Production cost of 1 m³ water in Israel

Higher water costs caused by entry into the era of desalination requires a wise tariff policy

(4) Water Economy


Instructions concerning the duty to install water saving fittings in buildings-part of the planning and construction law (dual flush tanks, shower heads and taps equipped with economizers, etc)

Municipalities are required that water loss in the system will not exceed 15%. NRW in Israel is around only 12%- half than the European average. In developing countries the loss often reaches over 30%.

Water meters should be installed at all

consumers facilities and replaced every 5 years.

Water Efficiency


Annual sewage average: 520 mcm per year 475 mcm is collected and treated (91%) 360 mcm is reclaimed for irrigation (75%)

The aim is to reach up to 500 mcm by 2015

Israel has devoted numerous resources to the development

of waste water treatment and reclamation, applying

innovative secondary and tertiary treatment.
