ACCIONA has been awarded the contract for operational and engineering services to enhance the efficiency of 1,165 kilometres of drinking water supply networks in three areas of the country: San José, the Greater Metropolitan Area of Guadalupe, and the districts of Guácimo and Limón on the Atlantic coast.

The contract covers: a first phase of analysis and design of hydraulic models and network sectorization, and then a series of improvements will be implemented to optimize the operation of the system, including the large-scale installation of meters, the incorporation of macro-meters and pressure-reducing valves, as well as the implementation of control systems for fraud detection.

This will reduce the number of water leaks and speed up their detection and repair, minimising drinking water losses with the resulting economic and environmental benefit.
