Potential of Russian Water and Wastewater Treatment Market
Frost & Sullivan, July 2011, Pages: 156
Significant Growth Opportunities Arise for Emerging Advanced Treatment Technologies in Russian Water and Wastewater Market
The Russian water and wastewater treatment market suffered years of neglect during the Soviet era. Currently, the development of this market is being driven by the need to upgrade ageing infrastructure and improve the quality of water bodies. Refurbishment projects, as well as new investments, are being strongly supported by federal programmes and international aid agencies. This is being reinforced by the increasing involvement of private business, creating growth opportunities for manufacturers and suppliers of advanced treatment solutions. “The Russian water and wastewater treatment market is strongly driven by the increasing privatisation of public water utilities as well as growing investment and financing programmes,” notes the analyst of this research. “Insufficient treatment capacities and outdated water supply and wastewater discharge facilities have created an urgent need for infrastructure modernisation and improvement as well as the application of advanced treatment methods.”
There is a growing trend towards deploying high-end solutions and advanced technologies for water and wastewater treatment. The involvement of private investment has already begun to drive market growth, especially in the main cities of Moscow and St. Petersburg. These investments are set to cover the whole country over the forecast period, creating opportunities for the development of new projects.
Combining Local Expertise with International Resources Represents Way Forward
Inadequate governmental involvement in solving water supply and wastewater discharge issues remains a key challenge. The sector is affected by inefficient management, insufficient financing and ageing of water and wastewater infrastructure. Corruption and a lack of transparency related to tenders also negatively influence project development. “The current situation demands a constant flow of external investment,” remarks the analyst. “The fundamental aims of the reform programmes include the establishment of an efficient control system for water supply and wastewater removal as well as the creation of opportunities to attract the involvement of private business in the sector.”
Despite the harsh reality and multiple challenges present in the municipal and industrial sectors in Russia, the prospects for developing the water and wastewater treatment market over the coming years are highly opportunistic. The most successful way to gain access to market is to create a joint enterprise with Russian operators in order to combine local experience with effective international management and resources. “With increasing competition in the market, it is important to attain local operational efficiency,” concludes the analyst. “Companies averse to the risk of establishing local subsidiaries and developing their own workforce, should consider partnering with reputed local distributors that have established distribution channels.”
