Pilot Projects

Within the scope of the Pilot Projects, the Consortium Partners provide free support
to water supply and/or wastewater management utilities, operating in Portugal,
interested in making investments to improve the energy efficiency of their
systems.

In July 2024, a cooperation protocol was established between WENexus and Be Water, which sets out the scope of the Pilot Projects to be developed with this management utility and the support to be provided by the WENexus team.
