Croatia struggles with massive water losses

Kategorie: Branche
Thema: Water Solutions
Autor: Jonas Völker

According to an article released by the The Dubrovnik Times, the reason for the water loss lies on the fact that "the vast majority of the water pipes throughout the fresh water system are older than 50 years old meaning a huge problem with leakages".
Withdrawing money from the available European Union funds could be a possible solution for improving the system; another alternative would be the unification of utility companies – Croatia has approximately 200 of them.
The news portal Total Croatia News has also published a similar article about the topic.
