Digital Twin Systems
A New Dimension of Control, Precision, and Predictive Infrastructure
At WAGAS, our cities, energy grids, and industrial parks are not just built, they are modeled, simulated, and optimized in real time. Powered by Digital Twin technology, we create virtual replicas of physical environments that empower governments, engineers, and operators to manage complexity with clarity.
This approach enables data-driven decision making from design to execution, turning infrastructure into living systems that adapt, respond, and evolve.
''If you can simulate it, you can control it. If you can control it, you can improve it.''
What is a Digital Twin?
A Digital Twin is a real-time, 1:1 virtual model of a physical asset—be it a building, power plant, logistics network, or an entire city. These dynamic models integrate data from sensors, software, and operations to:
- Visualize infrastructure in 3D
- Simulate future scenarios (stress tests, usage, risk)
- Identify inefficiencies or maintenance needs
- Optimize cost, speed, and sustainability
Smart Cities, Smarter Management
WAGAS deploys Digital Twin Systems to operate and monitor:
- Utility networks: water, electricity, and waste systems
- Mobility & transport: routing, congestion, EV grid loading
- Construction workflows: site activity, safety, and material flow
- Health infrastructure: patient flow, clinic operations, emergency scenarios
- Urban planning: population simulations, zoning, green space optimization
Example: In Côte d’Ivoire, the Health Smart City integrates a Digital Twin of hospital services, patient movement, pharmacy stock, and ambulance dispatch.
Industrial & Energy Optimization
Within industrial parks and power grids, WAGAS uses digital twins to:
- Model energy flows, grid load behavior, and backup deployment
- Track machine performance and predict failures
- Optimize supply chain logistics across agro-processing and manufacturing
- Simulate construction feasibility and project staging before breaking ground
Example: In Guinea, the biomass power system connected to a mining zone is managed via a predictive twin, helping anticipate seasonal shifts in feedstock availability and optimizing turbine performance.
Lifecycle Integration Across Infrastructure
From design to daily operations, our Digital Twin stack supports:
1. Factory and City Design
- Virtual prototyping, space optimization, resource modeling
2. Construction and Assembly
- Material delivery tracking, on-site simulation, risk forecasting
3. Operations and Maintenance
- Real-time monitoring, performance alerts, predictive maintenance
4. Continuous Improvement
- Simulation of upgrades, scenario testing (e.g., disaster resilience)
As shown on page 44 of the Investor Report, this system supports:
- Process simulation & validation
- Additive manufacturing planning
- Production performance analysis
- Supplier chain and inventory mapping
- Service lifecycle management
Integrated with NOVASCEND
Our Digital Twin technology is fully embedded within the NOVASCEND platform:
- Dashboards for ministries and mayors
- Alerting systems for critical services
- AI-driven insights for predictive planning
- APIs for integration with BIM, SCADA, GIS, and ERP systems

A Strategic Digital Asset for Sovereign Development
- Governments can use twins to test policy choices without real-world disruption.
- Developers reduce construction delays by rehearsing logistics.
- Utility managers reduce energy waste and outages through simulation.
- Urban planners improve quality of life and sustainability metrics.
