Water Utilities in Poland Industry Data and Analysis
Revenue generated by water utilities is largely determined by the water supply needs of commercial, residential and public customers, which are dictated by weather conditions and production volumes. Revenue in the Water Utilities industry is anticipated to inch upwards at a compound annual rate of 0.3% over the five years through 2025 to €115.9 billion, including a projected 0.1% growth in 2025. With customers across Europe striving to consume less water and using smart meters to track water use, revenue has remained relatively stable. A sizeable drop in revenue in the two years through 2020 can be attributed to the COVID-19 outbreak hitting manufacturers’ production and leading to a decline in demand for water suppliers. Extreme weather and high inflation levels have pushed up operating costs, constraining profit growth. At the same time, growth in the number of data centres across Europe in recent years has contributed to growing water demands as data centres require vast amounts of water for cooling systems.
