• W2520793480 abstract "Civil Engineering Department, University of Thessaly, Pedion Areos, GR 38334, Volos, Greece(Received 6 January 2009; final version received 15 July 2010)The need for efficient water resources management is currently more pressing than ever, considering populationgrowth and increased reliability requirements, under climate change conditions. On average, one-third of the totalwater abstracted for urban uses is being lost due to leaks and breaks occurring in water distribution networks. Thismeans that significant amounts of water and revenues are being lost, forcing water utilities to consider developingeffective water loss and Non-Revenue Water reduction strategies. Additionally, all water utilities operating in EUcountries should, by the end of 2010, develop and implement appropriate water pricing policies that will guaranteethe recovery of the full cost of the water being used. This strict obligation makes the reduction of water losses aneven more urgent goal that the water utilities have to achieve. The first step towards all the above-mentioned goals isto safely evaluate the performance level of the water network. Thus, the IWA Task Forces on Water Losses andPerformance Indicators (PIs) developed specific tools (e.g., the standard international water balance and variousPIs), to help water utilities use a common language that will assist know-how and experience exchange through aneffective benchmarking process. The paper presents the results of using the above-mentioned IWA tools, in the caseof the Larisa city water distribution network in Greece. This is the first time that such an attempt has taken place inGreece. During this process, the problems faced and the ways to tackle them are analyzed, focusing on the role ofkey factors that had to do with local conditions. Larisa’s results are compared to data available from similar cases.Sensitivity analysis was used to check the impact of the variables’ uncertainty to the results. Finally, water lossreduction measures are proposed towards an effective pressure management strategy and a proactive pipemaintenance policy based on safely estimating the pipes’ optimum replacement time.Keywords: urban water distribution networks; water balance; PIs" @default.
