Evaluation of water loss and the effectiviness of their reduction - economic loss level

Original language description

ABSTRACT: Water losses are one of the most frequently cited indicators in assessing the quality and efficiency of water system operation. The assessment and reporting of water losses is different across different countries, but it is rather traditional to indicate losses through the proportion of water produced to its implementation. Currently, the standard for water companies in the Czech Republic is also to use other indicators such as unit leakage, water loss at the connection, or the indicator of Infrastructure Leakage Index (ILI), which is recommended and the methodology of its determination is further developed by the International Water Association (IWA). However, a different way of reporting losses can mean a different loss reduction priority in the same part of the water system. It is therefore necessary to take into account also the economy of water losses or the costs of their reduction as a decision criterion on the loss reduction priority. The paper focuses on the economic aspects of water loss and shows a possible approach to assessing and determining an economically acceptable level of water loss.
