Central & Eastern European Residential Water Meters Market

“***”

“With the the transition to market economies, and privatisation of previously state-owned networks there is a need for full cost recovery i.e. the customer is charged for the amount of water that they use. Metering is becoming increasingly popular as supply companies maintain and improve supply infrastructure. Water price must reflect these investments”.
