water
  • Site boreholes and map aquifers in 3D
  • Run an industrial park's water and compliance
  • Forecast floods, and set parametric triggers insurers can price
Energy
  • Plan hydropower releases from the inflow forecast
  • Carry rock properties from the core plug to the reservoir
  • Model geothermal, CO₂ and hydrogen storage sites

The platform

One platform for water and energy

Rivers, aquifers and rocks feed both. KAI models them with one engine, on one account, so a forecast built for a flood warning can also plan a hydropower release.

How we work

Your remote co-worker in water, geoenergy and anticipatory action

We bring the solution to your workspace, however many miles away you are. No consultants to fly in, no software to install: your team keeps working the way it does, and the models come to you.

  1. Share what you have

    Borehole records, well logs, meter exports, lab results, river levels or a link to your system. A private workspace is set up on day one.

  2. We build the model

    Process-based models of groundwater, rivers, sewers, reservoirs or the deep subsurface, checked against your measurements, with the uncertainty stated.

  3. It arrives in your workspace

    A live model in the browser, alerts by email and phone, a short report and files for your GIS or your own software. One KAI login.

  4. We stay on call

    We review the results with you online, update the model as new data arrive, and answer within two working days.

Your own KAI workspace

Create an account, customise the product to your operation and own it for daily work. KAI runs everything behind it: storage and database, the knowledge base, and the software that schedules and runs your model jobs. The front end is yours from day one.

One account for every KAI product. Free to start.
  • Your account, your product

    Open a free account, pick the product and switch it on. Your sites, users, thresholds and layers are set up for you, and the front end is ready the same day.

  • Customised, then yours to run

    We shape the product to your operation: the points you watch, the reports you file, the alerts your team needs. Your team runs it every day; your data stays yours and exports at any time.

  • Storage and database, handled

    Time series, maps, logs, models and files kept in one managed database, backed up, secured per user and shared only as you decide.

  • A knowledge base that grows

    Your reports, methods, data sources and model documentation in one searchable place, so a new engineer finds why a number is what it is.

  • Workflows that run themselves

    Model runs, data pulls, quality checks and alerts are scheduled and queued for you, every day, with a log of each run.

  • A team on call

    We keep the models calibrated, add data as it arrives and answer within two working days. You get a modelling team without hiring one.

Solutions

From the rain cloud to the reservoir

Each solution ends in something you can act on: a depth, a forecast, an alert, a release plan or a model.

Hydropower reservoir management

Every hydropower reservoir walks a line between spilling water it could have turned into power and running too low to meet demand. KAI-Hydropower forecasts the inflow, projects the level and the energy for each release plan, and warns days before either happens.

  • Daily inflow forecasts from calibrated basin models
  • Level and energy projected for each release plan you test
  • Spill and low-level warnings days ahead
  • One forecast for every plant on a cascade
Reservoir level forecast for two release plans Illustration. The observed level rises towards today. With the current release the forecast crosses the full supply level in about 19 days, so the reservoir would spill. With a 20 percent higher release it stays below.

GroundWater Analyst · central cattle corridor
The full GroundWater Analyst model of the cattle corridor
Case study

Groundwater beneath Nakasongola and Luwero

GroundWater Analyst at work in Uganda's cattle corridor: a 3D aquifer model with 292 boreholes. It shows water about 27 m down and bedrock about 42 m, so most boreholes draw from a thin saturated band. The same model now covers the south-west cattle corridor and the Aswa catchment, read from 387 drilling logs.

Now published: an open book chapter on groundwater across the whole cattle corridor, from 7,306 boreholes and 18 monitoring stations, with drought triggers. Read it on Zenodo ↗

If you drill here, what are the odds of enough water?

The KAI Heterogeneity Lab reads every driller's log around a site and answers the questions a drilling budget depends on. Try it on 4,288 public well records; then run it on your own boreholes.
