Smart waste management for 30 000 inhabitants in Oulu

The region of Oulu in Northern Finland has over 2000 installed fill level sensors that enable smart waste management. The service is provided by a local waste hauler, Haurun Jäteauto using Wastebook’s waste data. Wastebook has built its waste data system on iProtoXi’s Jaete fill level sensors and cloud technology. The sensor data powers Hauru’s route optimization system so waste containers and septic tanks are emptied on an optimized schedule. https://www.wastebook.fi/en/testimonial/

Challenge or problem: 90 % of all waste is collected either too early or too late. To avoid over fillings and costs related to littering, the average fill level of a container upon collection is only around 42 %. Collecting air instead of waste causes expenses and co2 emissions and takes resources making waste management inefficient.
Solution: Jaete fill level sensors are installed in over 2000 waste containers and septic tanks. The routes and collection schedules are dynamic and based on containers’ fill level data. The waste data is integrated into the waste hauler company’s route optimization system through a REST API.
Result: In just two years Hauru has been able to streamline its operations and grow its business by 19 %, to increase its clients by 30 % without adding resources or driving. Residential areas have less driving, and customers enjoy more efficient waste service.
