Triniti has advised the OECD on a study of sustainable water services in Estonia.
According to Triniti, in 2018, a "Development of Strategies toward a Sustainable Water Sector" survey "was completed at the request of the Estonian Association of Water Companies, which concluded that rural municipality-based water business is not sustainable and only 4 counties are sustainable in the county-based water utilities. However, voluntary consolidation has not delivered the expected results – 3 to 4 water companies that serve larger cities can manage sustainably in Estonia."
In order to resolve this issue, the "Analyses and Action Plan towards Sustainable Water Services in Estonia" project was commissioned by the Estonian Ministry of the Environment under which research and advice are provided by the OECD.
The Triniti team included Senior Associate Ain Kalme.
