Project Overview

The A2A Ciclo Idrico water loss reduction policy, in accordance with the objectives defined by the recent AEEGSI Resolution 917/2017, includes actions that aim to reduce all components (both real and apparent measurement errors) that define the volumes of losses on the aqueduct system. This includes the presence of a remote control room for monitoring the level of water sources and reservoirs, supply sources consisting mainly of wells, mapping leaks from the aqueducts in ord…

The A2A Ciclo Idrico water loss reduction policy, in accordance with the objectives defined by the recent AEEGSI Resolution 917/2017, includes actions that aim to reduce all components (both real and apparent measurement errors) that define the volumes of losses on the aqueduct system. This includes the presence of a remote control room for monitoring the level of water sources and reservoirs, supply sources consisting mainly of wells, mapping leaks from the aqueducts in order to identify the most critical sections, and studies to use the freshwater reserves to supplement of current sources. The strategic plan envisages -40% of water losses by a programme of CAPEX and OPEX focused on this matter. In organisational terms, in January 2018, a new structure was established aimed to implement the plan to reduce water losses.
