New Report Shows Nearly 772 Million Litres Of Water Lost Annually Due To LeakagesWith rising water scarcity, increasing tariffs, aging infrastructure, and stricter regulations, property owners are under growing pressure to better understand their water consumption.
Leading water data provider Smartvatten has published its fourth Annual Water Report, analysing water usage and conditions in residential and commercial buildings.
The report draws on proprietary water consumption data from 5,370 properties in 36 countries monitored continuously for more than 24 months. Additionally, the report utilizes global water price and resource data.
Smartvatten’s report shows that nearly 772 million litres of water were lost to leakages over the course of a year, an estimated cost of at least 3 million euros. On average, each leak resulted in over 13,000 litres of wasted water, with the biggest incident causing water loss of 18,8 million litres – increasing financial strain and raising safety concerns for homeowners.
Hospitality properties are the leakiest, averaging 22 leaks per year and 485,000 litres lost annually. Although they represent just 4.5% of properties, they make up 11% of total leak volume due to continuous use and delayed detection.
Retail and office spaces frequently experience moderate leaks due to complex plumbing and nighttime inactivity. However, a quick intervention can prevent over 230,000 litres of annual loss. Sports facilities have the largest leaks per incident, averaging 33,000 litres, often because idle periods let leaks go unnoticed.
Industrial sites see fewer but larger leaks, often from aging infrastructure and machinery.
Healthcare facilities lose 130,000 litres yearly, 77% of which stems from long-term leaks, making real-time monitoring critical. Residential properties report the highest number of leaks, though most are relatively minor, highlighting the need for tenant awareness and preventive maintenance.
Meanwhile, the report also shows how water prices have risen all across Northern Europe. In the UK, for example, costs increased by more than 8 percent year-over-year. The average increase in Europe is close to 10 percent higher between 2023 and 2024, compared to a general inflation rate of 4-5 percent in most of the region.
This upward trajectory in prices can be directly attributed to factors such as new tariffs, water scarcity, and aging infrastructure, which present significant challenges for both households and enterprises alike. Water scarcity affects various river basins across the EU, where urban population density and water abstraction for public supply, energy, and industry are significant factors. Over the last decade, droughts have also increased in frequency and severity, impacting seasonal water availability.
Karl Jepsson, Chief Strategy & Product Officer at Smartvatten commented:
“Climate change, pollution, and an ever-increasing population are profoundly changing the European water landscape. Water shortages have already led to property devaluation across Northern, Central and Southern Europe, and investors are now prioritizing sustainable assets that mitigate these risks. Both the European Union and the United Kingdom have introduced legislation demanding careful management and transparent reporting when it comes to water, and the EU just adopted the first-ever Water Resilience Strategy, highlighting that a serious focus on sustainable water management is urgently required.”
Real-time monitoring of water consumption has a measurable impact: according to the report, properties equipped with modern water consumption monitoring systems collectively saved over 1 million litres of water. In addition to reducing water waste, water monitoring can significantly lower a property’s energy bills.
Smartvatten’s report also details the energy-intensive process behind producing clean water. Before reaching the tap, water must be extracted, purified, transported, and distributed -- each step consuming energy. After use, it must be treated before safely re-entering the natural water cycle. Households further increase energy demand by heating water: around 40% of household water use is hot, with higher temperatures requiring more energy.
Reducing water consumption directly lowers energy costs. On average, a 20% reduction in water use results in approximately 5% lower energy bills. With rising water and energy prices, cutting water waste is an increasingly effective way to save money and reduce environmental impact.
“Real estate owners can save hundreds of thousands of euros annually by taking water consumption and leakage prevention seriously. Regulations will not ease, water scarcity is not getting better, and infrastructure keeps aging – the time to act is now to ensure we have fresh water in the future,” Karl Jepsson concludes.

