Amsterdam City Intelligence Profile
Amsterdam's drinking water comes from two source systems outside the city and is now run by an organisation that separated from the regional water authority on 1 January 2026. Waternet produced 95 million m³ in 2024 and its plans put required capacity at 107 million m³ a year by 2030, while the city's EUR 1.04 billion climate-adaptation need remains unfunded.
