Обзор
The global water security and infrastructure management market addresses one of the most structurally durable investment themes in global infrastructure: the treatment, distribution, and management of water resources amid aging developed-market infrastructure, accelerating water stress in emerging markets, and rising regulatory and consumer demand for reliable water access. The market was worth approximately USD 303.8 billion in 2026, and is projected to grow at a CAGR of 6.7% to reach approximately USD 420.2 billion by 2031.
In 2025-2026, Veolia Environnement acquired full ownership of its Water Technologies segment by buying out its minority partner CDPQ's stake for EUR 1.5 billion, consolidating what the company now describes as a 'global WaterTech segment of approximately EUR 5 billion of revenues.' This is a genuine structural development for the sector's largest player, reflecting continued strategic conviction in water technology as a distinct, high-growth business line worth full ownership and operational control.
