Increased investment in water technology is a necessity for our future water security
The significant lack of investment into water infrastructure and technologies has greatly contributed to the pervasive water security and equity challenges we are grappling with today. While water scarcity is often (incorrectly) labeled as an issue isolated to developing world countries, it is in fact a growing global phenomenon that continues to dominate headlines across the world, like in Europe, in Africa, and even here in the U.S. Our complex water challenges are only exacerbated by the combined threats posed by outdated regulations, urban population growth, a changing climate, and rapidly aging infrastructure.
But the tides may be changing. Investments into water technology and infrastructure are poised to increase significantly in the coming years, driven by government action like the U.S. Infrastructure Investment and Jobs Act of 2021, private capital investment, and the rise of innovative solutions.
Investing in water technology solutions offers attractive growth opportunities while addressing a fundamental problem facing humanity. At Epic, we're excited to be part of the solution in advancing water technologies by helping buildings and communities worldwide accelerate the adoption of water reuse strategies.
