The Danes are Saving EUR 40 Million from Efficiency Improvements in the Water Sector

The demand for efficiency improvements in 2018 will result in the Danes saving a total of EUR 40 million on their water. Combined with the effect of previous years’ demands, it adds up to an annual saving of EUR 215 million from next year onwards.

-Danish citizens and companies save a huge amount of money when we impose demands on the water companies regarding efficiency of their operation and investments, says Minister for Industry, Business and Financial Affairs, Brian Mikkelsen.
