Intelligent Rain Retention and Reuse (IR3)

Intelligent Rain Retention & Reuse (IR3) Outcomes

Net Zero Stormwater

Distributed AI IoT and climate prediction IR3 system releases water controlling 90% of roof runoff.

Data & Decision Making

IR3 Systems Analytics equips insurers and municipal governments with micro-climate data.

IR3 Operation & Maintenance

RainGrid provides full-service operation and maintenance of IR3 systems for utilities and property managers.

Ecosystem Credits

Installation cost is virtually offset with environmental credits generated for ecosystem restoration, scope 2GHG, and stormwater retention.

IR3 Provides Climate Resilience

Weather Forecast


  • Predicts precipitation against capacity


  • Boosts flood or drought resilience


  • Automatically empties before rainfall


Maximum Rain Retention


  • AI-optimized storage capacity


  • Offset municipal water demand


  • Reduce flood risk liability


  • Delay pipe and road repairs


Micro-Climate Data


  • Monitor property-level rain data online


  • Real-time early-warning


  • Smart records and monitoring


  • Flood risk mapping and forecasts

Program Design

Intelligent Rain Retention and Reuse (IR3) Systems are community-based, public-private partnership (CBP3) infrastructure installed and operated by RainGrid on behalf of the utility. We fill the operations capacity gap for utilities.

By extending city climate resilience infrastructure capacity to the 45-57% of gross impermeable area made up of residential/small commercial private properties, we close the climate risk gap too.

Designed to meet standard or LTCP stormwater permit requirements, climate resilience pre-disaster, post-disaster recovery or OneWater Circular Economy strategies.

Implementation

Intelligent Rain Retention and Reuse (IR3) Systems offer utilities a tangible benefit based on measurably reduced permeability coefficient or equivalent runoff units (ERUs) on a community basis.

Whether installed on a utility basis or as a rebate mechanism, IR3 Systems transforms participants from ratepayers to partners.

Maintenance

Intelligent Rain Retention and Reuse (IR3) is operated and maintained through a CBP3 Model. This means that your IR3 Systems will be installed on your property and maintained by us! We will do the work for you!

Analytics

  • Real-time individual property-based data monitoring and visualization
    • Sensors monitor cisterns or roofs in six-minute intervals and correlate storage capacity to the five-day precipitation forecast data for each property.
  • 5-day micro-climate predictive weather forecast
  • Network-wide utility management software, diagnostics and analytics of property-based and community-wide operations, sewershed mapping, reports, filters and system diagnostics.
  • Mobile or Desktop Web-based Access for ease of use
    • Cloud-based data visualization and analytics aggregate property and grid-scale operational management data on daily, monthly and annual retention, overflow and reuse volumes as well as micro-climate data.
  • GDPR Compliant
