Publisher: NALAS
Volume: 8 pages, pdf
Description:
Public utility assets in South-Eastern European(SEE) countries are managed by Public Utilities (PU) owned by local government/ Municipalities. Management of all aspects of providing water supply and wastewater services is deeply influenced by the Municipal authorities. Water Utilities are experiencing greater than ever pressure to improve their overall efficiency and cost-effectiveness. The industry is being regulated at an increasing tempo, while at the same time, funding is becoming more difficult to access. Water Utilities are left with little choice – as a minimum they will have to improve the quality and reliability of the water they supply; more likely they will be required to become less dependent on external funding and eventually self-sufficient and economically viable.
