A Danish-Italian dialogue on water loss

Last June, the Embassy organised a workshop on the important subject of water loss. It turned out to be a great conversation between Italy and Denmark where we touched upon regulatory, economic and technological aspects of one of the biggest challenges for the Italian utilities as of today.

Both Danish and Italian authorities shared their experiences. Among the participants were: The Italian Ministry of Infrastructure and Sustainable Mobility (MIMS), ARERA - Autorità di Regolazione per Energia Reti e Ambiente, ANEA, Danish Ministry of Environment Danish Competition and Consumer Authority and DANVA.

A lot was also shared from the utilities side by Abbanoa S.p.A., ACEA, Acquedotto Pugliese SpA, Gruppo Hera, Iren Luce Gas e Servizi, and from the technology providers AVK International, Danfoss and GRUNDFOS that work closely with the operators to solve these water challenges.
