The European population connected to public water supply varies significantly across countries. In 2023, Hungary, Cyprus, and Malta reported total connectivity, while Bulgaria, Belgium, and Germany were just shy of complete coverage, showcasing their commitment to water infrastructure. Conversely, countries like Bosnia and Herzegovina, Romania, and Albania have much lower connection rates, indicating room for improvement. Year-on-year variations are stable, with no significant fluctuations over the past two years. The Compound Annual Growth Rate (CAGR) indicates nominal changes over five years, making it clear that steady connectivity levels are maintained across the region.
Future trends to watch include technological innovations aimed at improving water supply and connectivity in less covered areas, particularly in the Balkans and Eastern Europe. Demand for infrastructure development and renewable energy sources might drive enhancements in these regions, while climate change impacts may also influence the geographical distribution of water supply networks.
