Water resources management for a robust and future-proof system

Climate change is causing longer periods of drought and more intense rainfall. This increases the pressure on our water resources. Robust water resources management ensures the sustainable management of an essential and finite source of life in buildings, infrastructure projects, and regional developments. Sweco designs and builds solutions that make water and soil [link to “Healthy Soil” service] steering features in spatial development.

Figures indicate a growing need for drastic measures. Europe wants to integrate them structurally into policies, of which the Water Framework Directive and CSRD are some examples.

An integrated approach to the entire water balance sheet

Our 200 water experts map the entire water balance for industrial clients, governments, and developers:

  • Rainwater
  • Groundwater [link to “Groundwater Solutions” service]
  • Surface water
  • Wastewater [link to “Clean Water Supply & Purification” service]

We will guide you through the whole process:

Our integrated approach combines technical and environmental expertise, policy insight, strong process guidance, and an eye for participation.

Systems thinking and scaling up for cost-effective solutions

Sweco designs and builds cost-effective solutions for circular water use, reuse, infiltration, buffering and delayed discharge. We reuse process water in industry or use treated wastewater for irrigation and cooling. We optimise collective water storage in residential areas.

From a systems thinking perspective, we link water management to biodiversity, energy, health, and spatial use for value creation on multiple levels. Scaling up, by managing water at the site level, thereby acts as a catalyst, increasing efficiency and reducing the cost per cubic metre.
