The analysis of the European population not connected to urban and other wastewater treatment plants by country in 2023 reveals significant disparities across nations. Kosovo leads with 79.11% of its population unconnected, followed by Serbia at 52.73%, and Bosnia and Herzegovina at 36.88%. In contrast, countries like Lithuania, Slovakia, and Poland show minimal disconnection at 0.01%, 0.1%, and 0.65% respectively.
Future trends indicate a focus on improving wastewater treatment infrastructure in countries with high unconnected populations. Growth in urbanization and increased environmental regulations are anticipated to drive enhancements across Europe, particularly in Eastern and South-Eastern regions.
- Kosovo and Serbia have the highest unconnected rates.
- Western European countries show lower disconnection percentages.
- Future improvements may be driven by urbanization and regulatory compliance.
