The participants who gathered at Wingspread – including representatives from utilities, industry, nonprofit organizations, architecture firms, academia and government – noted a growing receptiveness among water and wastewater utilities to consider distributed infrastructure solutions, and agreed that these solutions will play a significant role in the future of U.S. water infrastructure and will bolster efforts to create resilient, sustainable and water-secure urban communities.
The results of this gathering have come together in a new report titled Optimizing the Structure and Scale of Urban Water Infrastructure: Integrating Distributed Systems.
