#18 In EuropeRevenue in the Water Utilities industry is anticipated to contract at a compound annual rate of 3.1% over the five years through 2024 to €105.9 billion, including a projected 3.5% dip in 2024. Revenue generated by water utilities is largely determined by the water supply needs of commercial, residential and public customers, which are dictated by weather conditions and production volumes. With customers across Europe striving to consume less water and using smart meters to track water use, revenue is edging downwards. A sizeable drop in revenue in the two years through 2021 can be attributed to the COVID-19 outbreak hitting manufacturers’ production and leading to a decline in demand for water suppliers. Extreme weather and high inflation levels have pushed up operating costs, constraining profit growth. At the same time, sales of water are being supported by rising temperatures, making drought conditions more frequent. Farmers are leaning more on water supplies for irrigation, while an expanding European population is driving up private water consumption.
