Investments in water and wastewater infrastructure in the Province of Palermo (Sicily region) during the period 2017-2020.
The operation will improve the quality and reliability of integrated water services and increase operational efficiency, notably through a reduction in non-revenue water (water that has been produced and is "lost" before it reaches the customer).
The investments in the water and wastewater sector are expected to have a positive net environmental and social impact, considering their focus on compliance and resource efficiency.
