✨ Insights from our Isle's Attendance at the IWA's WLSG Event ✨ Isle recently had the opportunity to attend the IWA's Water Loss Specialist Group (WLSG) event, with an Italian delegation gathering 6 water utilities, IMOA, AcegasApsAmga, Lario Reti Holding, Irisacqua, Acquedotto Pugliese SpA, BIM Gestione Servizi Pubblici s.p.a., Viva Servizi Spa, Gruppo Iren Here are some key takeaways:  📌 Empowering People for Sustainable Solutions: Driving kmwater loss reduction requires a holistic approach, with a focus on continuously improving the skills of individuals within water utilities. People are pivotal in the process of enhancing water sustainability efforts.  📌 Tailored Approaches for Global Impact: Water loss management strategies should be customized to suit the unique challenges faced by both developed and developing countries. One size does not fit all, and flexibility is key to success.  📌 Moving Beyond Theory: While the methodologies for water loss management have been well-established, there's a pressing need to transition towards more cost-effective applications. It's time to translate theory into actionable solutions.  📌 Understanding the Impact: Recognizing the fundamental importance of water loss on service quality is crucial for defining network rehabilitation interventions. Improving service quality directly impacts customer satisfaction and operational efficiency.  📌 Economic Considerations: Any investment in reducing water losses must be economically viable. Understanding the potential risks and returns is essential for optimizing efficiency and sustainability.  📌 Environmental Implications: Pumping water that never reaches its intended destination has significant environmental consequences. By addressing leakage emissions, there's an opportunity to not only minimize environmental impact but also generate economic benefits. These insights underscore the importance of implementing adaptable and practical approaches that can be applied globally, ensuring sustainable water management for all. 🌍 #WaterSustainability #IWA #WLSG #GlobalImpact #EnvironmentalAwareness marco fantozzi Annalisa Gaccione Eva Martinez Diaz Víctor Arroyo

Check out our #NatureWater comment, led by #KAUST Professor Peiying Hong, where we talk about the critical role that #urbangreening can play in local and regional #revegetation efforts: particularly those being championed under the important Saudi Green Initiative. #UrbanGreening can deliver many possible benefits, from enhancing #climateresilience to making more #livablecities - all with the benefit of ready access to #waterinfrastructure.

This commentary, written together with a team of excellent colleagues, came at the perfect timing. I will be at the Saudi Green Initiative (SGI) Pavillon in COP28 (1 Dec) to discuss more about our thoughts on urban greening and how different technology can come together to maximize water efficiency while planting.

We at Lindemann would like to thank you very much for the open and very inspiring discussions. It is a particular pleasure when a visit to a trade fair turns into a friendship. The project discussions have developed further with each day. The trade fair was actually too short to cover all the topics.  Maintenance (preventive) #predictive maintenace / maintenance, #repair and service of industrial, conveyor and #logistics systems and #production machinery  Modernisation of the #logistics process, #technological upgrades, #energy efficiency optimisation, #plant life cycle management, #retrofitting of production lines  Relocation / relocation / disposal  Emergency service and emergency management 24 / 7 / 365 / 360° (#MRO & #AOG)  #Project management from planning and consulting to installation of your production and logistics systems to commissioning and training  #Customised special systems and production lines with products and components All this combined with innovative solutions that make biological processes superfluous is what fascinates us about our project. It's truly inspiring and such enthusiasm to work together for the progress in sustainable #wastewater and #sludge management.

As we commemorate World Earth Day, the Day is being celebrated throughout the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia and beyond! The environmental topics such as Reimagination, Recreation, Restoration and Regeneration resonates deeply, both globally and in Saudi Arabia as Climate Change is becoming a critical concern year by year. It is our shared obligation to repair the earth not only today but everyday we enjoy Earth or even when not enjoying it due to sever climatic circumstances here and elsewhere. Saudi Arabia is making enormous advances toward a sustainable future. The Saudi Green Initiative (SGI),as a green cornerstone of Vision 2030, is a comprehensive strategy for combating desertification, lowering carbon emissions, and protecting biodiversity. Initiatives such as planting 10 billion trees, generating renewable energy sources, and promoting clean technologies are causing good impact Insha’Allah. The SGI is more than just a national initiative; it is a regional one. The ambitious Middle East Green Initiative, led by Saudi Arabia, intends to achieve a regionally coordinated response to environmental concerns. Collaboration on a grand scale is critical for establishing a long-term influence that benefits the globe. Public Investment Fund (PIF) alone, with its own projects and ambitious goals through different sustainability strategies, offers tremendous chances! Everyone can play a role in building a greener future, from participating in large-scale renewable energy initiatives at NEOM to enhancing sustainable urban development solutions in New Murabba and contributing to Red Sea Global's regenerative tourism experiences and the future plans that will see light in the coming years connecting all efforts towards working collectively to a greener tomorrow going from “less bad” practices to “more good” actions! What are your thoughts on World Earth Day? How can we, as individuals and professionals, contribute to a more sustainable future? #WorldEarthDay #SGI #MGI #Sustainability

Today is #WorldWaterDay! World Water Day celebrates water and inspires action to tackle the global water crisis. In Denmark, we take pride in our heritage of resilience and innovation, evident since the times of our Viking ancestors who mastered the ability to navigate the treacherous seas. Today, we continue this legacy by actively contributing to global efforts, advocating for the sustainable management of freshwater resources.   Water is our most valuable resource. It sustains life, nourishes ecosystems, drives economies, and is essential for the well-being of every individual and community on our planet.
Denmark is one of the world's leading countries when it comes to the development and supply of solutions and technologies within the water sector. In 2018, the Danish Trade Council in Dubai initiated the comprehensive Water Efficiency Middle East Alliance (#WEMA) water alliance. WEMA represents the Danish Utility, Aarhus Vand, and a number of Danish Water Technology companies. Together, we represent a holistic view of water infrastructure throughout society, focusing on efficiently saving water and producing energy, turning wastewater into renewable energy, producing electricity, biogas and recover other valuable resources from the sludge, e.g. phosphorus. Many Danish wastewater utilities are net producers of green energy, producing more energy than they consume. We engage in partnerships, share knowledge/ training and conduct feasibility studies with local stakeholders and water authorities in UAE and KSA with the aim of saving water and energy and a greener tomorrow.
