Efficient water distribution solutions, key to safeguarding Europe's water

Water loss in distribution networks often reaches high percentages – up to 50% in certain areas of Europe – of the volume introduced. It is therefore key that reducing water leakages and ensuring the reliability of water distribution systems is addressed in upcoming EU policy initiatives.

Ahead of the Danish Presidency of the European Union and the publication of the European Commission\'s Blueprint for Safeguarding Europe\'s Water, this workshop will be a unique opportunity for you to meet and interact with our panel members and with experts from the EU institutions, the industry, European cities and NGOs to design together the best solutions that will lead to an efficient management of Europe\'s water and contribute to the safeguard of this unique natural resource.Infos
