The public water supply to households in Switzerland stood at 515.3 million cubic meters in 2023. In 2024, this is forecasted to be 515.1 million cubic meters, subsequently decreasing slightly each year to 514.3 million cubic meters by 2028. This forecast indicates a very modest downward trend in water supply volumes.
Year-on-year variations illustrate a negligible decrease of approximately 0.04-0.06% annually from 2024 to 2028. Over the last two years (2022-2023), the variation in water supply was minimal, aligning with the preceding period of marginal fluctuations.
The compounded annual growth rate (CAGR) for the forecast period (2024-2028) shows virtually no significant change, reflecting the stability of water supply to Swiss households.
Future trends to watch for include potential impacts of climate change on water resources, changes in population growth and habits, advancements in water conservation technologies, and shifts in policies related to resource management. Monitoring these factors will be instrumental in anticipating further trends and adjustments in public water supply strategies.