Scottish Water Makes 300-Ha Strategic Land Purchase To Protect Water Quality At Talla ReservoirAn 80-hectare (ha) native woodland creation scheme at Talla Reservoir in the Borders is being planned to protect the source water quality for thousands of customers in Edinburgh in the face of climate change.
In order to carry out the scheme, Scottish Water has for the first time made a 300-ha strategic land purchase aimed at securing the water quality of the catchment well into the future.
The ‘Water Woods’ project will see thousands of native broadleaves such as aspen, rowan, oak, alder and downy birch planted at the site towards the south eastern end of the reservoir, as well as work to enrich existing woodland above the northern shore and to plant montane woodland at higher altitudes.
The aim is to help stabilise the soil surrounding the reservoir so that less organic matter is washed into the water during periods of extreme rainfall which are increasing in frequency due to climate change. This will make the treatment process simpler and less energy intensive.
The trees will also provide an element of resilience against drought by holding more water in the ground, which is then slowly released into the reservoir.
A total of 55 hectares of the scheme will be made up of montane woodland, making it one of the largest montane schemes in the Southern Uplands. The important habitat has almost vanished in Scotland due to grazing by red deer and sheep and will have a positive impact on biodiversity in the area.
Net Zero General Manager at Scottish Water Elise Cartmell said:
“This is a significant woodland creation project which marks a strategic approach to creating water sources that are resilient to the impacts of climate change.
“By purchasing this key area of land surrounding the reservoir and planting native woodland, we can help limit the amount of organic matter being washed into the reservoir during extreme rainfall and ensure we continue to produce high quality drinking water for our customers in Edinburgh.”
Scottish Water woodland creation programme manager Stephen Garbett added:
“The work we are planning for this area builds on the back of other local schemes such as the one to the west of the reservoir led by the Borders Forest Trust – this allows us to link up habitats and create wildlife corridors, which has significant benefits for biodiversity.
“The scheme would also give a very substantial boost to montane woodland in the Borders. These are the smaller species of trees and shrubs that thrive in higher altitudes at the tops of mountains and support a range of plants and invertebrates, as well as providing foraging opportunities for birds and mammals.”

Thames Water intends to invest £840 million in 10 capital delivery projects at seven waste treatment sites and two water treatment sites to improve infrastructure resilience, environmental performance and manage population growth, as part of its 2025-2030 capital delivery investment.
The UK’s largest water and waste water company plans to deliver the 10 projects which form an essential part of its record infrastructure improvement plans over the next five years, with the aim of having signed agreements by March 2026.
The Procurement Specific Questionnaire follows a preliminary market engagement process which sought feedback from interested organisations to help Thames Water ensure that the procurement approach is informed, practical and aligned with market capabilities and expectations.
Thames Water said it is now one step closer to delivering the £840 million worth of major capital projects aimed at enhancing its wastewater and water treatment sites, following the publication of its Procurement Specific Questionnaire (PSQ) for suppliers.
The 10 major capital projects span seven wastewater treatment sites and two water treatment sites, and are designed to improve infrastructure resilience, environmental performance, and support population growth across London and the Thames Valley.
Thames Water is now inviting potential suppliers and contractors to demonstrate, via the PSQ, that they meet the essential criteria to progress to the next stage of procurement for these projects.
As part of its ongoing engagement with the supply chain, Thames Water also welcomed prospective bidders to its Reading offices on 18 September, as part of the formal launch of its procurement process. The event provided an overview of what to expect as part of the procurement process as well as a review of the outcomes of the company’s preliminary market engagement phase.
Tim Horton, Major Projects and Programmes Director at Thames Water, said:
“Our purpose is to deliver life's essential service, so our customers, communities and the environment can thrive. We’re embarking on a record £20 billion investment over the next five years to transform our infrastructure, enhance environmental performance, and deliver better services for our customers.
“Building long-term, collaborative relationships with experienced delivery partners, so we can deliver at pace, is critical to the success of our AMP 8 programme.
