Safeguarding our cities' water

Meeting the demands of urbanization

Intelligent solutions are available to help us supply and distribute water, as well as treat wastewater. This can ensure that people have continuous access to clean water while relieving stress on the environment.

By implementing them, we will be better prepared for the fact that by 2050 an additional 2.5 billion people are expected to live in cities*.

Relieving increasing water stress

Intelligent solutions enable us to provide the more than 2 billion people who live under extreme water stress* (one fourth of the world’s population) with better access to freshwater sources.

Minimizing water losses

Intelligent solutions are able to maximize pumped water efficiency and mitigate water loss, helping us save more water than ever before. Currently, an average of 30% of all pumped water never reaches the tap, and in some cities, this can reach as high as 60%.*
This can be changed.
