Sewage Treatment Facilities in Canada - Industry Market Research Report

Clean sweep: A growing population and more businesses will provide facilities with a consistent water source

Sewage treatment facilities in Canada continue to operate at a steady pace. Facilities receive most of their funding from municipalities, which helps minimize revenue volatility. These municipal services are funded through water rates, property taxes, development charges and government contributions. Revenue is expected to fall at a CAGR of 1.4% to $7.1 billion over the five years to 2023, including a 1.3% recovery in 2023, when profit will reach 17.2%. While revenue has fallen a bit, a growing population has maintained a consistent need for sewage treatment facilities. The main dip in revenue resulted from COVID-19, as a good chunk of the commercial sector shut down for a period of time. Even so, declines were minimal as households continued to use water.
