Europe has achieved a balance between efficient water management, ecosystem preservation, and universal access to sanitation services. With strong regulatory frameworks and cutting-edge technologies in treatment, reuse, and monitoring, the continent sets global standards. From next-generation desalination plants to intelligent distribution networks, Europe demonstrates that sustainability, efficiency, and resilience in water systems are possible. At the European Infrastructure Institute, we transfer this knowledge to support solutions that ensure quality water and sanitation systems adapted to the challenges of the 21st century.
European benchmarks in inspiring numbers:
- 96% access to safe drinking water.
- 90% treatment of urban wastewater.
- More than 1,000 desalination and water reuse plants.
- 70% of distribution networks with telemetry systems.
- 40% reduction in water losses over the past decade.
