Project summary
Climate change puts pressure on the availability of our current drinking water sources. Unlocking new and sustainable drinkable water sources for households and industry is fundamental for climate resilience. NEW WATER addresses this challenge. Partners in Belgium, The Netherlands, France and Germany are joining forces to unlock 3 alternative sources: wastewater, rainwater and polluted surface water.
The NEW WATER consortium will deploy both centralized and decentralized pilot installations. These will generate valuable insights into technological, regulatory, and communication aspects (social acceptance), as well as financial and organizational considerations related to viable business cases.