“The launch of our Procurement Specific Questionnaire and recent supplier engagement event mark important milestones in our journey to strengthen our procurement process and ensure we’re ready for the formal bidding phase in November.”
The projects form only one part of Thames Water’s ambitious £20 billion infrastructure investment programme and will include the following sites:

Dedham-Westwood Water District Awarded More Than $4.9 Million From 3M Pfas SettlementThe Dedham-Westwood Water District will receive more than $4.9 million in settlement funds from 3M Company through a lawsuit filed in Feb 2023 against several manufacturers of aqueous film-forming foam (AFFF). The suit addressed the presence of per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS) that have contaminated groundwater supplies in the district’s service area.
The first disbursement of $984,124 will be received this month, with a further $2.24 million due by the end of 2025. The remaining balance will be provided in smaller annual payments over eight years, concluding in 2033.
PFAS have been used for decades in AFFF, industrial processes, and the manufacture of thousands of household and commercial products due to their heat-, stain- and water-resistant properties.
The district conducts monthly PFAS testing at both of its treatment plants. Results show current levels remain below the maximum contaminant threshold set by the Massachusetts Department of Environmental Protection, which is 20 parts per trillion on a quarterly basis.
“Design plans for PFAS treatment at the White Lodge Water Treatment Facility are shovel-ready, and construction will begin shortly,” said executive director Blake Lukis. “Although these funds will help with the costs associated with removing PFAS, they only cover a fraction of the overall remediation.”
Construction at White Lodge is expected to cost around $15.55 million. The district has secured a 20-year interest-free loan from the Massachusetts Clean Water Trust, which, together with the settlement funds, will reduce the financial burden on ratepayers.
PFAS are entirely man-made chemicals that have impacted surface and groundwater across the US, leading to hundreds of lawsuits by water providers against manufacturers. These are being heard under a Multidistrict Litigation process supervised by a federal judge in South Carolina.
“We are honoured to have helped the Dedham-Westwood Water District assert its rights to ensure the quality and availability of water resources,” said Ken Sansone, senior partner at SL Environmental Law Group. “It is the corporations whose products contaminated the water that should shoulder the clean-up costs. By acting early and filing a lawsuit before the drinking water settlements were reached, the district secured a higher settlement payment. This increase, known as a litigation bump, rewards proactive action.”
The district is represented by SL Environmental Law Group, which focuses on water contamination litigation on behalf of public and private water providers. The firm has recovered more than $1.2 billion from corporate polluters for its clients.

Yorkshire Water Kicks Off £250 Million Amp8 Storm Overflow Improvement Plan For South YorkshireContract partners, Ward & Burke, will start work to create a new underground storm tank to hold excess wastewater and reduce storm overflows discharging into the river Dearne during periods of prologued and excessive rainfall.
The programme immediately follows a £180 million investment over the past two years, which has helped to reduce storm overflows discharging into watercourses by 12% in 2024, compared to 2023.
The upgrade is the first of a £95 million investment package to upgrade 28 Combined Sewer Overflows (CSO) across Barnsley - one of nearly five hundred separate schemes - to improve storage capacity across Yorkshire over the next five years.
Tom Broderick, senior project manager, Yorkshire Water, said:
“We made great strides in reducing the number of storm overflow incidences in the last year. But we know there is more to do, and we are working hard to make sure that we tackle storm overflows operating more often than we and our customers would like.
“This marks the first of 92 projects across South Yorkshire to bring down the number discharges over the next five years. It’s part of our largest ever environmental investment and we are really pleased to start this huge phase of work here in Darton, Barnsley.”
The new storage tank will hold up to a capacity of 190m3 of water - the equivalent of 1,266 bathtubs – holding the excess wastewater will reduce the number of overflows discharging into the river and help to improve water quality of the Dearne. Flows are sent for treatment once capacity in the network has returned to normal levels. The upgrade At Darton Church Street should be completed by May 2026.
