In 2023, the share of the population in France not connected to public sewerage or independent wastewater treatment facilities stood at approximately 18.8%. The forecasted increase indicates a small but steady upward trend: 18.85% in 2024, then marginally rising each consecutive year to 19.04% by 2028, showing a CAGR of about 0.25% per annum.
Year-on-year, these increments suggest a need for strategic enhancement in France’s wastewater management infrastructure to reverse this trend.
Future trends to watch for include government initiatives aiming to extend sewerage infrastructure, technological advancements in independent wastewater treatment, and policy shifts that could influence these forecasts.
