According to data reported under the Water Framework Directive (WFD), in 18% of the RBDs, water tariffs and other revenues recover 100% or more of the financial costs for the provision of water supply and/or sanitation services. In 57% of the RBDs financial cost recovery ranges between 80% - 100%, and in 24% of the RBDs financial cost recovery is lower than 80%. The lowest financial cost recovery is observed in RBDs of Belgium, Bulgaria, Croatia, Greece, Luxembourg, Portugal and Spain.

    Reason for low cost recovery: either tariffs are too low (political reason, social reason…) or is there a large share of water losses in the infrastructure?

       We acknowledge the value of such information. However, it is beyond the scope of the planned indicator.
