In an ever-evolving market, the Danish water technology sector is coming together in China to adapt to new demands. Recently, the Water and Environment team has established an alliance structure that brings together Danish water technology companies, including industry leaders such as GRUNDFOS, AVK, and Danfoss, to navigate shifting market dynamics 🌍💧🔗 The success of Danish water technology firms in China over the past decades has been remarkable. However, as China's water sector transitions from infrastructure development to high-quality management, market demands have shifted. There is now a greater focus on cost-effective and low-carbon operation solutions rather than individual high-quality products. To meet this new market paradigm, Danish Export Association – Water China (DEA-Water China), Danish Ministery of the Environment - Environmental Protection Agnecy (DEPA) and The Trade Council’s Water and Environment Team (TC-W&E) at the Denmark in China have established a partnership on Water in China. On the basis of this extremely strong partnership, and based on the good results created through DEA’s U-S-E Water 1.0 in the past 4 years, they are ready to continue developing business opportunities in China for Danish water companies through U-S-E Water 2.0. Danish water tech, known for digital monitoring and low-energy solutions, aligns with China's sustainability goals, offering valuable contributions to green development. The first meeting of the Water Alliance on December 14, 2023, paved the way for quarterly gatherings, providing opportunities for other water tech companies to join in 2024 https://lnkd.in/ee4azA_h

Water scarcity knows no boundaries, affecting communities, ecosystems, and economies globally. Collaborative efforts between nations are essential to address this pressing issue. Showcasing latest technologies, sharing knowledge, and expertise on a global scale allows for innovative solutions to emerge. International partnerships enable the pooling of resources, both financial and intellectual, leading to the development of sustainable water management strategies. Moreover, collaboration fosters cultural exchange, promoting a deeper understanding of diverse water challenges and solutions. By learning from each other's successes and failures, countries can adapt and implement proven methods, tailoring them to their unique contexts. International collaborations also facilitate the dissemination of best practices, encouraging responsible water use and conservation practices worldwide. Furthermore, joint research initiatives and cross-border projects enable the development of cutting-edge technologies, enhancing water quality monitoring, purification, and distribution systems. Collaborative efforts create a supportive environment for policy development and implementation, ensuring equitable access to water resources for all. In essence, international collaborations serve as a catalyst for fostering global solidarity in the pursuit of sustainable water resource management, paving the way for a water-secure future for generations to come.

💧 Did you know Denmark's journey to water efficiency and sustainability began over 40 years ago? From Viking expeditions to being recognized as one of the most innovative and energy-efficient water sectors, Denmark has undergone a significant transformation. This change is not only about adopting new technologies but also reflects a shift towards valuing and protecting our natural resources. It is through years of dedicated effort, strategic regulation, and public-private collaboration that Denmark has established a high standard in water management.    In our latest article in the American Public Works Association Reporter, "From sink to sea: A digital and automated Danish water sector," we dive into: 👉 Denmark’s regulatory foundation 👉 Sustainable water management practices 👉 Innovative waste-to-energy technologies 👉 Data transparency and benchmarking For a deeper dive into the strategies and technologies that have positioned Denmark at the forefront of the water sector, read the full article here 👉 https://lnkd.in/djDrT2DD #DenmarkinUSA #WaterManagement #Sustainability #APWA

In her capacity as the Dutch Special Envoy for International Water Affairs, Meike van Ginneken visited India in July to give strategic direction and prioritise the initiatives under the SWP that align with national priorities and international commitments. 💬 “We need to let knowledge flow like water because if we come up with solutions in isolation, it will take decades or centuries to solve our water crisis. But if we learn from each other and cooperate, I am sure we will all become better at water management, and we will be able to face our water crises in the years to come.” | Meike van Ginneken Under the SWP, the Netherlands is engaged with various Indian states and municipalities to implement water related projects including the States of Kerala, Uttar Pradesh, and West Bengal. ℹ Read about these projects on Dutchwatersector.com: https://lnkd.in/eNZDWV2p.
